<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>Drawing on his scientific understanding of the brain, noted neurosurgeon and lifelong horseman Allan Hamilton offers a new approach to horse training based on understanding the intuitive, nonverbal, right-brain communication process of horses.</b> <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Eastern philosophy enters the stables in this unique guide to horsemanship. Allan Hamilton describes how horses understand and respond to the flow of vital energy around them. They use this energy, called <i>chi</i>, to communicate with their herd, express dominance, and sense predators. Hamilton shares safe, simple techniques to make you more receptive to your animal's chi, so you can develop a calm and effective training style that will not only help your horse follow commands, but strengthen the spiritual bond between horse and rider.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Horse training presents unique opportunities to explore powerful spiritual truths. The exercises in <i>Zen Mind, Zen Horse </i>offer everyone who works with horses -- novice or expert -- a new understanding of how humans train and interact with horses and why these two species, one a master predator and the other the ultimate prey animal, have such a deep, natural connection. <p/>Horses have evolved to understand and respond to the flow of vital energy -- <i>chi </i>-- around them, using it in their body language to communicate with members of their herd, to express dominance, and to sense danger from nearby predators. Being quietly present and receptive to your horse's energy opens the potential of your emotional, intuitive right brain. These simple, safe groundwork techniques reveal a pathway to awakening your deep sensitivity, calm leadership, intuition, and mindfulness.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>Zen Mind, Zen Horse </i>is both practical and profound, offering sound advice for tapping the wisdom of horses as natural mindfulness teachers.<br><br><i>Zen Mind, Zen Horse</i> is far more than a book about how to care for a horse, though it stands out as one of the best on the subject. Rather, Hamilton has given humans a way to achieve our highest good by allowing horses to be our guides. This beautiful testament to the power and magic of equine energy captures the soul of a horse perfectly.<br><br>These deceptively simple techniques embody a powerful set of spiritual techniques.<br><br>Combining brain science, horse sense, and fine storytelling, this spiritual handbook points toward a special and completely real form of enlightenment.-- "Andrew Weil, MD, Author, Eight Weeks to Optimum Health"<br>
