When a horse closes its eyes beside you, it is not sleeping.

It is trusting.

In the wild, closing your eyes means danger.
It means vulnerability.
It means surrender.

So when a horse rests its head near your shoulder and lets its eyes fall shut…
That is not habit.
That is a gift.

It is saying:
“I believe you will keep watch.”
“I believe I am safe here.”
“I believe in you.”

And in a world where trust is rare —
That quiet moment is sacred.

Guard it well.

True 🙏🐴❤️

We can learn a lot from horses…”Feeling Safe transforms a horse’s biology. It raises oxytocin, boosts vagal tone, reduces stress hormones, softens the fascia, and shifts the entire body out of defensive tension.

When a horse feels safe — in their environment, with their handler, in their work — the nervous system no longer braces for threat.

The topline releases.
Breathing slows.
The gut begins to move again.
Movement becomes more fluid, coordinated, and effortless.

Safety is not an emotion for a horse — it is a physiological state.

And that state reshapes the body from the inside out.

A regulated, safe horse is a horse whose nervous system can finally rest, repair, reorganize, and reconnect with healthy patterns of movement and behaviour.”
