Psychological Safety – What Horses Have To Teach Us
This past weekend I had the good fortune of attending Wayfinder Wellnesses’ Equine Wellness Workshop https://lnkd.in/gcNNTN_r
It’s based on the principle that horses are good for the human spirit. It was a program open to First Responders, Military, Veterans, and their Spouses who have been psychologically injured in their work.
We learned, through an incredibly safe and supportive environment, how to connect with and make friends with ourselves by learning to make friends with these incredibly sensitive and wise animals.
In just a few hours, I got a taste of the deeply healing power of establishing a trusting relationship with horses by learning to partner with them.
Here’s some of what I came away with:
- Communication starts with knowing and accepting where you’re at.
- Be in the moment.
- Make a friend.
- Learn to listen.
- Find your balance.
- Discover inner peace.
- Build your confidence.
- Be part of a herd.
- Feel safety and security.
If you would like to learn more about my approach to psychological safety, I hope you’ll join me on Thursday for this week’s monthly complimentary webinar: https://lnkd.in/d37Prt4a
