Jack
I met a lovely coloured gelding we will call Jack, he has been with his Mum Jane since he was 2 years old and he is now 7. I entered the yard to find a very cheeky head over the door and as Jane was completing the paper work I introduced myself. He came across as very confident and even a little cocky! I asked his Mum to put on his head collar and remove his rug. As this was done Jack changed and became a little anxious when he realised that something was going to happen.
I spoke to him and explained to Jane what I was going to do and then scanned him over, he had heat all down his left side, and over his pelvis. When I feel heat it does not always mean that there has been an injury a lot of it can be stored emotion from past trauma. As I was talking to Jane it became obvious that Jack was not very good about personal space, as I watched Jane and Jack together he was trying to take control all the time. In only little ways but this was enough for Jack to feel in control and then he would become nervous. As I started healing I told Jane that she needed to think of him as a 4 year old as his mental age was younger than his years.
I started healing his left side and he became still and absorbed the healing, he showed me that he hated things behind him. I saw a picture of him much younger and a rough man with him, he was being made to drag things behind him and he hated it. He started kicking out with his hind legs to show me how he felt. Anything attached to him that is behind will panic him, I told Jane this and she confirmed that she had recently tried a persoa and he had gone mad until she had removed it.
Jack carried on showing me that he dislikes men and the smell of cigarette smoke, it brings back bad memories of when he was very young. As the healing continued and I changed sides, Jack became quite nervous of the healing energy and I also used the energy of the rope to help him. I gently spun the rope so that he had something to focus on and then I had my gateway in and he absorbed the healing energy. He totally relaxed and his eyes closed as he drifted into the healing. As I worked my way down through his body I felt heat and he showed me a harness that he had worn. As we let all these old memories and emotions go Jane also felt very emotional to, Jack licked and chewed and yawned and yawned as the healing energy worked its magic.
While Jack was in a healing doze I spoke to Jane about how she can give Jack confidence by always gently being in control, I showed her how to use her body to communicate with Jack. Also she needed to be very aware of her own body energy and slow her breathing down. If she is anxious then this would in turn make Jake anxious so it had to come from her.
At the end of the healing I chatted to Jane and she said that she had been amazed how Jack had accepted the spinning rope near him. If anyone else had done this he would have shot to the back of the box. I explained that the rope was an extension of me and the intention was to relax him and help him find peace. Had I swung the rope the other way this would have altered the intention and he would have been scared. Jane then went on to tell me that that Jack had spent his early years with the gypsies and she had rescued him, he is now in a forever home and both Jack and Jane are on a journey to horse XX
