It's been almost three years since I posted on here! Don't ask me where three years have gone as I haven't exactly been sitting around doing nothing. But, sadly, we lost the venue for our Healing Horses clinics and this signified the end of a rather special era. The venue owner had to move and we now have nowhere to run the clinics. I accepted that this was meant to be, though admittedly was rather miffed at the time as I totally loved running the clinics from this venue. At first, I tried to find another suitable venue but they were either too far away from my home or were unsuitable.
A good venue is all about the energy of the place. I am sure those of you that are intuitive to energy know what I am talking about. I have often walked on to a yard that looks nice, but a prickle runs up my spine as I sense the history and ecology of the bricks and mortar and the people who inhabitate the place. Horses are in tune with this energy. Often, when experiencing behavioural issues, a horse will settle somewhere else, if you decide to move him. The horse does not care if it has a pristine indoor school or the best stables. Your horse cares about how much grass he can cram in his tummy and whether he has a couple of decent mates. He cares about how he is treated of course.
A bit like us really :-)
Reiki for horses is now available as a distance learning course. It is accredited by The Complementary Medical Association. Yes, of course I agree, it isn't the same as the fabulous two days clinics I ran for two years. We had so much fun and we worked with the most amazing horses and students. It was a magical time, a time I will always remember and treasure. Maybe one day, another venue will appear. I have no attachment to the outcome as I trust that we are always in the right place at the right time. Life is much easier if you have no great investment in how things turn out. Let's face it, how many times has your life turned upside down but ended up putting you in a much better, albeit unexpected place? That is life and I love that aspect of it. Learn to embrace change and your life becomes much easier for you... and or your horse.
