After the session we chatted a bit and Julie offered to come
to our place and treat Remy also. I was rather skeptical, to be honest.
Hypnotherapy I can grasp and see where it helps – but talking with a horse?
Nevertheless, I thought it can’t hurt, and so Remy had his session.
It was really interesting to see how he reacted, I had him
loose on a leadrope in the barn and Julie was sitting in a chair in front of
him. Remy didn’t move, but I could see how his ears were going back and forth
showing that he was indeed engaged in some non-verbal communication. He was
relaxed the entire time, deeply sighing. Julie said she could feel that he has
the biggest heart ever, Remy wants to please, and that he is a real sweetheart.
So.. how did the conversation go? Well, Remy communicated
that he felt really shocked and guilty about what happened and that his biggest
fear is that “he gets send away again”.
Now, that is interesting. I never told Julie about his past. Remy was sold as a
six month old and got shipped from California to Montana. From there he was
sold as a three year old and subsequently had to travel across the country to
get to us. Remy also mentioned that he doesn’t always like his work (hah!), it
is sometimes too constraining and he likes to be free. Hmm… buddy, wouldn’t we
all like this!
Still, I take the hints: We’ll make sure the work is
appropriate, the playtime is ample – and yes, it is a lifetime commitment for
both of us. So, where’s my ring? J
