"LEARNING LIFE SKILLS FROM HORSES"
Welcome to Spirit Horse Haven
At Spirit Horse Haven, we recognize the profound impact that horses can have in teaching individuals life skills, self-regulation, and fostering personal growth across all ages. Horses possess an innate ability to impart valuable lessons through their natural communication via body language. By attuning to their signals, humans can learn significantly from these majestic creatures.
Did you know that horses help humans self-regulate and also self-regulate themselves?
Humans can help horses to regulate by:
•Building trust - Trust is essential for creating a strong connection between humans and horses. Horses may exhibit anxiety or fear in the absence of trust.
•By being calm - A calm presence can enhance a horse's sense of safety.
• Recognize emotions - Both yours and the horse's.
•Observe calming cues - Horses show stress and its release through calming cues such as yawning, licking, and chewing.
Horses are highly effective in teaching humans due to their ability to perceive human emotions and communicate their own emotions. Utilizing horses as Emotional Regulators can aid individuals in developing emotional regulation skills, enhancing self-awareness, and fostering trust, communication, and relationship-building skills.
