Success Stories

Major Asset, Thoroughbred

When I began working on Major, he was 15 years old and he’d been lame off and on for about one year, sometimes even on soft surfaces.

One week after shoeing, Major was still significantly lame, even on soft surfaces such as grass and dirt. Two weeks after shoeing on October 2, 2008, he was still showing lameness.

Major had “decided” that he hurt. It wasn’t so much that he actually hurt any longer.

Since the last show of the season was October 4, 2008, only 2 days away, and he was supposed to be ridden in lead-line classes, I did a half an hour of verbal and hands-on processes with him and turned him back out to pasture.

The results were immediate and astounding! He happily galloped out to meet his friends toward the back of a 10 acre pasture.

He was able to go to the show and bring his little rider some ribbons! He has shown no additional lameness in nearly 2 years, has not required any further therapeutic shoeing, has been able to be ridden more consistently without problem.

How does it get any better than that?!

Willz, Thoroughbred

I was contacted by my friend and animal communicator, Bridget Pilloud, telling me she had a horse who needed my help. Since Willz was in New Jersey, at the time, most of his work would be done long distance and then I would coach his owner through the hands-on work.

Willz had some issues with a cough, nasal discharge and fullness in his ears, as described to Bridget. His person also indicated that he felt very unbalanced and that she could not take him out around the farm or he became very nervous and panicky.

Willz’s thought that his insecurity and imbalance would cause injury to his precious person. He had “decided” it was unsafe to leave the arena.

I worked with Willz long distance for 5 sessions, doing verbal processes with him as well as teaching his person a hands-on process to use to further unlock the stuck energies.

Here is an excerpt from the email I received from Willz’s person:

"after a quick warm up in the ring, we went for a nice trail ride. Round trip was probably about 2 miles, almost to the very back of the farm. We had to go up a dirt road next door, then past some equipment and egg shell piles, over some rail road tracks, through some somewhat trappy footing, up and down a couple of little hills, off the beaten path because we missed the turn into the field...The only time Willz has ever been back to that part of the farm before he SHREDDED his bell boots dancing and jumping. Last night he was calm and cool once he settled into what we were doing (he was a wee bit nervous on the way out, but still so good!).. I am even prouder of him than I was before! Next ride we'll go all the way back to the river, or if I don't have someone to go with, we'll just see how far we can get on our own. It was an exciting night in such an awesome way. The best part is that once we get going he actually seems like he's ENJOYING himself, not just tolerating it for my sake. That part makes me the happiest of all!"

She is able to ride him out now with no panicking. They might even be able to do hunter paces, if their schedule allows, which she never thought possible.

Caren & Journey, POA

When I first spoke with Caren, she indicated that she was fearful of riding her horse, Journey...and rightly so. She described several incidents with him spooking and tripping where she’d been badly injured. Journey tended to rush things and “forget” where his feet were which created a snowball-type effect in their work together.

I worked with Caren on her fears, giving her some verbal energy processes to use daily to facilitate in dissipating the fear she experienced.

Since Journey is not in Minnesota, I worked with him long distance to also assist Caren. Journey is a great little horse! He enjoys games and likes to “be afraid” of things for fun. But when I asked if he liked hurting Caren, his energy read, “Of course not!”

So, after explaining to him that his antics were hurting Caren, I asked if he was willing to choose something different.

In addition to working with Caren and Journey, I gave Caren some hands-on processes to use on Journey to facilitate more awareness of his body. That combined with some exercises such as stepping over a ground pole and stopping before moving forward have really helped to slow Journey down mentally.

After only 2 weeks, Caren reported having far greater awareness of what Journey required of her as a rider and “I walked him over poles that were close together and he slowly picked his way through w/o a single tick… I've done the stuff for Journey a couple of times, too. The first time he seemed to really enjoy it … The second time, I was interrupted after about 7-8 minutes and he was still enjoying the sensations.”

These two are able to work together more peaceably now.

Snickers, Bernese Mountain Dog

I do not discriminate on the basis of species so when I got a call from a friend with a sick pooch, I gladly accepted her request for assistance. Snickers had been diagnosed with lymphoma and kidney failure when she called. He was doing okay, but seemed slightly depressed and lethargic and hadn’t been eating much.

Snickers was struggling with knowing that his time was soon, but also feeling a bit like, “Don’t write me off yet!”

I worked with Snickers for about an hour, getting information from him and doing some hands-on processes as well. While I was there, he ate for the first time that day and perked up significantly, even so much that his eyes were no longer dull!

The following day, I received an email from his person that he seemed more like himself than he had since coming home from the vet’s office and that he was eating better. Over the next few days and weeks, Snickers even regained some of the weight he’d lost.

Snicker’s family was able to enjoy there last few weeks together with a happy and peaceful Snickers, rather than the listless and depressed Snickers they had experienced momentarily.

Chocolate, Thoroughbred

Chocolate was a horse with a collapsed spirit (or zone). When I walked in the barn, he was ‘hiding’ in his stall silently screaming, “Don’t touch me!” My heart broke for him. I promised Chocolate that I wouldn’t touch him until he was ready to be touched and even went so far as to halter him in such a way that I never laid a finger on him.

Chocolate had been purchased for a young girl who had outgrown her pony, but shortly after the purchase, he came up lame. The vet discovered he had a bone chip and would require several months of stall rest. His little girl was devastated.

Chocolate had been on stall rest for 4 months with no improvement. The veterinarian had been out for another assessment and said that Chocolate required another month of stall rest and he’d reassess at the end of a month.

Chocolate had the memory of the trauma he experienced when he was injured locked up in the cells of his body.

I did verbal processes and when he was ready, hands-on processes on Chocolate for his injury. He perked up immediately and seemed much more at peace in his body.

The following Saturday when I arrived at the barn there was a note from the barn owner that said that Chocolate was wild and they’d had to cut his grain and take him off alfalfa and that he was returning to riding that week!!! How cool is that?!

Chocolate stayed at the barn for another week and a half while his little girl began slowly riding him again and then went on to a barn for full time training.
