Telepathic animal communication provides the gift of voice for
Diana's horse Emma and brings to light Emma's insights into the
human realm and beyond.
Dr. Cheryl Schwartz, DVM, author of Four Paws, Five Directions,
described Emma as "one of the most unusual horses I ever met."
At the age of four Diana, who had been apartment bound, was
given the chance to ride a horse. For the first time in her life
she felt safe, free and filled with joy. From that day on she
possessed a mystical attraction to horses. Not until she was an
adult could she afford her first horse, however, she had picked
horses based on capabilities and not feelings. Then she met a
beautiful thoroughbred, Emma. An instant emotional bond drew her to
what many thought was a mentally unstable horse. Despite warnings,
Diana bought Emma and proceeded to school this capable athlete to
be her dream show horse. But soon Emma's inexplicable behaviors
interfered with her training. In search of a solution Diana was led
to Carol, someone who could communicate with animals
telepathically. Once her skepticism was overcome Diana regularly
spoke to Emma using Carol as the translator. Diana soon learned
that Emma was not like any other horse she or Carol had ever known.
Emma's wisdom, intelligence and abilities beyond the five senses
invited Diana into worlds she didn't know existed.

horse...and knowing ourselves through a holistic approach to
connecting with horses. Achieving this, we are more likely to
connect successfully with our horse, becoming the herd leader while
allowing our horse to express who he is. This is not about
dominance, but authentic partnership. Every page of this
conscientiously created guide leads us closer to that perfect
relationship where human and horse are filled with joy. Where do we
find such harmony? The answer lies in successful communication,
awareness, trusting our intuition, and understanding our bodies and
nervous system, as well as the horse's. As we learn all of this, we
move that much closer to the joy and unconditional love that horses
can bring.

has a natural ability to communicate with horses. This book will

secrets. Where seemingly ordinary horses tell their stories. some
enchanting, some sad and disturbing then there are those that will
make you laugh He is a "problem horse" this is a label given to
many when nobody has listened. Elaine is of the belief that a horse

your horse is trying to tell you and to look deeper within. The
Horses Voice will take you on a journey, one that will open your
eyes to not only your horse but also how your energy and emotions
effect your horse. How past experiences have been stored within, by
communicating and healing the emotions of these experiences can be
released. By releasing the energy blocks and counseling them
through the event that has caused it Elaine brings them peace. The
owners see the difference and they feel the difference, not only on
the ground but also when they ride. The stiffness has gone, the
body and mind is relaxed and the owner understands their horse and
begins to work in partnership with the horse and their relationship
will never be the same again. The session opens their eyes to who
their horse is, not an animal to be dominated and abused but a
being that feels more than you can ever imagine. The emotions that
are released during the session also forces the owner to break the
emotional barrier and release their anxieties as well. Elaine
describes herself as the horse counselor for mind, body and spirit
because when they are allowed to speak, their world becomes a
better place.
What is it about horses that draws people in so deeply? Why is it
that horses hold meaning and symbolism across cultures around the
world? Why do so many of us experience horses as not just beautiful
creatures but wise and healing teachers? These are some of the
questions that revered equine photographer Tony Stromberg set out
to answer with his best photos from the past half decade. The
resulting collection more than meets Stromberg's goal of
highlighting and honoring the mysterious ways horses and humans can
bring out the best, the highest, and the most powerful in one
another.
