Taking Back The Reins is for individuals that have ‘lost’ their way, who know they want to transform their life, rebuild relationships and recover from trauma. You're tired of feeling lost, like everyday is an uphill battle and disconnected from yourself and others around you. You may be struggling with PTSD or CPTSD, and are ready to access post-traumatic growth. You know you have it in you, you just need to understand how animals and nature can help turn your trauma around with personal development. Hosted by Dina Shale, leading trauma-informed equine specialist and founder of CPD accredited flagship programme 'Project Pony', as featured in the Daily Mail. You'll learn how to facilitate self-empowerment with unique equine therapy methods. This is the show for you to learn about the benefits of using animals in a personal therapeutic way, feel more connected, leaving you with the route to stress-free, peaceful life.
