Book Overview

.highly recommended.it makes the subject of healing easy to understand for everyone.--Blyth Tait, Olympic Gold Medal winner. Lay your hands on a horse--and channel comforting, healing energy to him. A legendary healer, famous for her ability to deal with horses and their problems, shows you how. Anyone can apply these techniques to improve an equine's well-being and behavior: they're safe, free of side effects, and work on just about any condition. Use them alone or with other remedies so they'll work on a deeper level. After understanding what these methods do and why they benefit horses so much, you'll find out how to give a treatment.

And, in case you didn't know, horses have chakras, too--areas of maximum energy intake that have particular power.

A Wonderful Book!

This book is an excellent guide to "Hands On Healing" for horses. It is a very practical and compassionate book. It will give you the confidence to give safe and effective healings to your horse. I recommend it for both beginning and advanced healers.

Attractive, informative book

Margrit Coates has a gentle, yet thorough way of presenting her discussion on healing for horses. A gifted, natural healer from childhood, Coates was drawn to work with horses long before she had the means to do so. Her career in PR for a firm involved in equestrian products brought her into contact with many horses. Though she was successful in her work, and the primary wage earner in the family, she elected to study and practice healing and transitioned into this as her major occupation. Coates found that she could mentally communicate with horses, who told her of their physical and emotional traumas and pains. She was able to relieve many of them through healing, with rapid - often immediate - changes in behaviours to validate that healing was effective. Her descriptions and explanations of her healings are helpful in understanding healing as a treatment in general. This book is replete with explanations of various forms of healing, equine problems which have responded to healing, and further CAM approaches (acupuncture, craniosacral therapy) that can also be used for healing. What I found most interesting in this book are Coates' un-hyped descriptions of spiritual moments when she looked into particular horses' eyes and found herself transported into a timeless dimension. This book is attractive as well as informative, a pleasure to hold in one's hands.

Healing work open to all

Through this well-written book Margrit Coates brings healing work to horse and animal lovers of all ages and experience. She clearly explains healing with words, illustrations, and case studies. The reader comes away with practical knowledge and guidance on how to bring healing to animals. Using the information in Margrit's book has helped horses overcome trailer issues, calm them, and increase overall health and vigor. Each person can be a conduit for healing, and Margrit shows us how to start. I eagerly await her new book coming this June (2003) - Hands-On Healing for Pets, as well as her return visit to Oregon this September, 2003.

A must read for any body worker - human or equine!

Margrit has done an excellent job! It is easily the best energy healing book I have ever read. She is able to give some very clear, practical tips. After reading her book one would be able to go out and start doing this work with their horse. Even if they had never done it before.It is the type of book you can read over and over, and get something new out of it every time!
