Healing from Horses

Do you ever feel overwhelmed?

I have been working on my next novel, The Secret Life of….. This project has been lurking on my computer and consistently calling my name for decades- no kidding. I have now vowed to address this novel before I dive deeper into another.

The Secret Life of….

The words and chapters have been ruminating inside me and I have reached
the crucial point of dissection; too many words. This stage of editing can be daunting. When I need a break or diversion, I head to a place of enlightenment, a place that has changed me forever with no words, only hugs and whinnies!

I have found that when feeling overwhelmed or unappreciated, volunteering is simply fulfilling because of what it gives back to my heart, especially when the staff is furry!

The incredible healing of horses!

Let me tell you about Talisman Therapeutic Equestrian Center, where horses
provide healing!

After even one session of working and watching these creatures transforming the lives of children, veterans, the elderly, and every human they touch, I can return to my writing desk changed and recharged to tackle the novel or other issues. There is never a moment after I volunteer that I feel unappreciated. Instead, I leave feeling blessed. They have given so much more to me than I could give them. If you search for an uplift in your life, please consider volunteering or donating. A single lesson requires multiple assistants along with the instructor. All of which is funded by donations.
