A look into the true nature of the horse and the spiritual connections between horse and human. The ability of the horse to sense emotion, energy & spirit goes way beyond what most of us realise.
When Pam Billinge's mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, she noticed how her horse's behaviour changed in response to her emotional turmoil. Thus began a transformational journey in which Pam came to fully understand the depth of the spiritual relationship between horses and humans and the horse's infinite capacity to help us heal.
Pam began her pioneering work as an equine assisted coach and therapist in 2008 and since then her herd has supported many individuals from all walks of life. In The Spell of the Horse, she courageously shares her own path to redemption from personal tragedy as well as many other stories of healing inspired by the incredible interactions she has observed between horse and human.
This pragmatic, mindful self-help memoir is perfect for those who wish to deepen their relationship with horses, themselves and the natural world around them. It sets out simple principles to help the reader cope with challenges and lead a happy, fulfilled life. These may include: Compassion and self-compassion,
Finding purpose,
Coping with loss,
Well-being and resilience,
Separation and loneliness,
Career change,
Leadership and self-leadership.
