As an Animal Communicator, you can get a sense of the atmosphere in places you enter. Particularly when you walk into a horse training and boarding facility. The sense I’m talking about isn’t the moisture, pollen or ammonia density, I mean the ’sense’ of how those who live iin this place feel. Some ’senses’ are so peaceful and welcoming while others are, well, let’s just say, contrary to that idealic image. It reminds me of how many times I am bombarded by the sounds of a radio blasting, incessantly, 24/7. I was told by the management that ‘horses like to have stimuli. It keeps them from getting bored.’ Well, those folks probably never asked the horses how they felt about the constant wavelengths dulling their very sensitive ears. These very sentient creatures, horses, are already highly tuned. I learned today from Janet Marlow, an expert in the field of sounds, horses and music, that horses and people ‘hear’ at the same level. And, that what bothers people will definately bother a horse. The difference is that people aren’t necessarily bothered to begin with and if they are they can choose another station or better still, turn it off. Be kind to your horse’s ears. Be kind to his mental self. If you feel he needs sounds to make him happy, give him the sounds he really craves, the sounds that nature shares. The problem is, can we recognize those nature sounds ourselves? The day of the iPod has overshadowed the sweet sounds of- just nature. Your horse will thank you for it.
