Boundaries are an interesting topic… because we have verbal boundaries, then we have physical boundary-setting, and then we also have energetic boundaries. If you say a verbal boundary to someone, like: “Do not speak to me like that.” But youRead more

We have now been on the could-be-kicked-off-at-any-minute land for almost 7 years. We have since made a couple of good property investments and the equity in our home, combined with the increased growth in our business, means that we canRead more

The journey to manifest our own land for the Singing Horse Herd starts waaay back. Although to be honest, we started trying to find/buy land 6 years before I even got Zorra. I’ve been tracking this journey – otherwise there’sRead more
Instead of viewing life as good/bad or black/white… what would happen if we viewed life’s experiences and emotions as colors? What if anger were yellow, and joy was black, and peace was purple, and pain was green, and so on?Read more

I was talking to Audelina about riding… if she wanted to do that, how she’d like to go about it, etc. And she assigned me an exercise. She told me to go stand on a tall box, or one ofRead more
How do you feel about riding horses for your own pleasure? And how were you initially taught to interact with horses by a trainer or human teacher? We have written quite a few posts on this blog about the tangledRead more
I have had several horses die and I wondered if I had done the right things for them. Actually I know I didn’t. In chronic illness I tend to panic and give my choices over to other people, particularly vets.Read more
Güliz was doing a zoom session with a client and the Singing Horse herd on Friday. As she was doing BodyTalk with her client, Güliz observed her releasing through her bones the genetic memory, or generational belief systems, that wereRead more

I sat down at my computer last week and there was a message waiting from Kesia: “Jax and Taro asked for your help – they both lost their minds just a few steps up the back trail today. Jax hadRead more
When we first enter into a deeper, more magical relationship with our animal partners, we may think that everything is going to be amazing, filled with love, and sometimes downright miraculous. And it is… but. It is also going toRead more
I received an email from a fellow horse listener in Italy, who had just watched the video with Audelina and Ben (another horse listener visiting from New Zealand). And this is the story she told me of what unfolded asRead more

If you’ve been following this blog for any length of time, you’ll know that I periodically write about the phenomena of Horse as Mirror. Of course this mirror function can be provided by any animals that live with us, andRead more
Sometimes our horses ask us to assist them in doing difficult things. Their higher self, or the self that wants to progress, has a desire or goal. But their current horse-self just can’t do it. So the horse asks usRead more
One of our horse listeners, who is also a professional musician, composed and performed this magical piece of music for Cobra on her oboe. What happens when we play the music she sent? This was such a beautiful and unexpectedRead more
I’d noticed a shift in Aude for about 10 days or so – she seemed more distant, more separate from the herd, and not as boisterously affectionate with me. Then I noticed the lump or growth on her chest. WhenRead more
The horses have given me the same lesson repeatedly: “Just because we love each other does not mean you should hand over responsibility for your body, or your safety, to me.” On this day Aude gives my barn helper, Natalie,Read more
We live in a world obsessed with ‘safety’. Even at the cost of joy, connection, vigor and vitality. I view things a little differently. Why would I throw someone who’s never been around horses, into the middle of my herdRead more
As the horses continue to teach humans how to set healthy (non-angry, non-striving, non-aggressive) boundaries, I realize how as a species (culture?) we humans seriously suck at boundary-setting. Is it any wonder that so many of us feel unprotected, unmoored,Read more
One of our horse listeners, Erin Lopes, is a high school teacher in California. She is using videos of the Singing Horse herd as part of her curriculum with her students – and interestingly the impact and retention of theRead more
Ever since I moved to this property five years ago, we’ve had 20-30 wasp nests in the barn and shelters every summer. But this year, we have THREE massive hornet/wasp hive colonies, in addition to the regular little wasp nests.Read more

After Cobra’s last powerful healing session with Dr. Juliet, I was thrilled with how much softer he’d become. So much of his aggression had just melted away. So when Juliet was out again a month later, I asked her toRead more
By Juliet Ghodsian Today Jini and I arrived at the barn with a sense of openness and expectation. It felt like today would be the day that Cobra was ready to fully release the anger and pain he has beenRead more
Cobra’s healing journey started in the usual way, as our attention was called to, and focused on the physical symptoms of distress or malfunction. Right from when Güliz first met him, she noticed that his hind legs were not inRead more
So I spent quite a bit of time last night judging my brother. And even though my words were fairly neutral, my energy was not. I had completely let go of the concept that everyone is my teacher, that everyoneRead more

The horses tell me that it is very important for each of us right now to strengthen our energy field and push it outwards as much as we can. They say over and over that we do not realize howRead more
On a cold winter day, the horses dig, scoop and roll in a mud pond! In over five years in this muddy rainy climate, I have never once seen the horses do this. Are they simply playing, or do theyRead more
Next week I will be publishing a podcast, about the different ways you can meditate with your horse and all the beneficial effects that will have on your relationship… but for this week I’ve got a guided meditation for youRead more
By Tamara Nowlan Working with animals is one of the most enjoyable, soul-fulfilling activities for me. It is just me and my horse and my dog, and a crew of young people I have educated. We work together with theRead more
It’s interesting how many times the wisdom the horses share dovetails perfectly with what I’m learning, or something I’m currently in process with, in my own life. The very next day after I watched a video lecture from world-renowned medicalRead more

BIG changes here at Singing Horse Ranch and the previously unthinkable has just occurred… It all started back when Jax, Juno and Montaro escaped under the nose of my barn help, out onto the road, crossed 5 lanes of rushRead more
One thing every vet will tell you, is that animals experience pain the same way humans do. So just because your animal doesn’t appear to be in pain, doesn’t mean they are not feeling pain. I understand what the vetRead more

I had a full-blown, snot-dripping, throat-aching meltdown at the barn. I was hissing with anger, stomping my feet and swiping the air with my fists, as I punctuated my tirade. The horses stood where they were when I began myRead more
I went to the barn the day after a big healing session… why do most of the horses want nothing to do with me? I processed some deep childhood stuff during the session with my friend Jenny Andrews (EFT, MatrixRead more

Whether you’re dealing with a wild horse, an abused horse, or a horse that just doesn’t trust you, or want to hang out with you… how can you genuinely shift that relationship to where the horse freely chooses to beRead more
I arrived at the barn. I could feel a rumbling of anger beneath the rib cage, just above the belly button. Like a heartbeat that with every pulse, the anger would swiftly move up to my throat, then back downRead more
