Recent studies conducted by the Institute of Heart-Math provide a clue to explain the two-way ′′healing′′ that occurs when we're close to horses.

According to researchers, the heart has an electromagnetic field larger than the brain: a magnetometer can measure the energy field of the heart that radiates from 2.4 meters to 3 meters around the human body.

While this is certainly significant, perhaps more impressive than the electromagnetic field projected by the heart of a horse is five times larger than that of a human being (imagine an electromagnetic sphere around the horse) and it can influence straight into our own heart rate.

Horses are also likely to have what science has identified as a "coherent′′ heart rate (heart rate pattern) that explains why we can feel better when we're close to them. Studies have found a coherent heart pattern or HRV to be a solid measure of well-being and consistent with emotional states of calm and joy-that is, we exhibit such patterns when we feel positive emotions.

A coherent heart pattern is indicative of a system that can recover and adapt to stressful situations very efficiently. Many times, we just need to be in the presence of horses to feel a sense of well-being and peace.

In fact, research shows that people experience many physiological benefits by interacting with horses, including lower blood pressure and heart rate, higher beta-endorphins (neurotransmitters acting as pain suppressors), decreased stress levels, decreased feelings of anger, hostility, tension and anxiety, better social working; and greater feelings of empowerment, confidence, patience and self-efficacy.

Eminem’s "Lose Yourself" is more than just a song—it’s a powerful anthem that encapsulates the essence of perseverance, ambition, and the struggle to overcome adversity. Released in 2002 as part of the 8 Mile soundtrack, the track quickly became an instant classic, marking Eminem’s first number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100. It resonated deeply with listeners, particularly those chasing their dreams against the odds. The song’s lyrics, such as the iconic challenge, “If you had one shot or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted, in one moment… would you capture it, or just let it slip?” capture the high stakes of pursuing one's dreams. Eminem reflects on his own life struggles, portraying both the personal sacrifices and the determination it took to rise from poverty and make his mark. The chorus emphasizes the urgency of seizing the moment, while the message of resilience is reinforced with the empowering line, “You can do anything... if you put your mind to it.” Over two decades later, "Lose Yourself" remains a symbol of hope and determination, having recently surpassed 1 billion streams on Spotify, proving its timeless appeal and enduring legacy as the anthem for dream-chasers everywhere.
