<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 18pt;">What
happens when an equine athlete receives all that’s needed?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Good food, healthy hooves, balanced training,
ulcer treatments, joint injections, chiropractic, body work, laser sessions are
all industry standards.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The horse is
pretty good but it can be better!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>See
there is a missing piece.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What happens
when the rider or trainer isn’t as good in their body as their equine partner?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Disharmony happens.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Imbalance happens.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

ironicy...We spare no expense for horse supplements.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yet! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is common place for a box of donuts to be

can a horse perform to its peak when the rider is experiencing lack of mobility
in their hips?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Arthritis in their
knees?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sharp, searing back pain?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How can we, the people, excel when our intake

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 18pt;">There
are two athletes in this picture.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A
horse and rider combination is a partnership.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It’s a relationship.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If only one
is cared for, then there is a crucial weak link.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 18pt;">A
horse that balks when ridden on the road with car traffic has a trainer hired
to change their reaction.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once this is
established, the rider must go through guidance with said trainer to unlearn
responses that support a balking attitude.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The trainer must work with the horse and rider separately and then
jointly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This way, the team may proceed
with a new and different approach to stress.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 18pt;">Where
is the line?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The place where one
considers responsibilities, care that is given others and balances their own
needs so they are met.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are
supplements, great organic food, yoga classes, pilates studios.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are self-help books.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are enlightened gurus.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But there is an easy first step.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Make time for yourself!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Make time to feel good!

are certain things that are not shared.
Whether for competition, social politeness or superstition, information
is withheld. I’m suggesting a different
approach. Let’s put all the great
possibilities on the table. A banquet is
served with embroidered linens and china.
Easily accessible…An abundance for all.
You are powerful. All the tools
are at your fingertips.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p></p>

a helpful random tidbit not commonly shared for social politeness… cornstarch

a hands on approach to full balance of body, mind, and spirit. Acupressure melds Traditional Chinese
Medicine with soft tissue techniques. The
application of acupressure is a systematic approach. A session starts and ends with a discussion
where observations, communication, palpation, pulse and tongue reading are done
to get an overall view of disharmonies in, and adjustments to, the system. Through this time, we are able to create a
plan or intention for this session and beyond.</span><br />

least 108 physical points where finger pressure can access Qi channels, which
is essentially the energy that ‘runs’ the body. There are a multitude of

client to maintain a sense of wholeness while disruptions are balanced. For a very significant or long term injury, acupressure
is often best utilized through multiple sessions. Think of an onion which has
many layers between the skin to the center.
An acupressure session will peel back a few layers of disharmony and
rebalance the core in the process, as opposed to chopping right down to the
core, which will not rebalance the core. </span></div>

power utilized in an acupressure session when the therapist practices the study
of Qi. Yoga, Qi Gong, and Healing Tao meditations
are a way to feed and balance ones whole self.
These meditations offer maximum physical and spiritual protections. When
your therapist applies this knowledge within the session … great shifts and
changes happen. In the Chinese Qi Gong
Massage Manual, Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming states, “The correct definition of Qi Gong
is any training or study dealing with Qi which takes a long time and a lot of
effort.” This type of dedication and
effort will always flow into your healing session and provide a deeper and more
complete healing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

involves placing glass jars on the skin and creating a vacuum by suctioning out
the air. The tissue is pulled into the cup. Usually a tight sensation will be
felt in the area of the cup and may be moved around or left in place. They may
remain on your body briefly or for longer amounts of time. Some common areas to cup are the back, </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 21.3333px;">legs, shoulder cuffs, </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">or other fleshy areas of the body.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Cupping
targets soft tissue with pressure applied to pain points, injuries, and areas
of swelling. This helps to increase blood flow and give the tissues important
nutrients and oxygen. It helps <b>release </b>tissues deep within the body, <b>reprogram</b>
nerve damage, <b>relax</b> tense muscles and <b>ease</b> stiffness that’s often associated
with neck and back pain, shoulder injuries, migraines and rheumatism. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Poor
circulation can lead to buildup of toxins inside of the body’s tissues. Cupping
helps stagnation <b>improve</b>, while the blood rushing to the area that’s being
treated carries away toxins. Along with those toxins, it helps to clear dead
cells and other debris. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">All
of these elements are then expelled naturally, through the skin or lymphatic
system. Drinking plenty of water after a
cupping session is supportive for flushing away those impurities and promoting
better health.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Inflammation
is part of the body’s defense mechanism, which helps kick things into action to
help heal illness and injury. Cupping therapy works much the same way by
drawing blood to the affected area so that new blood vessels can be created. It
helps to heal knots and </span><span style="font-size: 21.3333px;">adhesions</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">, which is why so many athletes have been
turning to this therapy. It helps their body to </span></span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">recover faster </b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">from intense

