Riding into Your Mythic Life: Transformational Adventures with the Horse

By their very nature, horses are mythic creatures that represent the human journey at its greatest. In Riding into Your Mythic Life, therapeutic-riding instructor Patricia Broersma invites readers on an experiential journey of transformation through these amazing animals. Drawing from her 40 years of work with horses and her studies in mythology, body-based healing modalities, and healing touch, Broersma offers readers the opportunity to explore and expand their potential through powerful experiences with horses and mythology. She uses the stages of the hero’s journey first elicited by Joseph Campbell as a framework: each stage is presented with a discussion of its particular mythic aspect along with exercises that develop compassion, intuition, leadership, and more skillful methods of communication. Through these exercises, readers learn to reframe their lives into a larger vision, allowing even painful events to help perpetuate a life of renewed commitment, joy, and enthusiasm.
