Veterans struggling with PTSD find hope and healing by working with horses
Fox News
Warrior Ranch Foundation visited "Fox and Friends Weekend" on Sunday, July 10, to explain how "horse interaction therapy" helps veterans and first responders dealing with PTSD.
"Think about it: We're stepping into their herd — so it’s about respect and trust." "They’ll listen to our energy. They can feel our heartbeat from five feet away." The idea is to stay present, focused and in the moment — with the help of a trained four-legged companion at your side. Deirdre Reilly is a senior editor, lifestyle, with Fox News Digital.
She was joined by U.S. Army Ranger veteran Paul Martinez, U.S. Coast Guard veteran Maddie Feaster and Warrior Ranch trainer Gina Lamb — and together they explained how this equine therapy organization helps veterans and first responders heal from PTSD.
