Why Horses?
By Pat Huchinson
Why do Equine Assisted Learning facilitators and psychotherapists partner with horses? This is a thought-provoking question. There are so many animals that share many positive, interactive activities with humans. Why the horse?

A Word from the Mindful Horse
By Graeme Green
We are forever being admonished to demonstrate altruism for those around us, be it in charitable donation of time or money, the caring or consideration of others; or in management and performance dialectic, you know how it goes: “there is no ‘I’ in team”. Well there is.

Being Heard
By Victoria Sambleson
The phrase holding space seems to have become the new “buzz word” of 2016 with people using it on social media often. My question is: have they stopped to consider what it really means? In my opinion, in many cases it is used as a turn of phrase. “I see you're struggling, so I’m holding space for you.”

Thaw
By Dorothy Chiotti
Perhaps the most hope-filled time of year is the spring thaw.

Women's Empowerment
By Becci Godfrey
If you had said 10 years ago I’d be running Women’s Empowerment Days with a herd of horses, I would have laughed at you. I was a nobody, I had nothing to contribute. But here I am 10 years older, wiser and more astute and I can say “yeah, I do that.” It would have to be the horses that have made that happen.

Love, Anxiety and Labels
By Jennifer Steers
My love of horses and their powerful ability to help human’s heal led me to acquire training and certification in the field of Equine Assisted Learning.

Leadership and Followership
By Agata Wiatrowska
"Lead, lead, follow, lead, follow" - I guess it could be the monologue of one of the mares I have co- facilitated Horse Assisted Education (HAE) programs with since 2011. In this article I would like to share insights from experiences with her in the subject of leadership vs. followership.

In A Way Our Hearts Can Hear Them
By Adele Passmore
Brianna and her sister Skylar came for a visit with Mickey and Noah, two rescue horses that became the founding members of H.E.L.P. (Human Equine Love Project) and my herd of masterful teachers. They share the land with four herd mates who all carry within them the power to heal humans.

Horses as Agents of Social Change
By Lynda Watson
My theory: If one can elicit positive change in humans then one is an agent of social change. As a result of their interactions with humans, through the modality of Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL), horses are agents of positive and peaceful lasting social change.
