Why is Equine Guided Education so effective?
One reason is that it’s body centered. We’ve learned how to dismiss the wisdom of our bodies in this head-centered culture. This kind of learning teaches us to pay attention. Participants move their bodies in the arena or the pasture. They smell, touch, see, and hear the horses. The horse picks up what is congruent or incongruent in the person’s body through its own body and mirrors it for us to clearly see.
