During the ELEA equine learning program I have learnt to control my anger, by not letting me mind take over my emotions. I have also learnt our bodies send out energy or signals and the other person or animal senses your emotions or feelings from your energy. I also learnt new words such as congruence: meaning that what your feeling on the outside affects what your feeling on the inside. Grounding: meaning that your able to connect and feel the movements of everything around you. Problem Solving: meaning that you try something differently if the way your trying isn’t working. Being Fully present: meaning that your more focused on your bodies feelings not what your mind is feeling. Connection: meaning that your able to connect with the horses by focusing on your surroundings not your mind. I also got to work with Emily and the horses Sally, Maddie, January Jones, Razzle Dazzle and Ruby. Being close to the horses is like having another friend or family member because you get so attached and loving towards them. I also learnt about authentic and false self voices. False Self meaning that someone or yourself is believing something that isn’t right or true and authentic self meaning that you know and believe whats true and how you or your body really is.
