And suddenly it’s all change!

The warm days of late autumn, with birds chattering and the bulbs already sprouting gave way in the blink of an eye to full-on winter.

It was a swift, dramatic change. Suddenly, it’s beanies and roaring fires and rugs on the
horses.

There are two types of change. There is change that is forced on us and then change that we choose to initiate. There’s not much we could do to stop the seasons changing but there’s heaps we can do to bring about change in our lives and relationships.

Equine Assisted Learning helps people drive personal change because horses are responsive, emotionally attuned partners who provide immediate, honest feedback. Horses mirror human emotions and behaviour. This allows clients opportunity to reflect on their behaviours and consider what might need to change and why. Clients can practice new ways of communicating, regulate emotions, and solve problems in real time. It’s a space that fosters change through focused reflections. ‘Is there a different way I can approach this ? What if I tried doing this? How about I slow down and take my time? ‘ This creates powerful, experiential learning that traditional approaches often can’t match.

The willingness to try new things, to have a go and not be daunted by failure builds resilience, self-esteem and confidence. The horses are a resource for our Clients as they find their way.

There’s not much we can do to stop the Victorian winter but there’s loads we can do to
change ourselves.
