RE: [IceHorses] Improve your horses well being
Hi Sandy, I have read this book many times over the last year and I'm implementing many of Linda's techniques into my routines. Now I have a very close relationship to my horse. I thought I wanted to share with you this great book and ask is anyone else knows about it and practicing it. Let me know how it has works for you. Where do you live? This is one of Linda's favorite books and now it is out of print. The new book the Ultimate Horse Training and Behavior book covers everything that was in the Well-Being book so they won't reprint. Glad you are enjoying the work. For me the most rewarding aspect of teaching TTouch is the relationship that people gain, and often regain, with their animals. I think there are some people on this list that do some TTouch, you can also go to the Forum on the TTouch website if you have questions.

Every time I 've gotten a new horse it helped them relax and trust me, also the belly lifts really really work for tummy ache! it all works really. I think putting your fingers in their mouth helps with everything from worming to getting them to accept a bit the first time. I saw the new book at the store the other day and I cant wait to get it. I have had three TTOUCH books I loaned out and they werent returned ... oh well, good for a horse somewhere so ok for me :) I wish Linda would be on RFDTV again! Its going cable you know, on comcast. Janice -- even good horses have bad days sometimes.

I thought I wanted to share with you this great book and ask is anyone else knows about it and practicing it. Let me know how it has works for you. Sandy, I have this book too. Actually, I think I have all of Linda's horse books. 'Getting in TTouch' is probably one of the first horse books I bought and I started with some of the exercises with my new sensitive horse (QH/TB). It really got me going in the right direction in building an incredible relationship with this special horse. I really love her new Ultimate Horse Training and Behavior book. As Robyn said, it covers just about everything. Linda was at the Ohio Equine Affaire last year and it was great to finally see her in real life. I want so bad to do one of her week long clinics. Life has been a bit complicated lately. I go to her website periodically hoping that one day the location and timing would work. Maybe someday. I wish someone around here would be a TTouch/TTeam instructor. I've fanasized of going thru the training and becoming an instructor/trainer. Don't know if I could become good enough to help others and it would probably have to wait until I retire, but Sally swift didn't start her book writing and clinics until she retired.
