Your horse is testing you', 'You can't let the horse win', 'You have to be the lead animal for your horse,' and many similar phrases are still on everyone's lips and minds, believed, taken to heart when dealing with horses, and passed on to others. But are they really true? What exactly is your horse testing? And what does it want to win? This book sheds light on these and other questions and encourages you to take a closer look.

Ever since I was a child, I have loved horses. I love everything about them: their gentleness, their noble character, their authenticity and their wisdom, their smell and their beauty. I love how they show show us our own limits, how they try to make us understand and how much we can learn from them. About them, about us and about life.
