I have found horses to be as interesting and aware as any humans I have known. I watch a school horse figure out that the rider on him is a frightened beginner and he will handle his "cargo" with compassion and gentleness. A horse that becomes startled can go out of his way to avoid crushing his human handler... or, in indifference; step all over someone in the way. I truly believe that horses respond to situations involving humans with the same degree of awareness and consideration that is metered out to them by these humans... I've seen it demonstrated so often that it just must be fact.

horse sense

Horses Heal Us
If you can get you out of the way when you come to your horse, he will show you how to shift your position within the field to a place that supports and nurtures your soul. It's all about how you feel and you empower those feelings and they create your reality and your horse is ready to show you how to feel magnificent.
Compassion not Compulsion
In all of our relationships, the light of integrity is held by Compassion. If we consider something other than our own motives and agendas, we can open to living a real life outside of the world of illusion. With animals, we will establish communication instead of domination. With loved ones, we will share our very souls. With humanity, we will become beacons of reason and unconditional love. We will shift ourselves and those who resonate with Nature to a higher kind of love and life where the demoralizing of others is simply not accepted.
