Because horses are large, powerful, and may be intimidating to many people, engaging with them in a supervised environment is thought to help anxious individuals face their fears and practice vulnerability in a safe space. Indeed, some clients report that simply interacting with the horses and successfully guiding them through challenges is beneficial for their anxiety and self-esteem.

Did you know a horse's winter coat will grow according to the light? In late August and early September, the light starts diminishing so the horse is not exposed to the sunlight for as long during the day. Nature tells the horse's body that it needs more hair to keep warm during the coming winter nights. Plus the extra fluff is so cute!

While engaging in equine-assisted therapy, clients will learn to recognize how a horseā€™s behaviours might be due to their own emotional signalsā€”a client who is angry or anxious, for example, may see the horse pull away or otherwise respond negatively. This ā€œmirroringā€ process is thought to help the client identify what theyā€™re feeling and potentially modify their emotions for the better, all in a nonjudgmental environment. Equine specialists may also promote the practice of mindfulness, or focusing on the present moment, when the client is interacting with the horse.
