Good Lessons


We've weathered a nasty storm at Dharmahorse and are cleaning up after a week of wind, ice, below zero temperatures and constant hauling of drinking water to horses in buckets... hot mashes, constant hay feeding, double blankets and leg wraps... keeping dogs safe inside, water faucets dripping to keep from freezing solid... trying to conserve propane with thermostat at 61... rolling blackouts by electric company so the power would not go off for days!

WOW, we made it through with flying colors and feel so grateful for so many things! Just before the storm we had visitors and Majic was our angel caretaker as he gave gentle rides. Then I judged a horse show and thought I was cold, HA! Everything is relative - and I think that was the lesson of the storm. Appreciation and awareness - good lessons.

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.
