Hi, I am Maxine Smith and I am an Equine Facilitator for Human Development. My work is at its most powerful when working in partnership with my three horses, affectionately, known as the The Boys. However, I also work online or remotely, if necessary. We work to empower our clients to set and establish healthy boundaries enabling them to create happy and healthy relationships with themselves and others, in all areas of their lives; personally, professionally, emotionally, mentally, physically, socially, etc How can we help you to gain or regain control empowering you to recognise your self worth and live your values in every area of your life? How many times have you found yourself wondering; How did I get here.....again? Why do I keep having the same experiences? When am I going to learn? When are they going to see, hear and consider my needs? What is it about me that I struggle to say 'no' and put others needs before my own? We work from our base in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. Alternatively, online programmes are available.
Seeing the positive effect my horses and I, have on our clients. Working
I began working with my horses at the end of my teaching career. I was burnt out, beyond tired and in need of some help to get back on my feet and to decide what was next for me.
I found horses by accident. I had no experience with horses but once I came into contact with them, I felt a warmth, love and tenderness that I needed. I haven't looked back since.
The biggest inspiration though was discovering horses as experts in setting boundaries. I knew about them. As a teacher, I set boundaries all the time, or at least, I thought I did.
My lessons began when I began working with horses and really discovering how powerful boundaries actually are and the impact they have on our day to day lives.
I have come to believe that learning and consciously integrating boundaries into our lives is crucial for who we want to be, how we want to develop and be treated by others.
I work specifically around boundaries; either with my horses or independently. I complete a consultation with every client and if I feel I can help them, I will offer them the opportunity to work with us. Our work is very specific and aims to offer practical tools that clients can work with from the first session and develop, as our work together progresses.
Working via Teams or Zoom, boundaries work is best achieved either with or without the horses present.
I have developed a programme of online learning that means I can work with clients via Zoom or Teams.
When working with clients in person, space and social distancing are practiced as standard, and as one of the main principles of boundary setting.
