TRACEY KENNY DIVE is an accredited EAL PRACTITIONER and owner/director at EQUINE HEALING CENTRE BENDIGO.
Trained at the Equine Psychotherapy Institute in the Equine Psychotherapy model. Training is based on the overview of core principals and theory of GESTALT THERAPY and the WAY OF THE HORSE PSYCHO EDUCATION.
Horses live in awareness at all times.
They experience the four feeling domains of anger, sadness, grief and joy.
They experience all of these emotions, even when in a natural herd environment, then - they go back to grazing.
Horses don't hold onto thoughts and feelings the way humans do.
They self regulate their nervous system.
They do not judge.
Their communication is authentic.
They are intuitive.
They are responsive to the inner world of a human - for eg:-
If a human is nervous around a horse, the horse will sense this.
Scientifically their heartbeat will align with the human when in close proximity, when tuning in or working with the horse.
When you bond with a horse, they teach us to open our communication and relate with trust and love.
If we have experienced emotionally/physically abusive situations we can shut down and close off to life and live in a limited state of being.
Horses can help us heal.
