Refinement of Your Practice
Lisa Murrell, Johanna Husta and the Equine Alchemy herd, www.equinealchemy.com hosted Kathleen for 2 days of continuing education for practioners of equine facilitated learning. Working with Lisa and Johanna and their fabulous herd of horses was so fulfilling for everyone. Among some of the topics discussed and the highlights were recent research on the 3 brain theory of learning; limbic revision and regulation; the differences and comparisons of Equine Facilitated Learning, Equine Psychotherapy, and Equine Assisted Coaching; working consensually with the horses online; leading exercises to determine primary communication styles; and facilitator’s experinces and the lessons they have received from their individual work with horses. Johanna Husta, jhusta@hotmail.com, demonstrated useful horse exercises which are very congruent with EFL work.
