Equi-Soul the Essence of Muscle Testing

Welcome to Equi-Soul: A Holistic Path to Horse Wellness


Equi-Soul Intuition is a unique approach to equine wellness. It combines the principles of kinesiology testing, magnetic therapy, muscle testing, divine guidance, and intuition to create a deeper connection with your horse’s unique needs. Designed to support horses, especially those in rehabilitation, Equi-Soul helps identify areas of imbalance, tension, or energy blocks, all while honoring the natural intelligence of the horse's body. Equi- Soul allows the horse's energy and innate wisdom to guide the process. By tuning into subtle cues and energies of each horse, we create a harmonious connection that fosters trust, and balance. it unlocks the true essence of the horse. Promoting both physical and emotional healing for a truly transformative experience.


The Foundation of Equi-Soul

  • Kinesiology and Muscle Testing These methods involve using gentle testing to assess how the horse’s body responds to specific stimuli. By observing subtle shifts in muscle response, we gain clues about areas where the body may be struggling to maintain balance or function optimally. Think of it as listening to the body’s whispers before they become shouts.

  • Holistic Awareness and Homeostasis At the heart of Equi-Soul is a focus on holistic awareness—understanding the horse as a whole being, including its physical, emotional, and energetic states. Our goal is to support homeostasis, the body’s natural ability to maintain internal balance and stability, which is key to overall health and recovery.

  • Divine Guidance and Intuition Equi-Soul incorporates intuitive insights and a connection to universal energy, offering an added layer of depth to the process. This divine partnership helps us uncover what the horse’s body, mind, and spirit are asking for in their journey toward healing.


What Are We Looking For?

Equi-Soul seeks to identify areas in the body where energy is disrupted, tension is held, or healing is needed. Through this process, we create a “body map” tailored to your horse—an energetic and visual guide to focus care and attention without making medical diagnoses. This map helps us understand where the horse might benefit from targeted therapies, adjustments in their environment, or energetic support to restore harmony.


How Does Equi-Soul Help?

By combining these holistic techniques, Equi-Soul provides:


  • Insights into areas of imbalance or stress.

  • A non-invasive, gentle way to guide rehabilitation and wellness plans.

  • Support for the horse’s natural healing processes by encouraging balance and homeostasis.

  • A personalized approach that complements veterinary care and other rehabilitation methods.


Equi-Soul is about listening to the wisdom of your horse’s body and fostering a state of harmony and vitality. Whether your horse is recovering, transitioning, or in need of extra care, Equi-Soul is here to support their path toward wholeness and well-being.


Relating Trapped Energy to Everyday Experiences

Imagine you’re dealing with a stressful situation at work or home. Over time, if that stress isn’t addressed, you might start to feel it physically—tight shoulders, a headache, or a general sense of fatigue. These physical sensations are your body’s way of holding onto that unresolved stress. The tension isn’t the root problem; it’s a result of the stress that’s “trapped” in your system.


Now, think about how releasing that stress—through a massage, deep breathing, or talking it out—helps you feel better. Your shoulders relax, your headache fades, and your energy feels lighter. The stress (trapped energy) was cleared, and your body was able to reset and restore its natural balance.


How This Relates to Your Horse

For a horse, trapped energy might stem from trauma, emotional stress, or even repetitive strain from their environment or work. It might not immediately show as limping or pain, but over time, you might notice subtle signs like stiffness, resistance, behavioral changes, or difficulty progressing in training.


Using the Equi-Soul process, we identify and release that trapped energy. It’s like giving the horse’s body a chance to breathe and let go, restoring its natural balance. This doesn’t mean we’re diagnosing pain or injury—it’s more about creating an environment where the horse can heal and move forward more freely.


For example: A horse recovering from an injury might hold onto residual tension even after the physical wound has healed. Releasing that trapped energy can help them regain confidence and fluidity in their movements.A horse with behavioral challenges might have unresolved emotional energy tied to a past trauma. Clearing this can make them more receptive to training and connection.


By addressing these underlying energy imbalances, we’re helping your horse not just recover but thrive.



Why Equi-Soul?

The name Equi-Soul reflects the program’s deep commitment to connecting with the inner workings of the horse—its body, mind, and spirit. This approach is about more than just surface-level care; it’s about uncovering and unwinding the conditions or traumas that may be blocking or hindering the horse’s natural progress.


