Horses are social animals, very much like humans. Their peer structure is observable
and identifiable. Yet horse and humans differ in at least one key aspect: Humans are
natural predators, while horses are prey animals. Prey animals are constantly scanning
their surroundings for potential threats, making them excellent barometers for how
human actions speak louder than words. The size and power of the horse also is
naturally intimidating to many people. Accomplishing a task in spite of these fears help
people develop confidence. Horses have the ability to mirror what human body
language is telling them. They help us to learn to express gratitude. We never walk
away from our horses without thanking them for time spent and lessons learned.

What is Horses Helping Humans?
| experience by engaging people with horses, offering them the opportunity to fully participate with their mind, body and spirit. Experiential education is learning by doing with reflection. No previous horse experience is necessary. |
| Why Horses? |
| Barley & Patti (advisors) |
| It's About Change.... |
| Horses Helping Humans is an experiential approach designed to bring people a better understanding of how they present themselves in the world and how changes in their beliefs and subsequently their behavior can create positive changes in their lives. Horses and Humans operate from many different modes of consciousness. We have our reactive mode, this is seen in the horse by their flight response to what they perceive as danger or as our default behavior. We have our thinking mode; this is displayed by a horse standing still, ears perked up and licking their lips and our contemplation (being in our head). We have our intuitive mode; this is displayed by a horse who is working with humans and seeks out the individual they are connected to, sensing who they can help. This their gut feeling as well as ours. We often operate from these modes of consciousness unintentionally. Do you know what modes you operate from? |
| It's About Connection.... |
| Horses Helping Humans is for people seeking a relationship with horses and discovering more about themselves. These beautiful animals have so much to teach us about intimacy, boundaries, our emotions and our own intuitive abilities. Being with horses is about being in the present moment, mindfulness, simplicity, encouraging and enhancing our spiritual connection with all of life and the world around us. |

emotionally. At times they can be affected on all of these levels. This is why Cindy
