It’s so lovely to see our community of horse lovers growing 😊 I’m new to Skool, and the concept of telling the world about your accomplishments is quite foreign to me 🤣 I think it’s because I’m from a generation raised to believe that talking about what you’ve achieved was boastful and baaaaad! 😳 So, because we’re not doing THAT anymore, please tell us all about the amazing, talented, beautiful person you are 💕💕💕 Don’t be shy now 😊

Make sure you let them know to keep scratching 🤣

curious if any members use PEMF or other maintenance like ice baths or massages to keep their horses sound and happy. This is Pheobe getting her weekly treatment from her Magnawave technician!

As personal development coaches, we continually seek grounded, experiential ways to help people build emotional intelligence, self-leadership, and authentic confidence. One approach gaining momentum, and supported by emerging research, is equine-assisted personal development (EAPD). EAPD involves structured, ground-based activities with horses that support growth, awareness, and behaviour change. Most importantly, clients do not need to ride or have any previous horse knowledge.Much of the transformation comes from being with horses; observing, interacting, adjusting, and experiencing real-time biofeedback in a safe relational space. Why Horses? Emotional congruence and real-time feedback Horses are masters of reading non-verbal communication. They don’t respond to our stories or self-presentations. They don’t care about gender, race, religion, political views, status, qualifications wealth or any of the ‘status symbols’ valued by society. Horses naturally tune in to our nervous-system cues, intention, energy, and presence. When a person softens their shoulders, breathes more deeply, becomes clearer in their intention, or shifts from anxiety to grounded confidence, the horse often responds immediately. It might moving toward connection or offer stillness and calm. This instant, embodied feedback loop accelerates self-awareness in a way that talking alone rarely can. Nervous-system regulation and co-regulation Research around heart-rate variability (HRV), vagal tone, and co-regulation shows that horses — naturally attuned to the emotional landscape around them — can support nervous-system settling in humans. Clients often experience: · calmer breathing · softened posture · reduced stress responses · a shift from reactivity to presence Studies from the HeartMath Institute have reported patterns of heart-rhythm synchronisation between calm horses and humans, pointing toward a relational coherence effect where emotional and physiological states stabilise through connection.
