Earlier this year I had the opportunity to experience Equine EMDR.
I have spent the last 5 years in a silent battle. A battle of shame, guilt, frustration, anger and loss. I would wake up every morning and go to bed every night with the same images, sounds and reels playing in my head. I would chase these demons away with everything from adrenaline to alcohol.
I was failing and that was getting more evident to the people around me...
I wanted control of my life.
I was tired.
To be outside, with a horse that can pick up your energy, your presence and feel you before you can is therapeutic in itself.
I am grateful for this experience and feel it’s time to share.
I can think about that night and not spin out.
I remember more now than I did before
and my association with RT91 is more peaceful than it ever was before.
I can breathe.
I can hear music again and smile.
I highly recommend this form of therapy.
I am truly grateful for this experience and know it has helped me.
