  equine therapy business plan: The Compassionate Equestrian Allen Schoen, Susan Gordon, 2015-08-17 This marvelous book, borne of a unique collaboration between Dr. Allen Schoen—a world-renowned veterinarian and author—and trainer and competitor of many years Susan Gordon, introduces the 25 Principles of Compassionate Equitation. These Principles, conceived by Dr. Schoen and Gordon, are a set of developmental guidelines, encouraging a level of personal awareness that may be enacted not only through the reader's engagement with horses, but can be extended to all humans and sentient beings he or she encounters. The 25 Principles share stories and outline current, peer-reviewed studies that identify and support methods of training, handling, and caring for horses that constitute a safe, healthy, non-stressful, and pain-free environment. Through their Compassionate Equestrian program, the authors encourage all involved in the horse industry to approach training and handling with compassion and a willingness to alleviate suffering. By developing deeper compassion for their own horses, and subsequently, all equines, equestrians transcend their differences in breed preferences, riding disciplines, and training methodologies. This leads to the ability to empathize and connect more closely with the “global collective” of horses and horse people. In doing so, a worldwide community of compassionate equine practitioners and horse owners will emerge, which will not only benefit the horses: People involved with horses are found in many influential segments of society and have the potential to affect wide circles of friends, acquaintances, and co-workers from every walk of life. These are simple changes any horse person can make that can have a vast impact on the horse industry and society as a whole.

  equine therapy business plan: Horses, Power and Place Neil Ward, 2023-12-05 Horses, Power and Place explores the evolution of humanity’s relationship with horses, from early domestication through to the use of the horse as a draught animal, an agricultural, industrial and military asset, and an animal of sport and leisure. Taking an historical approach, and using Britain as a case study, this is the first book-length exploration of the horse in the more-than-human geography of a nation. It traces the role and implications of horse-based mobility for the evolution of settlement structure, urban morphology and the rural landscape. It maps the growth and various uses of horses to the point of ‘peak horse’ in the early twentieth century before considering the contemporary place of the horse in twenty-first century economy and society. It assesses the role of the horse in the formation of places within Britain and in the formation of the nation. The book reflects on the implications of this historical and contemporary equine geography for animal geographies and animal studies. It argues for the study of animals in general in how places are made, not just by humans. Written in a clear and accessible style, this book will be essential reading for students and scholars of animal geography and animal studies more widely.

  equine therapy business plan: The Rescue of Belle and Sundance Birgit Stutz, Lawrence Scanlan, 2011-10-24 On December 15, 2008, two snowmobilers discovered a pair of stranded horses atop B.C.'s Mount Renshaw in the Canadian Rockies. Belle and Sundance were a sorry sight-- they were emaciated, shivering and trapped in a small shelter they had made for themselves by tramping down the six-foot-deep snow. The next morning, a party of four from the nearby town of McBride was sent back up the mountain with a bale of hay, a handgun and a heartbreaking choice to make: either feed Belle and Sundance, or shoot them. The four agreed: there was an undeniable glimmer in the eyes of Belle and Sundance, and the decision was made to feed them. But saving the two horses would require a lot more than hay. Weighing their options, many people in McBride decided they would dig, by hand, the three-foot-wide, six-foot-deep, kilometre-long tunnel that became Belle and Sundance's route to freedom. The Rescue of Belle and Sundance takes the reader into the heart of the struggle to save two horses. In this account, which quickly became a regional bestseller and a bookseller favourite, Stutz and Scanlan recreate the rescue that sent a message of hope and compassion around the world.

  equine therapy business plan: Equine Guided Education Ariana Mazzucchi, 2015-07-12 This book is a comprehensive resource on equine interactive practices, nature based learning and somatic coaching. Equine Guided Education (EGE) is profound, magical, and dramatically effective. EGE incorporates horse activities into coaching and therapy models that are set in natural outdoor settings. Interacting with horses provides experiences that train new skills in intuition, sensory awareness, and somatic sensibility. These non-linear forms of intelligence (EQ) are needed in these times of change and uncertainty and apply to people from all walks of life. Ariana, a pioneer in the field of Equine Experiential Learning, founded Equine Guided Education in the 1980's and co-founded Strozzi Institute (now known as Strozzi Somatics). She has been training professionals in EGE longer than anyone else. This instructive and thorough book is full of the essential tools needed to be successful in the equine, experiential, nature based healing professions. It is required reading in Ariana's SkyHorseCEGE(tm) programs and many other self-development and coaching processes. The principles in this book are universal to Equine Assisted Learning, and Equine Facilitated Therapy. If you call the equine-human relationship by another name, simply transpose the term EGE. This book is also a valuable resource for coaches, educators, and healers who want to bring a more natural, intuitive approach to their practice.EGE is the essential component that has been missing since we took our education indoors whether it be pre-school or leadership development.Various chapters include detailed explanations of the role of the horse, the role of the facilitator, the process of creating a positive learning environment, dealing with fear, self development principles, the actual process of facilitating EGE, the importance of nature and providing a somatic, biological perspective.
