New training day. Experience resilience in real time.

They will never unsee what they have witnessed. Learning how to live in the new normal is what SCAR training is about. Mentally coping with trauma.

Adrenaline is Adrenaline it doesn't matter the reason. Learning how to control your adrenaline is the key to Self-Control Awareness and Resilience.

Those horse show nerves can be intense. 😬 #horses #horseshowing #horselife #horseshow #equestrianlife

Waiting for class to start.

This is why horses are so good at teaching resilience.

Very true for First Responders.

This is true for First Responders.

So much research has been done to show horses are great teachers, confident builders, and resilient it cannot be ignored anymore.

Recent studies conducted by the Institute of HeartMath provide a clue to explain the bidirectional "healing" that happens when we are near horses. According to researchers, the heart has a larger electromagnetic field and higher level of intelligence than the brain: A magnetometer can measure the heart's energy field radiating up to 8 to 10 feet around the human body. While this is certainly significant it is perhaps more impressive that the electromagnetic field projected by the horse's heart is five times larger than the human one (imagine a sphere-shaped field that completely surrounds you). The horse's electromagnetic field is also stronger than ours and can actually directly influence our own heart rhythm!
Horses are also likely to have what science has identified as a "coherent" heart rhythm (heart rate pattern) which explains why we may "feel better" when we are around them. . . .studies have found that a coherent heart pattern or HRV is a robust measure of well-being and consistent with emotional states of calm and joy--that is, we exhibit such patterns when we feel positive emotions.
A coherent heart pattern is indicative of a system that can recover and adjust to stressful situations very efficiently. Often times, we only need to be in a horses presence to feel a sense of wellness and peace. In fact, research shows that people experience many physiological benefits while interacting with horses, including lowered blood pressure and heart rate, increased levels of beta-endorphins (neurotransmitters that serve as pain surppressors), decreased stress levels, reduced feelings of anger, hostility, tension and anxiety, improved social functioning; and increased feelings of empowerment, trust, patience and self-efficacy."

Spirits Healing Souls has gone through some major changes this past year. EalTC Equine assisted learning Training Center is the new name. Many more programs are being introduced as we continue to develop equine services. Thank you so much for everyone's support in the past, now I'm looking forward to the new adventures in the future.
