Description: Who can bring healing to psychopathic teenagers given up on by the psychiatric community? Who can help a sociopathic youth become a valued, trustworthy, productive member of society? Who can turn around the life of a murderous gang member? As therapists Adele and Deborah McCormick found, the answer lies not in the psychiatric clinic, but in the stable. In this fascinating book, readers will find that sometimes the best healers are not humans, but Peruvian Paso horses. Amazingly intuitive and responsive, these four-legged therapists bring healing where traditional therapy alone fails. The McCormicks tell the engrossing tale of how horses became their partners in the therapeutic process. Lively case histories and stunning photography bring to life the principles they discovered as the horses became both healers and teachers.

In the final section on spirituality, the McCormicks describe how adults from all walks of life have learned from the horses a way to connect with their most deeply intuitive center, and how the horses nurture creativity, and then reveal the point at which we find oneness with God and with all creation.
