Book Description
I have written a daily devotional for the horse professional and the horse lover in all of us. This book will make your day better before you go out to the barn to do chores or work with horses. You will never look at your barn chores or riding your horses in the same way ever again. I now see the Lord in everything on our farm from watching the horses play outside to carrying fifty lb. bags of grain and cleaning stalls and finding joy in it. I think of him now in how I talk with my clients and how I run our barn. I have written this yearlong daily devotional to inspire you and make you laugh and even tear up at times. This devotional book will make you look at horses in a whole new way. It sure did for me as I was writing this book. Running a horse business or owning horses for pleasure can be great and at times it can be tough at times. I have written 366 days (yes, I've included February 29th) of stories and experiences of owning horses and working with horses and admiring horses for all they are. Each story and experience brings me back to the Lord and shows me how my life relates to everything that I do on our horse farm and in every horse I work with. At the end of each day and story is a bible verse that I truly believe relates to what the story is talking about. The more I dug deep into all that happens with horses through out their life the more I saw God in all of it. As I was writing this book I became more and more lifted up with each story I put down on paper. I pray this book will lift you up each day before you head out to the barn or give you a peace after a long day working with horses. I hope to give you a renewed excitement for all that you can be in the world of horses.

Book Description
A book chock-full of answers to horse-behavior questions that will change your horse's life for the better. Horses want partners they trust. Meeting their need for security makes them more tuned-in, calmer, and more reliable. In her engaging book, highly illustrated with professional color photographs, certified riding instructor Lynn Acton, MS, shows you how, with practical step-by-step instructions. You’ll see that progress can be surprisingly fast with methods that are gentle, time-tested, backed by science, and that make intuitive sense to your horse. Discover how to earn trust and make training more efficient by engaging horses’ innate intelligence, maintaining clear two-way communication, and considering their point of view. This leadership approach has been used successfully for centuries by people of all backgrounds and skill levels on horses at all levels of training. Acton refers to this relationship as Protector Leadership because you are the horse’s protector. In these pages, she combines extensive horse experience and an academic background in social dynamics with in-depth research. She interprets and cites the scientific findings that explain why Protector Leadership works, and offers valuable insights into equine psychology while exposing myths that are sources of problems. Plus, Acton includes “Things to Try” at the end of each chapter—fun and easy-to-implement exercises that help you engage your horse as a thinking partner Throughout, the narrative includes stories of Acton's progress with her own horses, including mistakes and hindsight, and especially the transformation of the book’s "cover girl" Brandy from a dangerous throwaway to a happy, reliable partner. Clear, detailed photographs show the subtle body language of horses and people, and illustrate critical interactions that make a real difference in our relationships, communication, and training. These are a few of the concrete skills you will learn: · Earn trust starting the moment you meet a horse. · Recognize “misbehavior” that actually means your horse is thinking like a partner. · Turn pressure into clear communication instead of stress. · Use Positive Reinforcement for better learning, behavior, and reliability. · Turn anxiety and spooks into confidence building situations. · Discourage unwanted behavior without punishment. · Allow your horse appropriate choices and freedom. As your bond strengthens, you can enjoy watching your horse’s true personality blossom. A thoughtful, progressive book for riders of all disciplines and students of the horse of all experience levels.
