Recently, Dr. Sarah Matlock (our incredible Manager of Research and Evidence-Based Practices) joined an international team of scientists and equine professionals to explore how wearable technology can measure brain activity, physiological responses and sleep patterns to inform equine care, learning, training and management and advance horse welfare.

October 28 is National First Responders Day!

Today, we’re recognizing the first responders who show up for our community, often during some of its hardest moments. The long shifts, difficult calls, and stress that comes with the job can take a toll, and the people who care for others deserve care, too. ❤️

Through our First Responder Retreat Program, we offer a quiet, private space to step away from the demands of the job and spend time connecting with our herd. Through guided horse interactions, participants have the opportunity to build self-awareness, manage stress, and reconnect with themselves and others.

To the first responders in our community, thank you for all you do. We’re grateful for you, today and every day.

Happy World Occupational Therapy Day!

Today, we’re celebrating occupational therapists and the important work they do to help people build independence, develop everyday skills, and participate in the activities that matter most to them.

At Hearts & Horses, our occupational therapists in our Therapy Services program bring their expertise into a unique environment, incorporating horses into individualized therapy to help clients work toward their goals. From building coordination and balance to strengthening daily living skills, they meet each person where they are and help them make progress in meaningful ways.

To our OTs, you are amazing, and we are so proud to work alongside you and learn from you! 💛

Happy National Mule Day!

While we currently have just one mule holding it down at Hearts & Horses (we love our queen, Allie), we have been so fortunate to have had several fantastic mules over the years at Hearts & Horses. Today, we honor Allie and Joe Buck and Sadie and Lucy Longears and all the other mules who have been a part of our programs at some point!

We know firsthand just how special mules are! They’re strong, sure-footed, and have plenty of endurance. And that “stubborn” reputation? Sometimes they just like to think things through before making a move, which we can certainly appreciate.

Here's to all the mules out there!
