Be kind to your mind. Take a moment to pause; look; breathe. Focus on a plant, on some water, on any nature. Look at a nature picture, look out of the window… even better, go outside. Practice daily; connect with others. Take care of your mental health 💜

The plant in the large terracotta pot lost the ability to stand after enduring gail force winds from hurricane Beryl- it had completely fallen down. I moved it to offer it support from the bigger wooden post to the left.
🪴
Today when I checked, I was amazed: it has grown significantly, and as you can see, has grown stronger roots and can stand tall and support itself on its own- no longer leaning on the wooden post.

Sometimes we can all fall down emotionally, physically or otherwise, at any age, any stage and for any reason in our lives. We really do sometimes just need someone or something to prop us up until our roots become strong again (or indeed someone to encourage us to move towards the support). It’s when we can’t, don’t or won’t reach out for support, that we can stay fallen down and stuck.
🫂
If you’re a professional or client and need support either through a one-off psychotherapeutic consultation/session or clinical supervision or consultation, please don’t hesitate to reach out in confidence. DM or email: info@equineenlightenment.co.uk

Title

‘Exploring an animalistic, trauma-informed framework understand depression, and the need for effective non-traditional psychotherapeutic interventions that attend to physiological processes.’

Abstract

Drawing on historical and current medical model trends, as well as the epistemologies and their impact for how we understand depression, leads to the crucial question for whether depression is a permanent or curable human phenomenon. Presenting animalistic and evolutionary perspectives within a biopsychosocial framework, offers a choice to individuals experiencing
depression, that symptoms may be inherently fluid and a temporary part of the human condition. Furthermore, that early childhood attachment and trauma can shape our predisposition for experiencing depression is discussed. Neurobiological and neurochemical processes are identified as driving factors for depression from a
trauma-informed lens, and psychotherapies that incorporate animal, nature, and somatic elements are offered as alternatives for supporting a biopsychosocial, body-based way of working with depression.

About Us

Combining traditional room-based 'talking therapies' with Equine, Canine & Nature assisted therapies for positive, long-lasting results.

Equine Enlightenment offer a broad range of traditional psychological services, including assessment, formulation and NICE (National Institute for Clinical Excellence) evidence-based psychological therapies, as well as clinical supervision and CPD for practitioners.

Our broad range of therapies offer an alternative solution for clients who find it hard to open-up, talk, or trust, or would like to try something different to a ‘clinical’ setting. It encompasses a safe, containing way of supporting clients at their own pace, whether in nature, with horses or dogs.
