This is an eloquent way to paint a picture of how and why utilizing horses in human healing is so incredibly powerful! Stay tuned for what is being created by On The Path Equine at Raven Sun Ranch!
Much respect to you Josh Nichol🙏🏻
The energy that we give off is a demonstration of the work we have done within ourselves. As we mentor our horses into releasing their natural self preserving thoughts, I encourage you to ask yourselves how much are you doing the same? Are you living life in fear, anxiety and tension? If so, you know what your horse feels as they venture through life and attempt new things and struggle. We all may struggle with different things but the point is how well we are able to set an example of handling stress and anxiety. The way you handle yourself gives off a different energy that your horse picks up on. So the question is, what are you leading your horse to energetically? Are you being an example of calm thoughtfulness or anxiety and fear? This may be the first time you have considered your responsibility when it comes to how you lead your horses energetically. I encourage you to begin with your own personal mindfulness practice so that you are able to be an example, not by your “words” (what you are asking your horse) but by your presence! This will also create an empathy while working your horses as you become connected to the challenges that working through your fear and anxieties can entail!
