I believe that if people could learn a non verbal inter species form of communication and way of ‘being’ that was based on concepts of respect, sensitivity, awareness and compassion they might change how they treat each other and the natural world.

Great work Yaandina Community Services.

Looking forward to seeing this wonderful resource!

I’m working on a new set of workbooks 🐴📚✨

They’re learning resources for children who don’t do their best thinking sat at a desk.

They’re built around how horses learn and live.
Moving, noticing, pausing, trying again, thinking while doing.

You don’t need a horse to use them.
You can use them at home, outdoors, in short bursts, or spread across the day 🌿

The series is called Learning Like a Horse.

Each book focuses on a core learning skill rather than a school subject.

Things like attention, energy, time, problem-solving, and belonging 🧠💭

The activities include drawing, observing, mapping, talking, moving, and making sense of real life. The sort of learning that often gets missed because it doesn’t look like “proper work” ✏️👣

They’re aimed broadly at ages 6–14, with the same pages working differently depending on the child.

If you’ve got a child who learns best while moving, fidgeting, chatting, or staring out of the window thinking very hard, these will probably make sense to you 🐎✨

I’ll share a proper look inside the first book soon.

When a client makes you smile like this!

Thank you Faime and the Heart Herd for being there for our son for all of 2025.

I think back to the early sessions about how you taught him to use his energy with your beautiful horses and how every session after has been centred around this

He is no longer someone that struggles the way he use to.

You have given him tools for the rest of his life Faime.

🧠💥 POLYVAGAL THEORY (aka “Why you snapped at your partner, cried in Tesco, and then needed a nap… all in the same hour.”)

Let’s make it simple. Like, ponies-in-a-field simple. 🐴

Because your nervous system? She’s dramatic. She has moods. And she doesn’t always let your brain know what she’s doing.

So let’s meet the three ponies of Polyvagal Theory:

🖤 Fight-or-Flight Pony – jumpy, twitchy, ready to bolt because someone looked at them funny. Will probably scream if you drop a spoon.
(Yes, this is why you couldn't reply to that text. Or got irrationally angry at the slow WiFi.)

🤍 Safe and Social Pony – this pony is vibing. Makes eye contact. Can handle a chat. Will help you carry your emotional bags AND make you a cuppa.
(This is the version of you that’s brushing your horse, laughing with a mate, and actually responding to emails.)

🤎 Shutdown Pony – she’s DONE. Over it. Can’t even. Has entered energy-saving mode like an old laptop.
(Not lazy. Not rude. Just nervous system: unplugged.)

💡Polyvagal Theory says:
You’re not broken.
You’re not overreacting.
Your body is just trying to protect you — sometimes in ways that feel ridiculous (but make total sense underneath).
