    Seek to be Whole, not Perfect

    I haven’t written a lot about Timmy and how we are progressing with his cribbing recently. This is because nothing was needed until today, and all that was needed today was a conversation that has given both of us something to process. When I say process it could mean any or all of these: But,…

    When connection leads the way..

    It has been interesting these last week learning to wait. It has been rewarding learning to wait. With both there has been a fear too, a worry that if I don’t ask I won’t know. I have learnt to be present, connect with my own energy and allow it to roll outwards, and then wait.…

    One day and two evenings with a fabulous equine bodyworker, who has given each of the herd the physical releases they were ready for, and their souls had been asking me for, and I am in a totally different place spiritually. How did I know their souls had been asking me for these sessions? I…

    Releasing an onion layer..

    Allow an animal to have their say without taking what they say personally. When my farrier was here last week (28 Nov 22) Timmy gave us some real challenges. Interestingly Timmy is always the easy one for feet – a lot of the time I could just put his rope over his back and let…
