What is "Natural Lifemanship" and why am I hosting their events at my farm?
Last year, a friend of mine who works in Equine Therapy asked if she could use my facility to host an event with a group that teaches a unique method of Equine Psychotherapy. I was a little cautious... they would need to use my horses for the event and I'm careful with teachers that I bring to the farm, especially if they will be using my horses.
However, I really wanted to support my friend and her new therapy work so I agreed. As the weekend of the event drew closer we worked hard to get temporary round pens set up and to prepare for the group coming in - mostly counselors, therapists, and social workers. As the facility host, I was invited to participate for free, so as the event started Friday morning I planned to stick around and watch for a few hours, but honestly, I didn't think there would be too much information that would apply to me. I teach riding and horsemanship, not therapy.
Three days later, I viewed my riding and training, actually my life and all my relationships with a completely new perspective. I was riveted through all three days of the Natural Lifemanship Training.
What is taught here applies to everyone. You will learn how our brains develop, and what affect that development has on our behavior, our relationships, and our life. You'll learn how to interact with a horse in a new way - and understand the subtleties of communication... such as how to pick up on a subtle request from your horse.
You will also learn the science behind what makes the bond between horse and human so special and why horses are so effective in psychotherapy.
Whether you are involved with Equine Therapy, are interested in improving your relationship with your horse, or are simply fascinated by brain science and how it can improve your life and relationships, you will love the Natural Lifemanship Trainings!
