The Tao of Equus: A Woman's Journey of Healing and Transformation through the Way of the Horse is a deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration of the extraordinary relationship between horses and humans.

In this revised and updated edition of her influential classic, Linda Kohanov combines compelling personal stories with insights from equine behaviour, psychology, neuroscience, mythology, and spiritual traditions to explore the transformative potential of our connection with horses.

Originally published in 2001, The Tao of Equus challenged conventional ideas about horses, their intelligence, emotional sensitivity, and their role in human lives. More than two decades later, Kohanov revisits these themes, incorporating developments in scientific research and a deeper understanding of the horse-human relationship.

Through her experiences with horses, particularly her mare Rasa, Kohanov describes a journey that gradually changes her understanding of communication, intuition, vulnerability, and personal growth.

Inside this book, readers will explore:

• The emotional intelligence and sensitivity of horses

• The influence of horses on human self-awareness and personal development

• Connections between equine behaviour, neuroscience, and psychology

• The role of intuition, authenticity, and nonverbal communication

• Historical, cultural, and mythological perspectives on horses

• The particular significance of the horse-human bond for women

• The potential of equine-assisted learning and therapeutic relationships

Rather than presenting a conventional horse-training method, Kohanov invites readers to reconsider the way they perceive horses and the lessons that can emerge from genuine relationships with them.

The revised edition offers 400 pages of personal reflection, scientific perspectives, and spiritual exploration, making it particularly appealing to readers interested in equine-assisted learning, emotional intelligence, holistic horsemanship, and personal transformation.

A compelling book for anyone who believes that horses have much more to teach us than simply how to ride.
