Hope . . . From the Heart of Horses explores and celebrates the relationship and bond possible between horses and humans. Each chapter offers a life lesson about trusting one's instincts, honestly addressing emotions, achieving clarity in communications, and releasing negative thoughts. Because survival depends on being highly tuned to the thoughts and feelings of others, horses sense human intentions rather than what a person offers in facial expressions, which creates a remarkable effect on the relationship between these two distinctly different species.

Horse ownership opens the door to companionship, happiness, and stress relief. But to benefit from all of these things, you need to have a true bond with your horse. And you need to be able to trust they have all the foundational skills they need to keep both of you safe. This is the key to successful horsemanship. Everything you need to know in order to do just that is right at your fingertips. Discover the secrets to building strong foundations with your horse…and watch as everything else falls into place naturally.
