Mindful of Horses, tells the riveting story of a journey of self-discovery and healing undertaken as a result of Helen’s work with horses and her attempts to ease their pain and improve their behavior. In the interim, these horses taught her how to look within to locate the sources of her own pain and self-defeating behavior. It is an inspiring tale, one that is also filled with many details, descriptions, and insights inviting the reader into this world of seeming magic and mystery. A world where animals communicate with humans and each party sees improvement as wounds are uncovered, inspected, and ultimately healed. Told with as much grit as compassion, Mindful of Horses is an engaging read on the connections between animals and humans and their ability to help make each other whole.
