Book excerpt: Riding Home:The Power of Horses to Heal, Horse Nation's must read book of 2016, is the first and only book to scientifically and experientially explain why horses have the extraordinary ability to emotionally transform the lives of thousands of men, women and children, whether they are horse lovers, or suffering from deep psychological wounds. It is a book for anyone who wants to experience the joy, wonder, self-awareness and peace of mind that comes from creating a horse/human relationship, and it puts forth and clarifies the principles of today's Natural Horsemanship (or what was once referred to as "Horse Whispering") Everyone knows someone who needs help: a husband, a wife, a partner, a child, a friend, a troubled teenager, a war veteran with PTSD, someone with autism, an addiction, anyone in emotional pain or who has lost their way. Riding Home provides riveting examples of how Equine Therapy has become one of today's most effective cutting-edge methods of healing. Horses help us discover hidden parts of ourselves, whether we're seven or seventy. They model relationships that demonstrate acceptance, kindness, honesty, tolerance, patience, justice, compassion, and forgiveness. Horses cause all of us to become better people, better parents, better partners, and better friends. A horse can be our greatest teacher, for horses have no egos, they never lie, they're never wrong and they manifest unparalleled compassion. It is this amazing power of horses to heal and teach us about ourselves that is accessible to anyone and found in the pages of Tim Hayes's Riding Home. The information and lists of therapeutic and non-therapeutic equine programs, which are contained in the book, are also available at the book's website.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you can't meet Wyatt in person, then reading his book is the next best thing! Learn about The Equine Experience, developed by Wyatt Webb, it's a new form of therapy that blends horse sense with common sense. Even though Wyatt has been a practicing therapist for a number of years, his tools don't involve a leather couch, and his helpers don't arrive in suits or high heels. Of course, they wear shoes - but not the kind they sell at Bloomingdale's. ''You're going to clean some hooves,'' he tells the group, ''and you're going to groom the horse. How you relate to this animal will tell us what you've learned over the course of your lifetime concerning how you relate to all living things. Your basic training has come from learning how to treat people.'' He pauses and adds, ''remember one thing: It's not about the horse.''

My fear could rattle the nerves of even the most unflappable of equines. What happened to me? I'd ridden and trained horses for 20 years - why was I afraid? How could I overcome the unreasonable fear that kept me out of the saddle? Books always have answers! I headed for the library and found many excellent books dealing with equine fear - but what about human fear? People who have never felt fear have a difficult time understanding fear. I was going to have to solve the problem of fear myself. And it was MY problem, not my horse's. I was going to have to learn how to bombproof myself! I succeeded - I became a bombproofed human - and you can too!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new book especially written for the time-starved 21st-century horse owner! Do you day after day make a promise to train yourself and your horse to be better at something, but when you get to the barn there just doesn’t seem to be enough time? Don’t worry, what really matters is the quality of the training you do manage to fit in. It really is possible to carry out good quality, progressive training with a horse in only three minutes a day. Educator and horse trainer Vanessa Bee’s “light bulb moment” was when she realized that if a training session had a realistic goal, every horse achieved the goal in under three minutes. This led her to create techniques appropriate for use in brief digestible lessons that ultimately produce significant gains in short sessions. This refreshing new method offers 35 ground exercises, 24 ridden exercises, and 25 “real world” exercises that will get you out and about with a safe, sane, well-trained horse.

Book excerpt: Veteran and novice riders alike fear the sport they love. Fear takes many forms -- fear of injury; fear of failure; fear of performance. The authors, Dr. Jordan and Mr. De Michele, address all these fears as well as other horse related phobias with proven, psychologically based techniques.Overcoming the Fear of Riding is founded on the psychological principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), which counselors and psychologists have used successfully for three decades to help people reduce emotional distress.REBT shows how the rider can reduce anxiety, channel positive energy, and use inner thoughts to the best advantage. It helps riders end nervousness and negative thoughts that sabotage their riding experience. The book also helps post-trauma riders, whose fears may prevent them from resuming riding after an accident; competitive riders whose fears may interfere with show performance; and casual riders, who would like to derive more pleasure from leisure riding. The authors use many case studies and interviews with well-known Western and English riders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This marvelous book, borne of a unique collaboration between Dr. Allen Schoen—a world-renowned veterinarian and author—and trainer and competitor of many years Susan Gordon, introduces the 25 Principles of Compassionate Equitation. These Principles, conceived by Dr. Schoen and Gordon, are a set of developmental guidelines, encouraging a level of personal awareness that may be enacted not only through the reader's engagement with horses, but can be extended to all humans and sentient beings he or she encounters. The 25 Principles share stories and outline current, peer-reviewed studies that identify and support methods of training, handling, and caring for horses that constitute a safe, healthy, non-stressful, and pain-free environment. Through their Compassionate Equestrian program, the authors encourage all involved in the horse industry to approach training and handling with compassion and a willingness to alleviate suffering. By developing deeper compassion for their own horses, and subsequently, all equines, equestrians transcend their differences in breed preferences, riding disciplines, and training methodologies. This leads to the ability to empathize and connect more closely with the “global collective” of horses and horse people. In doing so, a worldwide community of compassionate equine practitioners and horse owners will emerge, which will not only benefit the horses: People involved with horses are found in many influential segments of society and have the potential to affect wide circles of friends, acquaintances, and co-workers from every walk of life. These are simple changes any horse person can make that can have a vast impact on the horse industry and society as a whole.

