🐴❤️ Did you know there are actual benefits to riding a horse backwards? I sure didn’t until I met Elsa Riding Peace Sensory Horseback Therapy !

What they’re doing is truly incredible. Not only is it a wonderful ministry, but it’s also changing lives through the healing power of horses. I personally experienced relief in my back pain and anxiety after trying it, and it was amazing to see the difference.

Equine-assisted therapy has been shown to help individuals facing challenges such as autism, anxiety, depression, stroke recovery, sensory processing difficulties, and so much more. The movement of the horse provides unique physical, emotional, and neurological benefits and the science behind it is fascinating!

Seeing this program in action was such a blessing. Horses truly have a special way of helping us heal, grow, and find peace. ❤️🐴

Again, If you haven’t already, go check out and follow their page! They’re doing important work and making a real difference in the lives of so many people. 🙌🏽

Nice day for the mommas and babies to enjoy the sun! South Dakota sure is beautiful! ❤️

Yesterday we had the opportunity to visit another incredible equine therapy program here in Aberdeen, South Dakota called Riding Peace Sensory Horseback Therapy! Big thanks to my awesome sister Savannah for winning a free session and giving it to me!! It was just a God set up! For all of us!❤️🐴 I went in with a very painful lower back and left with NO PAIN AT ALL! WILD!! 😭🙌🏽 Not to mention the horse she chose for me looked and acted a lot like Frenzy, my main girl at home! Haha! 🥰

It is always encouraging to connect with others who share the same heart for helping people through the healing power of horses and also Christ centered. Seeing the work these ladies are doing was truly inspiring. They are making a real difference in the lives of individuals and families by providing a unique therapeutic experience that helps people facing a variety of challenges.

As horse people, we know there is something special about the connection between a horse and a human. Horses have a way of bringing peace, confidence, healing, and hope that words often cannot.

We are so thankful for organizations like Riding Peace that are using their gifts, knowledge, and horses to serve others. South Dakota is blessed to have programs like this available to those in need.

Please take a moment to go follow their page, show them some love, and learn more about the amazing work they are doing! Supporting one another helps strengthen our entire horse community and allows more people to experience the life-changing impact horses can have. ❤️

Thank you, Riding Peace, for welcoming us and for the important work you do every day. We are cheering you on and by your side along this journey!! Love love love what you all are doing! 🙌🐴 Now, go find their page and give them a follow, it helps more than you know!

This is such a hard post to make, especially being all the way in South Dakota.
Today we had to say goodbye to our sweet Zippy🤎🐾
Zippy was short for Zipporah meaning freedom and grace. If you knew Zippy, you knew she was full of sass. She was tiny, but she never got the memo. She truly believed she was the biggest, toughest thing around. Surrounded by horses, she walked around like she owned the place and never seemed to realize she was so little.
She had a stubborn streak a mile long, plenty of opinions, and a personality that could fill the whole barn. But underneath all that sass was so much love. She was always nearby, always watching over things, and always ready for attention on her terms.
The ranch is going to feel so different without her little legs running around and her big personality keeping everyone in line.
We're thankful for the time we got with her and every memory she gave us, just wish that it could’ve been a lot longer. God knew exactly what He was doing when He brought Zippy into our lives. She may have been small, but the space she leaves behind is anything but.
Run free, sweet girl. Thank you for loving us so well. You'll always be part of Dark Horse Rescue Ranch🤎
Please keep us in your prayers because we all loved Zippy so much! Jason sent the photo of the clouds today and said “oh my goodness it looks just like Zippy🥺 We won’t know what to do without her running around😢

❤️ PRAISE REPORT FOR FRENZY GIRL ❤️✨

Yesterday, Frenzy had her checkup and got the news we’ve been praying for… she is CLEARED to go back to work in 2 weeks!! 🙌🏽🎉

Thank you all so much for the prayers, encouragement, and support throughout this journey. This horse has been through more than most will ever know. There were moments of uncertainty, setbacks, and a lot of hard days, but she never quit. Her grit, determination, and heart have amazed me every step of the way. 🥹❤️

Frenzy’s story is a reminder that healing takes time, perseverance matters, and God’s timing is perfect. Through every challenge, we have seen His hand at work and His faithfulness over and over again.

I truly believe this is just the beginning of a beautiful comeback story. 👀🔥

Be on the lookout for Frenzy Girl’s return because she’s about to show everyone exactly what she’s made of. ❤️🐴

Praise God for His healing, His mercy, and for carrying us through this season. 🙏🏽✨

Just good horses, good people, and a reminder that life doesn’t have to be complicated. ✌🏽 ...
