Same Souls Many Bodies
by Brian L. Weiss, MD
Sometimes we are motivated by fear, sometimes we are motivated by inspiration. I love this book because it embraces the idea of being captivated by a positive future instead of a dreadful past. To experience a glimpse of a more fulfilling destiny can propel us out of the mundane now. Hope in possibilities is a powerful force that can help us reach new heights and even taste unforeseen destinies.

We were honored to have Emily Ruth here at Equine GuidanceĀ® so she could meet Mimi, Penny, and Salsa in a Somatic Equine GuidanceĀ® Experience!
“Can the art of horse whispering, a perceptive communication technique, work to heal complex trauma in humans?
Isabelle Shook, the founder of Equine GuidanceĀ® in Sedona, AZ, believes that horses possess an empathetic energyāātelegraphed via non-verbal cuesāāthat can resolve symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma in those seeking support.”

A UNIQUE FORM OF EQUINE THERAPY HELPS HEAL TRAUMA
ļ»æExcerpts:
āAs a clinical therapist and Somatic ExperiencingĀ® Practitioner, Belleās engagement with my feelings and thoughts was not only professional, but invoked my own intense curiosity into a deeper part of myself. My sharing flowed easily as realizations continually arose within me. Belle wasnāt arbitrarily guiding or leading in any direction, yet our talk therapy was already beginning to regulate my nervous system in a palpable way.ā

āAfter my time with the herd Belle suggested I sit and write what I had experienced from each horse individually. I wrote vigorously as the experience was so intense and tangible. It wasnāt until later that evening, reading through the packet that Belle had given me upon my arrival, did the full impact of what had occurred sink in. I read Belleās description of each member of the herd and sat back in disbelief.ā
āI felt grounded for the first time in my life. I felt calm. I carry this feeling with me even now. The healing I received from this herd of natural healers has sustained. This was not an emotionally gripping experience that would weaken its healing properties over time. I continue to invoke this graciously gifted calm into my very cells, and in my nervous system.ā
āIt is an integration and a healing like no other.ā
