This sweet friends is what leads to true self love and confidence. The belief that we are loved and accepted through any emotion, is formed through loving presence and connection with our parents as a baby.
If you, like myself had a pretty great childhood, felt loved but were left to cry (as was encouraged back then), you no doubt will have lingering doubts about how acceptable you are.
- Fears of not being loved.
- Not feeling REALLY loved in relationships
- A constant flirty vibe with people to help yourself feel loved and accepted.
- Sometimes a sense that if you truly Express everything you will be left.
- obsession with your own physical appearance. Trying to attain perfection believing only then will you be loved and accepted.
- Or the reverse, expressing your feelings but in an aggressive way. An anger inside and a lack of ability to be still with these feelings.
( note: you will only see these subconscious things once you start looking at your behaviours in choosing partners and friends, and your behaviours when in relationships).

There are many ways to greater self love and healthy relationships.
Equine Experiential Learning offers a path.
All of you is accepted by the horse🙏

Recent studies conducted by the Institute of Heart-Math provide a clue to explain the two-way ′′ healing ′′ that occurs when we're close to horses. According to researchers, the heart has an electromagnetic field larger than the brain: a magnetometer can measure the energy field of the heart that radiates from 2.4 meters to 3 meters around the human body.

While this is certainly significant, perhaps more impressive than the electromagnetic field projected by the heart of a horse is five times larger than that of a human being (imagine an electromagnetic sphere around the horse) and it can influence straight into our own heart rate.

Horses are also likely to have what science has identified as a ′′ coherent ′′ heart rate (heart rate pattern) that explains why we can ′′ feel better ′′ when we're close to them. Studies have found a coherent heart pattern or HRV to be a solid 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 adapt to stressful situations very efficiently. Many times, we just need to be in the presence of horses to feel a sense of well-being and peace.
In fact, research shows that people experience many physiological benefits by interacting with horses, including lower blood pressure and heart rate, higher beta-endorphins (neurotransmitters acting as pain suppressors), decreased stress levels, decreased feelings of anger, hostility, tension and anxiety, better social working; and greater feelings of empowerment, confidence, patience and self-efficacy.~

Farewell old wise fella Kody.
You have served so many humans, assisted them as their rock and an ever willing mirror to the stength and resolve they seek.
I cannot count how many times you have assisted us to feel deeper than we ever have before. And held space greater than any other.

Ahh the freedom from age, illness and pain must be such a relief for you.

The only task we have is to notice what we are feeling and sensing, while we go about our lives.
That is it.
This is a practice and is far easier to master once we have experienced it with assistance.
Horses and a skilled facilitator are your allies if you have decided that you need to start looking at things that are causing your life to be harder than it could be. What it is that you need to spend some time unraveling?

Here is a glimpse of my own personal journey and the Practice of Equine Ex p eriential Learning. .

Self divulging is something that is frowned upon in psychotherapy /psychology circles generally. From my experience however, sharing parts of my own journey, whilst being mindful of what that may also bring to the table, is a beneficial thing.

Lots of people have been sharing with me the challenges they are facing at the moment and so this post comes through after seeing so much frustration and pain at the moment. Whether it is because we are all under so much more incidental pressure and stress and also very real tangible stress, it is certainly a trying time.
This is a reminder to everyone that it is a basic requirement of any relationship that we feel cared for AND to care for the other.
When one party is being more considerate or more aware of the challenges faced by the other this can lead to shaky ground. It's important recognise these shakes in the rock bed before things escalate.
Noone is immune to feeling neglected or disrespected or undervalued. Our partner has needs and we have needs. If you are seeing your partner as needy or says you are being needy it really needs to be looked at deeply. Sometimes it can actually be neglect on their part.
Neediness and Neglect are like soul mates depending on each other, interacting on levels we aren't aware of.
It can be a fine line and this can sure go both ways for both sexes.
We may also subconsciously be the one neglecting our partner, friend or family... unaware we are being the perpetrator. Are we neglecting the ones we really should be embracing? What exactly are the things causing our stress and feeling of overwhelm that our relationships are suffering?. Taking time in nature to sit and become aware of what is really bring us stress and what is bringing joy is a necessity if we want to move forward in a positive way in our lives.

Although this quote here is true for sure, be mindful that you may as also be called to step up and be that loving example first. You may be the one that sees what is going on first and what is needed. To care and to be compassionate for another, to sit in loving presence while they experience their challenge is a part of all relationships and being there for someone.
However....IF you feel this is always you being the emotional support, the one to try and smooth the waters, the one to offer forgiveness first, the one to offer care and compassion first, then your cup will run dry very quickly.
Relating to another (relationship) is just that. It's not only about us getting our needs met but compromising, relating and meeting anothers needs too.
That is love. 💖🙏

We are truly capable of carrying many emotions at once. There does not have to be a "getting over" one to feel deeply another. The process of becoming aware of which emotions we are carrying all at once, is necessary if we want to make clear conscious more mindful decisions as we traverse daily life. What emotions are you experiencing today?
