Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse Speak is not a training method or technique—it is a practical system for “listening” and “talking” to horses in their language, instead of expecting them to comprehend ours. Horse Speak can be used by anyone who works with horses, whether riding instructor, colt starter, recreational rider, or avid competitor. It promises improved understanding of what a horse is telling you, and provides simple replies you can use to tell him that you “hear” him, you “get it,” and you have ideas you want to share with him, too. The result? Time with your horse will be full of what horse trainer and equine-assisted learning instructor Sharon Wilsie of Wilsie Way Horsemanship calls Conversations, and soon the all-too-common misunderstandings that occur between horse and human will evolve into civil discussions with positive and progressive results! Learn Horse Speak in 12 easy steps; understand equine communication via breath and body language; and discover the Four Gs of Horse Speak: Greeting, Going Somewhere, Grooming, and Gone. Practice regulating your intensity, and sample dozens of ready-made Conversations with your horse, as step-by-step templates and instructional color photographs walk you through the eye-opening process of communicating on a whole new level.

Download or read book Horses in Translation written by Sharon Wilsie and published by Trafalgar Square Books. This book was released on 2018-07-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With her landmark first book Horse Speak: The Equine–Human Translation Guide, trainer Sharon Wilsie upended conventional methods of human–equine communication (using words and ropes, for example) with her clear classification of the language horses use with each other (body, breath, and intent), as well as an unparalleled explanation of how we as humans can effectively mirror it. Learning to “listen” and “talk” to horses in their language, instead of expecting them to comprehend ours, is a milestone in the progressive philosophy of horsemanship, helping find positive solutions to behavior and training problems and ultimately leading to fewer misunderstandings between horses and humans. In her much–anticipated follow–up, Wilsie uses true stories to relate examples of “problems” and how they were solved using Horse Speak. Her engaging narrative introduces readers to dozens of real–life scenarios from different barns, various disciplines, and riders and handlers with contrasting experiences and backgrounds. Wilsie highlights her Horse Speak process, the clues that point to the best course of action, and the steps she takes to connect with horses that have shut down, grown confused, or become sulky or aggressive for any number of reasons. The result is a book full of incredible insight and exciting possibilities.

This book was released on 2015-12-16 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A source book for everyone who spends time with horses. Whether you have horses for fun, competition, or as a profession, there is something in this book for you. Clearly written, without scientific jargon, this book helps us understand how our body language affects our horse. It explains how a horse's perception of the world is different from our human perception because horses sense the world differently. Whether you are getting acquainted with your first horse or have spent a lifetime with horses, the detail in this book is illuminating. No matter what training system you use, this information will increase your awareness about what you are saying to your horse and what your horse is saying to you. It looks at the human and the horse as two beings who speak different languages and are meeting without an interpreter. The book explores the detail of the ways we can use our body language, breathing, energy levels, intent, gestures, touch, words and marker signals to let horses know what we would like them to do. It also details the way horses express themselves to us, once we know how to look and listen. The book is illustrated and includes links to video clips that help explain many of the concepts. The final sections present eight Training Plans that can be used as springboards to write Individual Education Programs for specific horses. Whether you teach your horse by releasing signal pressure, adding a rub or rest after the release, occasionally use a food treat or do Clicker Training which uses a marker signal and a treat in combination, to highlight the response you want, this book has something for you.

Download or read book When the Horses Whisper written by Rosalyn W. Berne and published by Rainbow Ridge. This book was released on 2013-09-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When the Horses Whisper shows the capacity of horses to help us heal the human heart. It expresses in human language what horses have to say when given the chance to speak. It is a story about the sacred bond between us, and the communication made possible when the horse-human relationship is based on love. Conversations with fifteen horses, most of who live and work in Costa Rica, are featured along with their photographs, capturing them as individual beings in service to humans on a shared evolutionary journey. This journey amounts to the "re-membering" of our whole selves in the wholeness of creation, especially the parts we split off, deny, and place in shadow because they are too painful to deal with. Horses, as the book shows, can help us see these lost parts, and call forth our courage to reclaim them. For the author, these included the loss of a newborn daughter, the mental illness of an adult son, letting go of a thirty-year marriage, and childhood sexual abuse. The story recounts the equine healing work that helped in reclaiming her authentic self. This book is testimony to the power of horses and equine healing work in transforming life's losses into a deeper human wholeness and a further communion with the non-human world."--P. [4] of cover.

