Understanding where horses come from has been a long road for
most equestrians. Using that new understanding can dramatically
change how one handles, cares for, and trains or rides their
horse.
“We treat horses the way others tell us to, as well as the way
we were treated as children,” says Gwenyth Browning Jones
Santagate, of Douglas Massachusetts. “That usually borders on
abuse, even for experienced equestrians. My dad taught me that
if I REALLY wanted to know about an animal, then I needed to
look at things from its own point of view. I later tried the
‘formal,’ ‘traditional’ methods – and HATED it. When my
daughter’s ‘babysitter’ mare was severely abused in our absence,
traditional methods of discipline simply didn’t work, so I went
back to my ‘feel’ methods to reclaim the mare’s mind.”
Because of this horrific incident, Gwen vowed never to forget
“that horses are people, too ... just in different bodies. They
are kindred spirits with more generous hearts than any human can
ever realize.”
In her efforts to reach and educate humans, Gwen is holding a
two-session teleseminar that focuses first on understanding the
psychological underpinnings of the horse, and in the second
session, on what to do with that understanding. The sessions are
scheduled for June 22, 2005, and July 6, 2005. There is a fee of
$49.95, which includes both sessions, class materials, and some
unannounced bonuses.
