Meet J.R. Smith of the Veterans Ranch. J.R. takes us through his Nonprofit 501 (c)3 established in 2017 due to what people know of the "22 a day" saying.
The Veterans Ranch's mission is to assist Veterans and their families through Equine Therapy, a range of treatments that involve activities with horses to promote human physical and mental health. We assist these great Americans and their families in laying down heavy coats of burden and walk away as newer and improved versions of themselves.

For the Love of a Horse.
A benefit of working with horses is the fact that humans and animals require no words to communicate.
This opens up a line of communication that may not be breached when the Veteran is trying to work with a traditional therapist.
One unique aspect about working with horses is the way that these animals intuitively mirror feelings that a Veteran may be experiencing – whether or not they are aware of it.
Horses are very empathetic and they may reflect sadness, angst, or discomfort back toward the person they are working with.
This can help to promote self-awareness and open-mindedness, should the person make an active effort to interpret their horse’s behavior as a reflection of their own.
This feedback loop can help an individual see deeper into the patterning of their own brain, leading them to understand their emotional reactions.
