Sacred Horse Wisdom: Breathing With Horses

Horses are prey animals, they live in herds, so their sense of energy and frequencies are finely tuned. If one horse in a herd senses danger, they all feel it instantly, the same with feelings of security, peace, and wellness. Horses are so sensitive they can sense a human’s heartbeat four feet away. When we meditate and slow down our breath to a steady rate, we can calm down our judgmental mind and find ourselves at peace with the present moment. It's here that we can then experience the magic of the horses responding to us. That’s when they tune in to our mindful energy, creating a connection—and nothing is quite as powerful as the experience of breathing with horses.

We will all spend quiet time with a horse, gently grounding ourselves in their presence—leaving behind our “parking lot worries.” We will then come together in Circle and be guided through a mindful meditation, deepening our breathing and connecting with a larger frequency, allowing our energy field or aura to connect with the horse(s).

After our group meditation, individually, during a semi-meditative state, you will bring this new energy back to the horse, allowing yourself to breathe with the horse, noticing the horse’s temperature of breath, the pace, the sound, the heartbeat, and slowly deepening your own breathing; maybe seeing if you can sync up your breaths while you both enjoy a relaxing moment. Notice how you feel before you begin breathwork and if any shifts occur while breathing or afterward.

This is a beautiful way to connect with Spirit. Remember, the same life-force energy flowing through you also flows through horses and all of creation—interconnecting us.

About our Guide

Brenda has had horses in her life since she could walk. She has over 30 years of training in natural horsemanship with a deep intuition of the powerful connection between horse and person.

Using the horses’ subtle cues and body language, she can reflect their keen attention to her own senses. She understands the gentle focus and stillness of listening to the horse. Therefore they can acknowledge her awareness and join her.

With Brenda's many years of meditation practice, she is able to stay present and help others learn to be present through breathing techniques. This mimics the horse's natural tendencies of being present and staying in the moment, developing a deeper connection with them.
