Steven enjoys his nature walks with Cloudy and listening to George Strait. Next week, ride or walk, the theme music will be Paul McCartney featuring Black Bird and Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da. Irma T. Canfield

Today's session was a triumph. Steven's confidence shone through as he remained focused, relaxed and engaged; a peaceful trailride, accompanied by George Strait's music.

☀️ Early Morning Fun ☀️

There’s something so peaceful about mornings at Equessense. While most of the world is still waking up, Josh is here bright and early making sure our herd is happy and well-fed. 🐴💛

His favorite helper? Izzy, of course! 🌸 This sweet girl always gets a little extra love from Josh while she enjoys her breakfast.

Moments like these are what keep our program running, the quiet dedication, the bond between our horses and volunteers, and the care that goes into every part of what we do.

Drop a 🌞 or 🐎 in the comments to help us thank Josh for his early morning hard work!

🌟 Transforming Lives Through Equine Therapy 🌟

At Equessense, we believe in the healing power of horses. 🐴
Equine-assisted activities offer physical, social, emotional, and cognitive benefits for people of all ages and abilities.

✨ Why Horses?
Horses are intelligent, honest, and free of judgment. They don’t lie or manipulate, creating a safe and supportive environment for growth and healing. Working with horses can also reduce stress, anxiety, and blood pressure while naturally syncing your gait and breath with theirs.

💪 Physical Benefits:
• Builds core strength and improves posture
• Enhances balance, coordination, and flexibility

🤝 Social Benefits:
• Encourages verbal and non-verbal communication
• Promotes teamwork, confidence, and self-esteem
• Creates a sense of belonging and empowerment

💛 Emotional Benefits:
• Provides a calming and tranquil influence
• Supports emotional regulation
• Immersion in nature calms the mind and fosters mindfulness
• Creates a strong sense of accomplishment

🧠 Cognitive Benefits:
• Improves attention, focus, and concentration
• Strengthens problem-solving skills
• Boosts self-awareness and brain connectivity
• Reinforces sequencing and planning skills

Horses provide an overall sense of well-being, nurturing growth in every area of life.