Through intuitive and energetic techniques, Equi-Soul delves into the layers of tension, imbalance, or emotional residue that may be preventing your horse from thriving. By addressing these deeper issues, we aim to restore harmony and create a clear path toward healing and growth.


The soul of the horse carries its stories, challenges, and triumphs, and Equi-Soul is designed to honor and nurture this essence, helping your horse reclaim balance and vitality from the inside out.

   

How Does Tara Receive the Answers?

The Equi-Soul process relies on muscle testing and intuitive techniques to “ask” the horse’s body what it needs. Here’s how it works:


  • Muscle Testing Explained Muscle testing, also known as applied kinesiology, is a non-invasive method used to evaluate the body’s responses to specific questions or stimuli. The idea is that the body has its own intelligence and can reveal imbalances or stress through subtle changes in muscle tension.

  • Yes and No Responses The process begins with a series of simple “yes” or “no” questions. Using a gentle form of testing—often involving slight resistance in a muscle or energetic feedback—Tara interprets the horse’s responses.

    • A “yes” response may show as a strong or stable reaction.

    • A “no” response might appear as a weaker or less stable reaction.

      These signals serve as a way to communicate directly with the horse’s body and energy system, bypassing guesswork or assumptions.

  • Energetic Connection Tara establishes a connection with the horse’s energy field, allowing for a deeper understanding of its needs. This process often includes grounding herself, centering her focus, and listening intuitively to the subtle feedback the horse provides.

  • Creating a Map Through the answers received, Tara gathers insights about where to focus attention—whether it’s a physical area, an energetic block, or a specific emotional layer. This information is used to create a “body map” or guide that informs the next steps in the horse’s care.


Muscle testing is gentle, respectful, and always centered on the horse’s comfort and well-being. It’s not about diagnosing problems but about listening to the body’s innate wisdom to support healing, balance, and progress.

  

Acting as a Proxy: The Power of Energetic Entanglement

In the Equi-Soul process, Tara can act as a proxy for the horse through the concept of energetic entanglement. This principle suggests that all living beings are connected on an energetic level. By establishing a focused connection with the horse, Tara can temporarily align her energy field with the horse’s, allowing her to perform muscle testing on their behalf.


Through this energetic bond, Tara can gather the horse’s "yes" and "no" responses as if she were testing directly on the horse. This method is particularly helpful in situations where the horse may not be physically present, or when working with a horse that may not tolerate direct testing due to stress, injury, or other factors.


How This Differs from Animal Communication

While animal communication involves interpreting thoughts, feelings, or messages conveyed by the animal, energetic entanglement focuses on the body’s innate wisdom and responses. The information gathered is less about emotional or cognitive insights and more about identifying areas of imbalance, stress, or energetic blockages within the horse’s body.


  • Animal Communication: Centers on understanding the horse’s emotions, desires, or concerns, often through intuitive dialogue.

  • Energetic Entanglement: Focuses on the horse’s physical and energetic feedback, providing a tangible guide for where care and attention are needed.


This distinction allows Equi-Soul to approach each horse with a unique focus on their physical and energetic well-being, working alongside other modalities to support healing and balance.


 Using a Magnet to Remove Energy Blockages

In the Equi-Soul process, a magnet is gently passed along the horse’s governing meridian line three times as part of the release, reset, and restore cycle. The governing meridian is a central energy channel in the body, playing a key role in maintaining balance and flow within the horse’s energetic system.


Why a Magnet?

Magnets have a unique ability to influence energy fields, helping to shift and realign imbalances. When used in this process, the magnet works as a tool to:


  1. Release: The magnet helps draw out trapped or stagnant energy from the body, encouraging the release of blockages that may be hindering the horse’s healing or progress.

  2. Reset: As the magnet moves along the governing meridian, it supports the body in recalibrating its energetic balance. This step helps “clear the slate,” allowing the horse’s natural systems to function more effectively.

  3. Restore: Finally, the process helps restore harmony and the free flow of energy, supporting the horse’s ability to heal, recover, and maintain homeostasis.


The Process


  • The horse’s governing meridian line, which runs along the midline of the body, is gently traced using a magnet.

