Meet Deidre McGrath

I have over 50 years experience with the horse beginning as a 2 year old walking into a herd of heavy horses and being surrounded by them my curiosity and awe of them was ignited. I have worked in competition from showjumping to racehorses and rehab internationally but something was always missing; that connection and respect for a sentient being I felt had a knowing sense of themselves that wanted to be honoured and heard. Since I have trained as an Attunement Energy Worker and Life Coach. Worked and trained with Rupert Issacason in the Horse Boy Method and studied with Warwick Schiller and Tellington TTouch technique. For me relationship and consent is paramount. I have rescued 38 horses from the kill pen and rehomed them. I now have a herd of 9 horses. Over ten years I have studied and practised in Buddhist meditation which has helped me find present moment awareness and stillness but of course the horse are masters in this and my mentors. I have studied with Nikki Cutlar conscious communication with the horse, and Mary Berkery an Equine Assisted Learning coach and author of Saved by the Horse. For me it is a life journey to find joy and stillness in our life and living without judgement or expectation and the horse facilitates this beyond thinking and words. I have deep respect for the sacred space they have held for me and others and want to share this with others so they may find their empowerment and truth.
