What an honour to have a conversation with Dr. Susan Fay about her fascinating research about horses, presence and relationship, her work with breathing and the nervous system, the many meanings and nuances of sacred space and the ways these spaces support our relationship with horses. What a joy! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.
