The Tao of Equus: A Woman's Journey of Healing and Transformation through the Way of the Horse
The Tao of Equus, which literally translates as "the way of the horse," explores the possibility that horses are highly evolved, spiritual beings who offer humans opportunities for healing and personal growth. Linda Kohanov is the owner of Epona Equestrian Services, an Arizona-based collective of trainers and counselors that explore the therapeutic potential of equestrian pursuits. Although she does discuss horse training and horse behavior, Kohanov is most interested in what horses can teach us. Moving beyond the realm of horse whispering, Kohanov studies how horses awaken intuition in humans while also mirroring our unspoken feelings and fears. At its core, this book reminds us to be mindful as we approach the horse-human relationship. Like human-to-human relationships, we have to do our own personal and spiritual work before we can expect to create a meaningful and cooperative interspecies connection. Kohanov is a steadfast writer who isn't shy about claiming a strong feminine approach, showing how mythology and history are filled with examples of powerful woman-horse connections. She also has the courage to reveal her paranormal experiences with these intensely emotional and intuitive animals--stories that may sound familiar to anyone who has ever loved and dreamed of horses. --Gail Hudson.

Riding Between the Worlds: Expanding Our Potential Through the Way of the Horse
Many people who love horses describe them as having a subtle, intuitive knowing -- what writer and equine pioneer Linda Kohanov calls black horse wisdom, "wisdom shrouded in mystery, wisdom that's felt more deeply than can ever be explained "

In this powerful follow-up to her groundbreaking work The Tao of Equus, Kohanov introduces new, provocative theories about the human-horse connection, theories supported by in-depth evidence from the round pen. "Horses," she maintains, "model an embodied spirituality, one that is both fully present in this world and deeply connected to the soul's divine origins." Kohanov explores how these animals support us on both levels, leading us to unexpected realizations about fear, intuition, awareness, empowerment, and above all, authenticity.

Riding between the Worlds not only continues Kohanov's amazing personal journey of transformation with her herd, it also relates numerous anecdotes of equine-facilitated healing, coupled with lucid explanations of the processes behind them. These stories demonstrate the undeniable connections that people and horses around the world are increasingly recognizing. They document the profound changes that emerge as taboos against treating animals as equals break down.

From intimate stories of cathartic breakthroughs in the saddle, to the moving tale of the birth of the newest member of Kohanov's herd, Riding between the Worlds presents a daring multidisciplinary exploration of the powerful spiritual, emotional, and psychological lessons horses embody. It delivers another tour de force from one of the equine world's most insightful writers, teachers, and trainers..

Spirit Horses
The power, grace, and freedom of horses had always resonated deeply with Stromberg Through his photographs of these magnificent beasts, he sees a way to bridge what he calls “modern life’s disturbing separation between people and nature.” The result is Spirit Horses, showcasing 140 of Stromberg’s extraordinary color portraits of these animals, along with quotations from leading teachers and writers exploring equine wisdom and its intersection with spirituality. The photographs in Spirit Horses were shot in a variety of locales, from wildlife sanctuaries to private ranches to natural habitats in Europe and the western United States. These images — and the accompanying quotes — offer a portrait of horses as profound teachers, giving strength and stability to a world out of balance.

Dressage in the Fourth Dimension
Dressage is often seen as the most formal and controlled of the equine sports, following an ancient, standardized training progression For philosopher and dressage instructor Dr. Sherry Ackerman, dressage is much more. It — along with riding in general — can be a transformational art and an avenue for reflection, exploration, and self-knowledge through which a rider can experience liberation from the individual, egoistic self.

This second, revised edition of Dressage in the Fourth Dimension is a pioneer work in awakening “dressage consciousness.” Drawing on such diverse sources as sacred geometry, ancient Western and Eastern philosophies, and esoteric spirituality, Ackerman seeks to heal humanity’s alienation from nature through riding. She points us toward the liberation from societal conditioning and normative thinking, and, ultimately, from our own egos. Her concept of the fourth dimension requires us to leave the analytic, objective mind behind and enter into the mystery of inspiration.

A short, unique, thought-provoking work that has enjoyed a word-of-mouth reputation among horse people for years, Dressage in the Fourth Dimension will challenge riders’ assumptions about their horses and themselves.

The Way of the Horse Journal
Horses in motion represent some of the most elegant creatures in all creation, and few have captured that elegance and power as Kim McElroy has. Through her mastery of pastels, the artist celebrates both the horse’s movement and the spiritual wisdom it embodies.

McElroy has developed a strong and growing audience for her unique style of painting, which equine author and teacher Linda Kohanov calls “archetypal realism.” Kohanov and McElroy collaborated previously on their Way of the Horse book and card set. Now they expand readers’ experience of this gorgeous art with the four-color hardcover Way of the Horse Journal. The journal has a magnetic folding cover and pages filled with McElroy’s color art along with plenty of blank space for equine-inspired writing or drawing. A foreword by Kohanov offers insights into the mystery and power of McElroy’s images and the lessons they can teach us.
