Equine Guidance® offers a powerful solution to eliminate outdated patterns that hold people back. These habits are usually hard-wired into human brains, serving as outdated coping mechanisms. New neural pathways are forged by dissolving these patterns, allowing people to achieve personal growth and mastery.
Belle Shook passionately states, "For over two decades, my work has centered around trauma-informed care. I firmly believe that trauma can be the cause of disharmony in our systems, relationship troubles, physical imbalances, lack of creativity, and emotional baggage that can get stuck in a person's neurobiology. While stress and anxiety are inevitable, I believe it's possible to integrate and process the emotional charge effectively through Equine Guidance®, and I'm here to help you on that journey."
Belle Shook, an intuitive therapist and coach, and her herd, Mimi, Penny, and Salsa, help people achieve enlightened understanding, intuitive insights, and sparks of evolution and expansion. With Equine Guidance®, a unique horse-human experience, breakthroughs are created that cannot be achieved through talk alone.
Internationally acclaimed Physician, Bestselling Author, and Trauma Expert Dr. Gabor Mate eloquently states:" Medical thinking usually sees stress as highly disturbing but isolated events such as, for example, sudden unemployment, a marriage breakup, or the death of a loved one. These major events are potent sources of stress for many, but there are chronic daily stresses in people's lives that are more insidious and more harmful in their long-term biological consequences. Internally generated stresses take their toll without in any way seeming out of the ordinary."
Did you know unresolved life circumstances act as shadows and blocks that can linger in our nervous system, significantly impacting our overall health and well-being? Over time, these stresses can also break down our immune system, making us more susceptible to physical illness and emotional imbalances. So, taking charge of our lives and resolving any lingering issues is essential to living our best, healthiest life possible!
Since 2004, the Somatic Equine Guidance® Experience participants have reported a significant sense of ease, a greater sense of self-trust, resilience, and peace. This has been known to activate creativity, focus, intuitive intelligence, and heart coherence. Coherence, in this context, refers to aligning all aspects of an individual for the highest possible outcome. As a result, participants have a reference point for their optimal selves and an upleveling to continue elevating their coherence beyond the barn, arena, and Sedona!
Did you know horses can help us achieve emotional balance in mind, body, and spirit? Humans naturally entrain to horses' lower respiration and heartbeat, and horses are experts in communicating through nervous system signals. With the help of these magnificent animals, we can break free from those stubborn, stuck states from the past. It's truly inspiring to think about the transformative outcomes of Equine Guidance® and the contemporary collaboration between horses and humans.
Equine Guidance® sessions provide a transformational experience in which three American Bashkir Curly horses assist each individual. These horses are rare, with only 5,000 in existence worldwide, and are hypoallergenic for most people.
Mimi, Penny, and Salsa, alongside therapist and coach Belle Shook, are pioneers in Somatic Equine Therapy with over 25 years of accolades, helping those willing to open up to their innate healing potential. Through mindful interaction with these incredible creatures, people discover a language beyond words and gain a newfound sense of balance and clarity.
Provided with sacred horse time and compassion, clients break free of negative emotional states, making them feel more empowered and alive. This opportunity is not to be missed, and the transformative impact that horses can have on people's lives is truly remarkable.
In each experience of Equine Guidance®, clients are respected with trauma-informed practices as they interact with Belle and the horses. The experience does not include riding the horses; clients meet them—and themselves—with boots and hooves on the ground.
