Revisiting one of our favorite episodes with Hugh Vail and his powerful message. Hugh is hosting ReWilding, a 4-day immersive experience July 6th-9th.
We have a good friend of ours on the podcast today, Mr. Hugh Vail. We’ve known Hugh for about 4 years or so and when we were introduced to one another, he began this process of working with wild mustangs. He was on his own journey of healing, which is something that really connected us. We discuss how horses are so similar to humans in various ways and how they are able to help us understand our own internal feelings. Our most profound messengers from inside of us are our emotions, and if we have resentment in our life or feel we’re carrying it, it’s because we have pain that has been avoided and ignored. “Don’t seek for peace because when you seek for it, all you get is non peace. Seek to just be OK with what is, and then you will all of a sudden have peace.” -Eckhart Tolle

“[Horses] are 99.9% the same as humans. There’s a couple things, obviously they’re on 4 feet, we stand up right, but when you get into the skeleton, they only have 2 more bones than we do because one of the joints in their feet moves differently. Other than that they’re the same, the same digestive system, the same reproductive systems, the same everything. The human body has 11 major systems and horses have the same systems.” 23:45
