Release of New Horse Book
by Burwell, NE Author Sherry Jarvis
Sherry grew up in Burwell, NE. She inherited her Dad’s passion for riding horses. Sherry has been in love with horses since she was two years old when her Dad bought her first pony named Ginger. Horses have been an important part of her life as long as she can remember. Through competition in rodeos and horse shows from a young age horses taught her many life lessons. Both success and failure with horses motivated Sherry to dig deeper learning more about how horses think and why they do what they do so she could get better results with them. By learning from her mistakes Sherry has discovered many of the problems people have with horses are misunderstandings because of the difference between the way prey animals and predators think and act. The book “Win Your Horse’s Heart” (Be a Better Horseman) published by Wingspan Press, on-sale March 1, 2009) will not only entertain you but change the way you think about horses. The principles presented in the book about leadership, confidence, relationships, and communication can be transferred to benefit other areas of life even if you don’t own a horse.

WIN YOUR HORSE'S HEART (And Be a Better Horseman) is a must-read for those who love horses.
This is a "horse" book, but really it is even more than that. It is about building relationships with trust respect and love. It is about self-acceptance, making choices, problem solving, and allowing for compromise. This is an important book about self-discovery of the need for a makeover for the way we think about and interact with horses. There is a way which is better for the horse, because it is approached from the horse's point of view. This book tells stories of life lessons which horses can teach us, and how a good partnership improves our quality of life. But most of all it is about winning a horse's heart in an unselfish way.

There are only two kinds of people: Those who love horses and those who don't. This book is definitely for those who do love horses, whether you own one or not.

For ages the relationship between man and horse has been both positive and negative mainly because there was a need for horses as a work animal. This is truly an amazing time in horse history where horses are now kept more for their beauty and companionship than out of necessity. There are more horse owners today who have a horse for fun than those who make a living with them. Because of this we live in a time when a very few people can make a very big difference for horses everywhere. Sherry hopes to be one of those people who can make a difference by inspiring and motivating others.

Five years ago Sherry quit her school teaching job to follow her passion for teaching horses and people full time. Heart in Your Hand Horsemanship was born because she is dedicated to understanding how horses and humans tick. The business is driven by her vision to guide people and their equine friends into a true partnership where they are able to work and play in harmony together. Sherry wrote “Win Your Horse’s Heart” in hopes that by reading the book horse lovers everywhere will be united toward improving the quality of life for the horse by becoming even better horsemen. By taking a fresh perspective towards horsemanship where we begin to look at life from the view point of the horse when we are in his world we will earn his respect and trust. In return he will give us his heart and there isn’t anything he won’t do for us when this happens. We hope you will help us make a difference in the lives of horses and horse lovers by ordering a copy and passing the word about this book along to your friends and associates.
 
 
                
 


 

Book Reviews
Before you read one more "how-to" book, it's absolutely necessary that you read Win Your Horse's Heart because if your whole way of THINKING about the human/equine relationship doesn't change, all the how-to books in the world aren't going to work for you. And once your perspective changes, everything else will fall into place and you'll be amazed how "easy" your training becomes. This book and Tom Widdicombe's Be With Your Horse ought to be the bibles given with every horse purchase. Buffy: New Zealand
It made me laugh and cry. It was such a wonderful testament to the power of natural horsemanship. I was inspired and touch by it very much. Tammy
This book brought me to tears and then to joy. I have dog tagged the pages that I will reread. You have written this book well and my congratulations to you for doing such a good job. VERY difficult to put this one down! Michele

I have the last 15 pages to go before finishing your book, but I already know that it's one of the most important ones I've read. AND I'VE READ 'EM ALL!!!!! I wanted to congratulate you on your enormous, significant contribution to the wealth of equine training/behavioral literature out there. My own personal opinion is that the reason there "needs" to be so many different "how-to" books on empathetic horsemanship is that the most critical first phase to those books is either always missing, or certainly nowhere nearly as well written and cogently presented as you have done in your new book. That missing element is the entire change in THINKING and BEING that is absolutely necessary before all the very best intentioned techniques can have any hope of effectiveness, let alone success.
I'm about to order 10 more copies as (necessary) gifts. I thank and applaud you again,
Corey

I bought two of your books (one for me and one for my friend, Terry) and she was so excited when I gave it to her.  She sat down and read it in two days!  She is my friend that is a foster Mommy for two to three horses at a time from a local rescue in our area.  She works with them to re-build their trust in ppl and their self-esteem and most often she has to put weight on them – she is nourishing them inside and out.  She said she learned a lot reading your book!
Sherry, keep up your great work and inspiring others with your messages.
