The Foundations and APPROACH of Healing Horse Sanctuary
Why Horses?
There are several reasons why horses are highly effective teachers. Horses are extremely sensitive and intuitive beings, due to their instinctive nature as prey and herd animal. Their communication is mostly non-verbal in the form of body language, gestures and movements that are visually apparent. However, a significant portion of this non-verbal communication is in the form of energy. Thoughts, feelings and emotions emit energy, or 'vibes' as some call it, and these vibes are not only scientifically measurable, they are detected and interpreted by horses as information. They are able detect human emotions, even those emotions that may be suppressed in our subconscious. Horses respond to, process and reflect to us the energy we are putting out based on our emotions in the present moment. Horses teach us to use emotions as information, to effectively and to efficiently process and deal with them in a healthy manner. They mirror us and what we are truly communicating, which can often starkly contrast what we think we are communicating. Through interactions with horses, people can gain awareness and insight into patterns and develop strategies on how to be more congruent.
MORE ABOUT OUR APPROACH
Equine Guided Learning (EGL)
What is EGL?
Equine Guided Learning is a form of experiential learning in which participants partner with horses for personal growth and healing. This form of learning occurs on the ground through a variety of activities with the horses that does not include riding. There are many different types of learning opportunities and therapies involving horses. EGL is very therapeutic and fosters healing but is not considered therapy. It is a form of coaching where we partner with horses that focuses on personal awareness and self reflection in the moment.
