Welcome to My Website
This
site is dedicated to health and well being (physical, mental and
emotional) of our horses in domestication.
My name is Becky Overland and Natural horse care and management is my passion. It is my belief that changes of a revolutionary level have come to the traditional horse world, and none too soon. Horses need all of us to truly understand their nature and their needs, in order to do what is best for them.
Why Hands for Horses? The name "Hands for Horses" reflects the importance of touch, and all the ways we relate to and interact with our horses - through our hands (and ultimately our whole being).
Whether it be through the wielding of tools, or grooming, or simply petting our horses; whether we put our hearts in our hands, use a soft "feel"; OR whether we are insensitive and rough in our manner - impatient, clenching and grasping for total control - how we use our hands to express our energy is part of creating a foundation for a relationship (for better or worse) with our horses.
Our hands can bring comfort and healing; or they can bring heartache and pain.