Do you wish you could ride fearlessly again? Did you have a fall or traumatic event that has left you afraid to ride? Are you tired of people asking you, "Why don't you ride your horse?", "Why aren't you winning your events anymore?" or even worse, do people tell you to sell your horse because you're not riding him/her? If you are answering yes to these questions then Riding Scared is your answer. There is a way to address your fears that do not include more training for your already trained horse or pushing yourself to just get back on and get over it. Anyone who tells you that has never been where you are. If you want to be comfortable in your saddle and not terrified every time your horse sneezes or perks up his ears you CAN do it! There is no reason to rush, there is no reason to sell your horse and there is no reason to feel ashamed or guilty. You have everything you need within you to beat your fears and ride confidently or compete successfully again. Let's get collected! In this book you'll discover a nine-step program on: - How to identify the fears holding you back and how those fears got there. - How to keep those fears out of your way for good and the tools you use to combat them. - How to forgive yourself and let go of feeling ashamed or guilty. - How to use your God-given gifts to find a deeper connection to yourself and your horse. - How to change your mindset to release your fears around your horse, riding, and competing. - How to use your intuition, visualize your perfect ride and use nature to your advantage. Miranda Velasquez is very familiar with the fears associated with getting back on your horse after a traumatic event. She has been confidently back in the saddle after using these methods herself for the last ten years. She has designed this book to be like a combo of going to a Buck Brannaman or Karen Rohlf clinic mixed with Gabrielle Bernstein's book "The Universe Has Your Back".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know there is an area of your brain known as the “Lizard Brain” that thinks only about the immediate moment and your means of survival? Yes, in certain circumstances, your “Rational Brain” can effectively “shut down” and you are at the mercy of a reptile ... dry-mouthed, sweating, queasy, unable to think clearly—even though you know better. When does the Lizard Brain run the show? It can happen in any number of unfamiliar, uncomfortable, challenging, or “stressful” riding situations. But here’s the thing: with the right kind of training, you can learn to manage the reptile within, which leads to greater confidence with horses, better riding performance, and ultimately, happiness at the barn, at shows, and everywhere in between. Andrea Monsarrat Waldo teaches you how to: handle uncomfortable emotions, such as fear, anger, anxiety, and embarrassment; hone your mental game and focus your riding time to get the most out of your hours in the saddle; care for your emotional injuries the same way you would care for an injured horse; and produce a state of “Focused Calm” and tap into the skills you have (whether you know it or not!) to ensure an outstanding ride.

Book excerpt: "De-Spook" Your Horse An umbrella opening, a tree branch creaking, a tarp flapping in the wind, a dusty shadow in the back of the barn -- what seems benign to the human eye often terrifies a horse. His immediate response? Screech to a halt, buck, twirl, and run like the dickens! What can a rider do but hang on? In fact, there is plenty a rider can do to "de-spook" a horse, and Teaching Your Horse to Overcome Fears tells you how. Following the advice of renowned trainers such as John Lotito, Pat Parelli, and Mark Rashid, you'll learn how to reprogram your horse's fear response so that, when startled, he may unnerve you, but he won't unseat you. These trainers offer proven tips on training your horse in a manner that is gentle, effective, and long-lasting. And you'll delve into the most exciting "alternative" therapies for high-strung horses, including herbal remedies, aromatherapy, shamaniac healing, and body work.

Book excerpt: The definition of "fear" and our response to it remains the same, although our circumstances may be quite different in these times. Fear is that unpleasant feeling inside us brought on by the perception of danger. It does not seem to matter if the danger is real or just imagined in our mind. Sometimes fear makes us unable to function even when we love something dearly. Although the grandmother grew up back in the 1960s when life was simple, compared with the electronic filled lifestyle we have today, her wisdom had an effect on her youngest grandson in 2013. By sharing her experiences and fear of her own pony more than fifty years ago, she encouraged him to overcome his fear. She helped him to fully understand what happened, why it happened, and how to move on. May this touching two-part story about the author and her grandson, who both loved horses but became afraid of them, encourage you to face your fear, whatever it may be.