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Always
looking for methods to naturally improve health and performance, more athletes
have turned to cupping. Tennis ace Andy Murray said he used cupping in
conjunction with other treatments to relieve stiffness and to help address a
back injury. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;"><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;">According
to the Equine Facilitated Mental Health Association, </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;"><i>“EAL
refers to a style of learning that occurs when a person is
interacting with the environment, including the people, animals and
situations involved. EAL promotes personal exploration of feelings
and behaviors in an educational format. It provides the client with
opportunities to enhance self-awareness and re-pattern maladaptive
behaviors, feelings, and attitudes. EAP promotes both personal
exploration of feelings and behaviors, and allows for clinical
interpretation of feelings and behaviors. EAP denotes an ongoing
therapeutic relationship with clearly established treatment goals and
objectives developed by the therapist in conjunction with the client.
The therapist must be an appropriately credentialed mental health
professional to legally practice psychotherapy and EAP.”</i></span></span></div>

use a horse in therapy with people?</span></div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
“<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;"><i>The
moment you begin sharing your life with a horse you embark on a
journey of self-discovery that is virtually impassable by any other
means. Your horse mirrors the essence of who you are and reveals to
you your strengths and your weaknesses, your promise and your
potential. With exquisite sensitivity, your horse not only intuits
your emotions and intentions but embodies them. If you are anxious
or afraid, your horse is fearful and tense. If you are preoccupied,
your horse is distracted. If you are uncaring, your horse is
indifferent. The more time you spend with your horse, the more
clearly you see your reflection in him and the greater your
self-awareness and understanding become.</i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;"><i>No
human being can ever hope to see you as clearly as your horse does.
Unlike people that judge you on your appearance and all your material
trappings, clothes, car, house, your horse holds you accountable only
for what lies in your heart.</i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">Some
of the beliefs behind EAL are that horses are sentient beings with
feelings, thoughts, emotions, memories, and empathetic abilities. As
well, horses can be active facilitators, evoking emotions in those
who work with and around them. The core values behind EAL are
compassion, integrity, divine wisdom, creativity, and consciousness.
The theories of EAL defined by Greg Kersten, the </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>creator</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">
of EAP and EAL and the OK Corral Series are; the </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>3
Rs (respond, retreat, regroup), Pressure/Pain</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">,
and the </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>Corral Community</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">.
The </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>3 Rs</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">
are a way to keep us emotionally and physically safe. When a threat
arises for a horse/herd it </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>responds</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">
immediately by acknowledging the circumstance. The horse/herd will
</span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>retreat</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">
to a safe distance if deemed necessary in the </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>response</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">.
The horse/herd will </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>regroup
</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">before returning to the
environment. A horse/herd will move away from </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>pressure
</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">and into </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>pain</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">.
The </span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><b>Corral Community</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">
is the understanding that the intention of the herd is to practice
protection and immediate utilization of the tools that exist within.
These theories exist within every horse/herd and are directly,
indirectly, or metaphorically applied to how a client functions
within their environment.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;">Many
different exercises are practiced and sometimes created at a moment’s
notice in response to the client or group needs. “Build your own
corral,” is an exercise used with groups. The assignment is to
build your corral in metaphor to work, office, home, or environment.
Each corral is built within the corral (pasture) and herd. As a
group decision each horse is assigned a desirable, required, or
functional trait necessary to the corrals highest function. After
all is built, the clients herd the horse/trait most needed into their
own corral. Once the exercise is complete or deemed time to stop,
ample space is taken to process the experiences within EAL theories.
Exercises are always done with the intention that the
experience/process is the only importance over completing the
exercise “correctly.” Specially designed EAL experiences may
promote psychosocial healing and growth through: improving
self-esteem/awareness, developing trust in a safe environment,
proving social skills training, encouraging sensory stimulation and
integration, combining body awareness exercises with motor planning
and verbal communication, developing choice-making/goal-setting
skills, developing sequencing/ problem-solving skills, encouraging
responsibility, and promoting pro-social attitudes through
care-giving experiences.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;">Linda
Kohanov, founder of Epona Equestrian Services, explains that</span><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;"><i>,”
Horses have a gift for “one trial learning,” the ability to
process, recall, and elaborate on the lessons gleaned from a single
experience. In the wild, they may only have one chance to get it
right….horses mirror the truth of what’s happening from moment to
moment, thus keeping their handlers from becoming mired in
projections and illusions. These animals not only reflect
incongruities in emotion and intention, they highlight unrecognized
strengths and improvements as well. In this way, horses provide a
form of biofeedback for practicing self-awareness, emotional agility,
and relationship skills that conventional counseling, role-playing
exercises, and discussion groups barely access since these techniques
are, once again, based primarily in language.”</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;">EAL
may be used for people with psycho-social issues and mental health
needs that result in any significant variation in cognition, mood,
judgment, insight, anxiety level, perception, social skills,
communication, behavior, or learning. Examples include but are not
limited to: anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, mood disorders,
behavior difficulties, major life changes (environmental trauma,
divorce, grief and loss, etc.), and other mental illness such as
schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism,
receptive or expressive language disorder, personality disorders,
depression, post traumatic stress disorder, chemical dependency, and
eating disorders. An EAL session is contraindicative if a client is
actively dangerous to self or others (suicidal, homicidal,
aggressive, actively delirious, demented, dissociative, psychotic,
severely confused (including severe delusion involving horses),
medically unstable, or actively abusing drugs.</span></div>
