The earliest evidence on the domestication of horses dates from 4,000 B.C. and for
centuries equines have been our faithful partners in warfare, in travel and in
agriculture. We can safely declare that they helped us build the modern world.
Nowadays, they were replaced by the engines of our vehicles and the only arena
where they can shine is the equestrian world.
But what if equines had much more to give us in a little-known area? In the world of
therapies, of personal development and of connection between species. Everyone
that has had contact with horses claims to have been changed by that contact.
However, no one can explain exactly how this happened.
In this book, Nathalie Durel tells us, through her life journey with her horses, how
equines can become powerful guides to our transformation. This work takes us
into an extraordinary journey throughout the equine world, starting at the
beginning of time all the way up to today, explaining with a holistic vision
every type of existing therapeutic intervention assisted by these wondrous
beings.
It also stresses the debt our civilization has in regard to equines and the importance
of changing our way of handling them that should be respectful to their true
essence.
