Because horses are prey animals, they respond first to regulation, not words. When a person slows their breathing, softens their body, and finds calm, the horse responds in kind. That immediate feedback helps us practice emotional awareness, self-regulation, and confidence in real time. We 💜 Horses

Horses remind us that calm is a form of strength, and presence is a kind of leadership. Here’s a reminder for all of us: leadership looks different in different moments. This week, let’s practice being present.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. reminded us that justice is built through action.

At Chinook Horses, that means creating access to connection, learning, and healing—regardless of ability to pay. It means meeting people where they are and walking alongside them.

Today is a day of reflection—and recommitment.

When things feel hard or rushed, pause and check your body.
Is your breathing fast? Are your shoulders tight? Are your feet moving quicker than your breath? Horses just happen to be really good at reminding us. 🐴

We use the 7 Habits of Happy Kids to teach the importance of time management throughout their day, keeping in mind what is important, and prioritizing to meet important goals. This activity makes it crystal clear.

If you've set any goals for your new year... this might just help you too!
Remember to add your big rocks first!