  • This is done three times, with the intention of clearing old energy, resetting balance, and restoring vitality.

  • The process is calming, non-invasive, and works in harmony with the horse’s natural energetic rhythms.


This method complements the other aspects of Equi-Soul by providing a tangible way to support the horse’s energy system, fostering balance and well-being from within.


Is the Energy Forgotten Once Removed?

When energy blockages are removed using the magnet in the Equi-Soul process, the release allows the body to reset and restore its natural balance. However, whether the energy is gone forever depends on a few factors:


  1. Permanent Release:

    • If the underlying cause of the blockage has been addressed and the horse’s environment and overall care support their balance, the energy is unlikely to return.

    • The horse may experience lasting relief and greater harmony in its system.

  2. Possible Recurrence:

    • If the horse encounters similar stressors, traumas, or imbalances in its environment or routine, the energy could return.

    • This is because the body may revert to familiar patterns of holding tension or energy in certain areas.


How Do I Know All Energies Have Been Released?

During an Equi-Soul session, determining whether all energies have been released involves several key observations and techniques:


  1. Muscle Testing Feedback

    • Muscle testing provides real-time feedback from the horse’s body. Once the energy blockage has been fully released, the testing will no longer indicate a need for further clearing in that area.

    • A consistent “neutral” response suggests that the body has reached a balanced state for that session.

  2. Behavioral and Physical Shifts

    • Horses often show visible signs of release, such as licking and chewing, yawning, sighing, or lowering their head. These are physical cues that energy has shifted and the body is relaxing.

    • Improvements in posture, movement, or demeanor can also indicate that the release was effective.

  3. Energetic Feel

    • For those attuned to energy work, the affected area may feel lighter or clearer, with no lingering sense of tension or stagnation.

    • The overall energy of the horse may feel more balanced and harmonious.

  4. Intuitive Guidance

    • Using intuition, you may sense when the session feels complete and the horse’s energy system is in a state of equilibrium for that moment.


It’s a Journey, Not a One-Time Fix

Keep in mind that some blockages may release fully in one session, while others may take time or require additional work. Energy imbalances can also reoccur if the underlying causes (stress, trauma, environment, etc.) are not addressed. Regular sessions and holistic care help ensure that the horse maintains balance and continues to progress.



Maintaining Balance After the Release

To prevent the energy from returning, it’s important to address the root causes of the blockage. This might include:


  • Adjusting the horse’s care routine or environment.

  • Supporting their emotional well-being and physical health.

  • Continuing regular energy work or Equi-Soul sessions as needed.


The goal is to provide ongoing support for the horse to maintain a state of homeostasis, where its natural healing processes can thrive.

 

Trapped Energy vs. Symptom or Pain Response

  1. Trapped Energy

    • A trapped energy is an unresolved energetic or emotional imbalance stored in the horse’s body.

    • It may not always manifest as physical pain or symptoms but can disrupt the natural flow of energy and lead to tension, stiffness, or behavioral changes over time.

    • The release of trapped energy is an energetic process that helps restore harmony and balance, addressing underlying imbalances that may not yet have developed into physical issues.

  2. Symptom or Pain Response

    • A symptom or pain response is the body’s way of signaling a specific problem, such as an injury, illness, or physical discomfort.

    • Symptoms are often tied to structural or physiological issues, such as inflammation, infection, or mechanical strain, and require medical evaluation and treatment.


Key Differences

  • Nature:

    • Trapped energy is part of the body’s energetic and emotional layers.

    • Symptoms and pain responses are part of the physical and physiological layers.

  • Manifestation:

    • Trapped energy may present as subtle imbalances, tension, or behavioral shifts.

    • Symptoms and pain responses are typically more noticeable and tangible, such as swelling, limping, or a specific area of tenderness.

  • Treatment:

    • Trapped energy is addressed through techniques like muscle testing, magnets, and energetic clearing, as in the Equi-Soul process.

    • Symptoms or pain responses require diagnosis and treatment by a veterinarian or other medical professional.


Working Together

Trapped energy and physical symptoms are interconnected; unresolved energy imbalances may contribute to physical discomfort over time. However, releasing trapped energy through methods like Equi-Soul is not intended to diagnose or treat physical symptoms directly but to support the horse’s overall well-being and complement medical care.
