From the moment I was 4 years old and sat on the back of a horse for the first time, giggling in a bubble of white light, I knew horses would always be part of my life. I still feel that bubble of light around me today as I am working with a horse. As a young girl my father encouraged me to pick up baby birds that fell out of the nest or birds that flew into the window, to hold them gently in my hands, next to my heart, sending them love and healing so they could fly away happy and amazingly enough, they did. I am very fortunate to have had this guidance as a young child that has carried me into many amazing experiences with animals.
