The horse as a mirror of our emotions
The Therapist offers equestrian trips to Mongolia or Patagonia. We decided to explain to you the healing power of horses.
Horses have the ability to transform us in five ways:
1. They soothe the nervous system. A horse's heart rate and breathing have a natural regulatory effect on ours. At their side, our pulse slows down and our mind calms down. It's a return to balance that no screen or studio can offer.
2. They reflect our emotions honestly. Horses don't respond to words, but to energy. Their sensitivity helps us recognize our own emotions, whether it's anxiety, fear, or openness, and invites us to lead with calm and grounded presence.
3. They restore trust and confidence. Riding or simply connecting to a horse means entering into a dialogue based on mutual respect. This process rebuilds self-confidence and teaches the strength of soft leadership.
4. They bring us back to the present moment. When you ride a horse, there is no past or future, only rhythm, breathing, and movement. It is a meditation in motion that awakens awareness and releases mental tensions.
5. They reconnect us to nature and to ourselves. Horses carry the wisdom of the wild world within them. Through them, we remember our place in nature, grounded, intuitive, and at peace.
