My job is to support her with a peaceful feeling. Turn sideways with anxious horse. Started at level 7. doing some yawning, she is no longer thinking about her horse friend.

no need to touch her. note the space distance where you have their attention.

Watch for level two, when eyes are closing and opening. Level One is when they are closed, zero is when they are closed(sleeping/healing state). Other horse(grace) started laying down because responsibility fell on Grace's shoulder.

support Grace by creating a peaceful environment. Grace laid down and slept. When you come into zero state of thinking, you get into a healing state. She was gone even though her eyes were open. A trusting horse will often go down quickly.

Work with the friends together. Support Bella, when she lays down sleeps she will trust you.

when Bellla came over to the door to meet James he was able to touch her. If she looks to get scratched then scratch her. But allow her to make the movement towards you first. James is teaching her to trust people when they approach her.

Find the present moment by centering yourself before you work with horses. Do this far from the horses. Acknowledge any thoughts focus on your spot do the TT. Animals judge humans like we judge. We train animals to change their perspective.

move forward get present move forward get present. if they are eating around you, that is good. When animal is very nervous they usually aren't interested in food . After present for about a minute. Bella is curious. Grace next door lay down. Bella now comes to door. Grace slept again- needed release. James and mgr went into Bella's stall, Bella wanted to be close to them. they were able to interact. Bella started yawning, small in the beginning. Holding a lot of nervous tension. Gave Bella the opportunity to see humans in a different light. WAIT FOR INVITATION. could be head turn, ear locked on. Progress it more and more. Work for briefer periods in the beginning, like 15 minutes.

video 3:

now Bella is coming to the door for attention. What you will find you will need less present moment and more action as she develops more confidence.

Walk, if she moves away, get present, walk again. Sensitive to her needs. when James approaches, she gets nervous so James steps away and gets present. He learns what distance acceptable to her. He may take a step, if she moves away, get present, then move two steps. ONLY 10-15 MINUTES WITH BELLA WHEN SHE IS SENSITIVE.

Grace got a little mouthy, James stayed present and gently moved her mouth away then moved across the stall and laid down. often the horse will come and touch you.James was moving hands but there was no reaction, so even though eyes are open she is pretty much gone.

Relationship with people has always been there we just need to be quiet enough to see it.
