  “Long Reining is so much fun that it is easy to get 
  hooked on it. It trains the rider's eyes and tact by 
  adding a visual impression to the sense of touch and vice versa.” 
  Dr. Thomas Ritter
  
  It is no wonder that more and more riders are discovering the old tradition of 
  long reining for themselves. It helps the horse to improve his balance and 
  ability to collect without the weight of the rider, and it lends itself well to 
  training difficult movements in a horse friendly manner. Dr. Thomas Ritter 
  explains the correct aids from the beginning through Haute École in practical terms. Thanks to the discussion of frequent mistakes and their corrections, long reining novices and experienced trainers alike can find much new information here. The author's passion and enthusiasm for long reining are evident throughout. Many helpful tips invite you to experiment!

  How Animals Grieve

  “A touching and provocative exploration of the latest research on animal minds and animal emotions” from the renowned anthropologist and author (The Washington Post). 
   
  Scientists have long cautioned against anthropomorphizing animals, arguing that it limits our ability to truly comprehend the lives of other creatures. Recently, however, things have begun to shift in the other direction, and anthropologist Barbara J. King is at the forefront of that movement, arguing strenuously that we can—and should—attend to animal emotions.  
   
  With How Animals Grieve, she draws our attention to the specific case of grief, and relates story after story—from fieldsites, farms, homes, and more—of animals mourning lost companions, mates, or friends. King tells of elephants surrounding their matriarch as she weakens and dies, and, in the following days, attending to her corpse as if holding a vigil. A housecat loses her sister, from whom she’s never before been parted, and spends weeks pacing the apartment, wailing plaintively. A baboon loses her daughter to a predator and sinks into grief. In each case, King uses her anthropological training to interpret and try to explain what we see—to help us understand this animal grief properly, as something neither the same as nor wholly different from the human experience of loss.  
   
  The resulting book is both daring and down-to-earth, strikingly ambitious even as it’s careful to acknowledge the limits of our understanding. Through the moving stories she chronicles and analyzes so beautifully, King brings us closer to the animals with whom we share a planet, and helps us see our own experiences, attachments, and emotions as part of a larger web of life, death, love, and loss.

  This breakthrough programme is for those who are burdened by traumatic memories and experiences and are excited to learn that there are self help tools to free themselves, once and for all.Have you not been right since that terrible experience – of panic, bereavement, abuse, bullying, humiliation, disappointment or shock?  If so, you need to detraumatise that memory and these audio tools will allow you to that.These trauma memories maybe ever present or periodically present and they cannot seem to be cleared. Trauma Release will give you the tools you need to free yourself from the emotion of these memories – with diagnostic tools and proven trance methods.There are seven audios in the Trauma Release programme:TR1 Preparing (23 mins)TR1 is the essential first step as you learn what is needed and why. Only move on from TR1 when you are ready. And part of this is to know where next to go amongst the rest of the TR audios.TR2 Straightforward (25 min)For most of you TR2 is the next stop especially after listening to TR1 – as this is where to go to test the process, perhaps with a less powerful memory.TR3 Extended (22 mins)TR3 is if you are not sure that there is a particular memory, but rather an extended period of bad memories and experiences which are joined up in some way.TR4 Confused (22 mins)TR4 is for memories where what is real cannot be separated from what might have been.TR5 Depression (25 mins)TR5 focuses on the trauma memories of past depressions.TR6 Future (22 mins)TR6 is designed to clear fearful projections that have the same power as a trauma.TR7 Hidden (6 mins)TR7 explains what next to do if you believe something is still there but you have not been able to identify and clear it.If the Trauma Release audios “work” then you will be aware very quickly that they have – by feeling more relaxed and lighter.

  From Swamp to Wetland - The...

  This book chronicles the creation of Everglades National Park, the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. Prior to the park's creation, the Everglades was seen as a reviled and useless swamp, unfit for typical recreational or development projects.Park advocates drew on new ideas concerning the value of biota and ecology, the importance of wilderness, and the need to protect habitats, marine ecosystems, and plant life to redefine the Everglades. Using these ideas, the Everglades began to be recognized as an ecologically valuable and fragile wetland—and thus a region in need of protective status.While these new ideas foreshadowed the later emergence of modern environmentalism, tourism and the economic desires of Florida's business and political elites also impacted the park's future. These groups saw the Everglades' unique biology and ecology as a foundation on which to build a tourism empire.Yet, even after the park's creation, conservative landowners successfully fought to limit the park and saw it as a threat to their own economic freedoms. The battle to save the swamp's biodiversity continues, and Everglades Park stands at the center of ongoing restoration efforts.
