Benefits of an Equine Assisted Process

It’s the process of assessing existing thoughts and emotions, observing behavioural patterns and discerning hidden saboteurs and blind-spots, where the horse’s feedback can direct you to solutions perfect for your current life situations.

REAL LIFE METAPHORS

Horses will show you exactly what’s on your mind

The equine assisted activities require in-the-moment interaction, which provides participants with the opportunity to apply everyday life skills, in the moment.

Equine assisted experiences are intense, and effectively develop non-verbal communication, assertiveness, creative thinking, problem-solving, leadership, confidence, taking responsibility, relationship skills and above all else, being authentic.

It’s a thought provoking and creative process, which can inspire you to maximize your personal potential and to improve your quality of life.

It provides greater focus and awareness of choice, through the process of becoming aware of the way you currently interpret the world around you.

It’s the process of assessing existing thoughts and emotions, observing behavioural patterns and discerning hidden saboteurs.

As prey animals, horses’ “flight” instincts, become instant mirrors and non-judgmental bio-feedback mechanisms for humans. When participants change their beliefs, horses respond differently. It provides the opportunity to identify and interpret feedback as a way of finding what is blocking you from your goals.

It’s a process of empowerment, where the feedback can direct your energies to solutions, with the understanding that there is a positive intention behind every behaviour and that there is no such thing as failure, but only feedback.

It’s a unique non-judgmental outside perspective, almost like when another person can see what’s going on behind your back, while you would need 2 mirrors to see the same.

Connecting with and directing a thousand-pound animal, in spite of fears and uncertainty, while standing on the ground, gives an incredible boost to participants’ confidence.
