"Dark night of the soul" sounds like a threatening and much to be avoided experience. Yet perhaps a quarter of the seekers on the road to higher consciousness will pass through the dark night. In fact, they may pass through several until they experience the profound joy of their true nature.

Equine Sports Massage Therapy
ESMT utilizes basically the same techniques applied to "people," but are modified specifically for the equine musculature. With 60% of the equine weight being muscle, full pain-free range of motion, and naturally enhanced performance are just some of the benefits obtained with equines of all disciplines. No animal or human should have to wait to be injured before receiving help. The old cliché of "if it isn’t broke, don't try to fix it" does not apply. Prevention is essential for optimal performance, safety, longevity, and overall well being for horse or human. Prevention is the key as most strain-type injuries are cumulative in nature, and are preventable.

Three important factors for any athlete horse or human are to be as good as possible, to be as safe as possible, and to last as long as possible.

Wounded Warrior Presentation

Sharing the War Experience: an Epic Tradition

Native Americans came together in smoke lodges to listen to their returning warriors. Sharing combat experiences in story helped warriors cleanse their minds and hearts from the aftermath of war. By respectfully listening to their stories and honoring their sacrifices, the community reaffirmed their warriors' dignity in the face of terrible losses.

Warriors today suffer their losses in isolation, feeling that the average American is completely disconnected from them and could never begin to appreciate their sacrifices. And the pain of coping with psychological injury from combat trauma often drives warriors and families into utter isolation.
