We have seen and heard about therapy horses and the effect they have on the people suffering from psychological shock. Those people claimed that these horses helped them get through difficult moments in their life and offered them the tranquility that no one else had offered them before. Maybe you have watched the movie or read the book of The Horse Boy which shows the healing power of therapy horses.
This video is similar to that displaying the story of an autistic boy who found a new life after he established a connection with horses. The story of this boy and the horse taught this family some new ways to connect not only with their son but also with one another. I’ve known about equine therapy for physical and mental challenges, but how incredible it became for this little fella and his family is just beyond words to explain.
This touching video shows us that it is not always about what you can see but it is also about what you feel and believe in. “His autism made me stop and listen to what he needed.” That realization by his father is the really powerful part of this and “finding out what he’s really interested in has made all the difference”. Watch, enjoy, and share with your friends!
