Therapeutic Riding
Therapeutic riding involves teaching the rider the necessary skills and
techniques required to ride a horse as independently as possible. The emphasis
is not only on the physical benefits of riding, but also on the development of
the relationship between the rider and the horse. The self-discipline required
to understand and control the horse instills a sense of responsibility and
enhances task concentration in the rider. The autonomy associated with
independently riding a horse also serves to promote the rider’s self-esteem
and positive body image.
NARHA
North American
Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) is the primary organization that
supports and promotes therapeutic riding in the U.S. and Canada. NARHA provides
program accreditation to ensure that standards are established and maintained,
so that riding centers can provide a safe therapeutic riding environment. NARHA
also issues instructor certification in therapeutic riding. Many therapeutic
riding centers in the U.S. are accredited and operating center members of NARHA.

Two Horses
Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it.
From a distance, each looks like every other horse.
But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice
something quite amazing.
Looking into the eyes of one horse you will discover that he is
blind.
His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good
home for him. This alone is amazing.
If nearby and listening, you will hear the sound of a bell. Looking
around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from
the smaller horse in the field. Attached to her halter is a small
bell. It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow
her.
As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see how she is
always
checking on him, and that he will listen for her bell and then
slowly
walk to where she is, trusting that she will not lead him astray.
When she returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, she stops
occasionally and looks back, making sure her friend isn't too far
behind to hear the bell.
Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just
because we are not perfect or because we have problems or
challenges.
He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us
when we are in need.
Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by the little ringing
bell of those who God places in our lives. Other times, we are the
guide horse, helping others see.
Good friends are like this. You don't always see them, but you know
they are always there.
Please listen for my bell . . and I'll listen for yours.
