Recent studies conducted by the Institute of Heart-Math provide a clue to explain the two-way β€²β€²healingβ€²β€² 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 "coherentβ€²β€² 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.

It really is the little things We tend to get so swept up in the hustle and bustle of life that we disregard the fundamentals that keep us grounded and happy. I had a mentor in my early 20’s who always said, β€œIf you don’t have time for a cup of tea, you are doing something wrong.”. I have always remembered that. At the time I thought of it as a goal to work towards but it should be a building block in your life’s foundation. GIVE time to figure out what YOUR small things are and then MAKE time to enjoy them. Equine Energy is all about taking the time to figuring this thing called life. Getting out into nature, interesting with the horses and working together to figure it all out. No challenge is too small, everything deserves space in our world πŸ’š

It is incredible to watch how horses navigate through life. Constantly adapting to their surroundings and assessing challenges full on yet with a humble approach. They respond in a truthful way to any interaction and then swiftly move on to the next exciting challenge they may face along their journey.

The inherent positivity and curiosity they bring to everyday life is inspiring to work with.

with and let’s discover what the future holds. As Walt Disney says, β€œCuriosity keeps leading us down new paths.”.
