About this listen
Transform pain into resilience, doubt into courage, fear into power with equine therapy—a therapeutic sanctuary and a four-hoofed friend for life await!
A 2020 study shows that human beings create bonds quickly with horses, even in as little as 30 minutes. Equine therapy taps into this deep connection, providing human beings with many benefits ranging from stress and anxiety relief to enhanced communication abilities and self-esteem. This guide contains key information, scientific evidence, and fascinating real-life stories that will reveal the diverse applications and outcomes of a therapy embraced by children, adults and seniors alike.
In the audio, you will discover:
- The three forms of equine therapy and how they can help address a host of issues, including addiction, autism spectrum disorders, and ADHD.
- Why equine therapy can fill you with a sense of empowerment—even if you are battling severe trauma, PTSD, and issues affecting your self-esteem and self-confidence.
- The history, symbolism and modern impact of horses-and with them has such a powerful effect.
- How to groom, handle, feed, and build trust with your horse so your emotional bond deepens.
- Real-life applications of equine therapy plus vital information plus vital advice on how to overcome typical challenges.
- Explore virtual equine connections and how to build them without needing a horse!
- How equine assisted therapy can help you battle anxiety and depression, keeping you on the path to personal growth
- Discover inspirational true-life stories of transformation.
And so much more.
You don't need to be wealthy or live in the countryside to harness the power of equine therapy. A horse is out there waiting to look into your eyes and share an unbreakable bond of unspoken trust, love, and unconditional friendship.

Jodi Stuber wasn't looking for another horse for her struggling therapy ranch―let alone one like Solomon. After losing his herd, he was solitary and sad, spending his days standing near the plastic deer in his yard for company. No stranger herself to loss and heartache, Jodi knew she had to give Solomon a home. The road to recovery wouldn’t be easy. As Solomon struggled to fit in with his new herd and Jodi continued to navigate her own grief, the two developed a deep bond. But just as Jodi and Solomon were both beginning to heal, an unthinkable tragedy struck the therapy ranch.

Did you know there is an area of your brain known as the "Lizard Brain" that thinks only about the immediate moment and your means of survival? Yes, in certain circumstances, your "Rational Brain" can effectively "shut down" and you are at the mercy of a reptile... dry-mouthed, sweating, queasy, unable to think clearly - even though you know better. When does the Lizard Brain run the show? It can happen in any number of unfamiliar, uncomfortable, challenging, or "stressful" riding situations. But here's the thing: with the right kind of training, you can learn to manage the reptile within.

Story
Many horse trainers, even those who espouse the so-called natural horsemanship approach, take the position that horses who fail to obey a human's request are doing so as much out of perversity as ignorance. That's not Mark Rashid's view. In his words, "If we understand that horses can't separate the way they feel from the way they act, then we can start to see that unwanted behavior isn't bad behavior at all. More times than not, it's just the horse expressing the way he feels at that particular moment in time....

Heartwarming and Inspiring 🥰 Thank you!
I’m only halfway through Equine Assisted Therapy audiobook, but I couldn’t wait to share my experience! The stories are touching and relatable, offering glimpses into the profound connections between humans and horses. I’m already feeling inspired and uplifted, and I can’t wait to see what the rest of the journey holds.

Too general and highly repetitive with little valueable content
Each chapter was short with little contextual examples or applicable and useful approaches or value add for clinicians or practitioners. There’s not much more the support and encouragement in the book, at the end of the day those aren’t new insights or ideas, the repetition comes in how the author states that there is value in equine assisted therapy but no actual how to, details techniques, detailed case studies, etc. if you look at Nature therapy books they give a good example of how this tittle could be vastly improved in regards to how it supports equine therapists and clients.