Download or read book Broken Horses written by Brandi Carlile and published by Crown. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The critically acclaimed singer-songwriter, producer, and six-time Grammy winner opens up about faith, sexuality, parenthood, and a life shaped by music in “one of the great memoirs of our time” (Glennon Doyle, author of Untamed). NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR AND AUTOSTRADDLE • “The best-written, most engaging rock autobiography since her childhood hero, Elton John, published Me.”—Variety Brandi Carlile was born into a musically gifted, impoverished family on the outskirts of Seattle and grew up in a constant state of change, moving from house to house, trailer to trailer, fourteen times in as many years. Though imperfect in every way, her dysfunctional childhood was as beautiful as it was strange, and as nurturing as it was difficult. At the age of five, Brandi contracted bacterial meningitis, which almost took her life, leaving an indelible mark on her formative years and altering her journey into young adulthood. As an openly gay teenager, Brandi grappled with the tension between her sexuality and her faith when her pastor publicly refused to baptize her on the day of the ceremony. Shockingly, her small town rallied around Brandi in support and set her on a path to salvation where the rest of the misfits and rejects find it: through twisted, joyful, weird, and wonderful music. In Broken Horses, Brandi Carlile takes readers through the events of her life that shaped her very raw art—from her start at a local singing competition where she performed Elton John’s “Honky Cat” in a bedazzled white polyester suit, to her first break opening for Dave Matthews Band, to many sleepless tours over fifteen years and six studio albums, all while raising two children with her wife, Catherine Shepherd. This hard-won success led her to collaborations with personal heroes like Elton John, Dolly Parton, Mavis Staples, Pearl Jam, Tanya Tucker, and Joni Mitchell, as well as her peers in the supergroup The Highwomen, and ultimately to the Grammy stage, where she converted millions of viewers into instant fans. Evocative and piercingly honest, Broken Horses is at once an examination of faith through the eyes of a person rejected by the church’s basic tenets and a meditation on the moments and lyrics that have shaped the life of a creative mind, a brilliant artist, and a genuine empath on a mission to give back.

Her generous voice will resonate with you, change you and help you create work that matters." —Seth Godin, author of The Icarus Deception The bestselling author of The Art of Possibility returns with a new vision for achieving true human fulfillment that's sure to appeal to fans of Brene Brown's Daring Greatly and Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic As children, we develop stories about how the world works, most of which get improved upon and amended over time. But some do not, even as we mature in other ways. Opinionated, self-centered and fear-driven, these “child stories” are the source of the behavioral and emotional patterns that hold us back. When we learn to identify and rewrite these stories, limitless growth becomes possible. In her groundbreaking and inspiring new book, Rosamund Stone Zander shows us that life is a story we tell ourselves, and that we have the power to change that story. She illuminates how breaking old patterns and telling a new story can transform not just our own lives, but also our relationships with others—whether in a marriage, a classroom, or a business. Finally, she demonstrates how, with this new understanding of ourselves and our place within an interconnected world, we can take powerful action in the collective interest, and gain a sense of deep connection to the universe. Pathways to Possibility expands our notions of how much we can grow and change, whether we can affect others or the world at large, and how much freedom and joy we can experience. Stimulating and profound, it is the perfect companion to her beloved first book, The Art of Possibility.

Download or read book Conversations with Cadbury written by Dolores Arste and published by . This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about learning to have a relationship with a horse, person, or family member by learning to speak and be spoken to by a horse. Not all horses are born with the same ability to have a conversation with a human. This thought also applies to people in that not all people are equipped with the same skills to have a conversation with each other or with an equine. At the beginning of every new relationship, we all bring what we bring; our perceptions, our prejudices, our stereotypes, our fears, and of course our agendas and egos. By following the real-life story of accomplished horse and dog trainer Dolores Arste, we learn to overcome these hurdles and step into the realm of a true relationship. This book is not a "how to train my horse book." That is because this book goes beyond the conventional training methods of A+B=C. Conversations with Cadbury is about allowing for the unexpected and unique. This book helps us understand the art of relationship with a horse, dog or a human. It relates the struggles, successes and yes even the failures that occurred with one very special animal. Cadbury, the conversationalist, the teacher changed Dolores' life forever. Readers will enjoy the unexpected here, and begin to form their own bond with these amazing creatures.
