Finding the Balance in Equine-Assisted Work
A webinar with Bettina Shultz-Jobe
Sometimes we teach. Sometimes we guide. Sometimes we simply witness.
In these spaces, the real work emerges. These are the unspoken lessons about trust, pacing, and connection that no step-by-step instructions can fully capture.
This conversation is an exploration of one of the most common questions we receive: How much do I direct my clients, and how much do I let them find their own way?
In this webinar, Bettina will share how the principles of connection—like releasing pressure, adjusting energy, and attuning to presence—can be both taught and discovered. She’ll explore the transformative power of both approaches, from moments when explicit teaching unlocks healing to times when stepping back allows clients to uncover profound relational truths on their own.
Through stories of clients navigating trust, grief, and self-awareness with the help of horses, Bettina will highlight the nuanced art of pacing in sessions, and how the smallest shifts in our energy and presence can change everything.
In equine-assisted work, pacing is everything. This free webinar with Bettina Shultz-Jobe explores how to sense when to teach, when to guide, and when to let go, because sometimes our greatest strength lies in knowing when to be the quiet witness and when to be the guiding hand.
Join Bettina for this rich discussion and discover how teaching less while guiding and allowing more can deepen both your facilitation and your clients’ healing journeys.

Ten Things You Need to Know When Choosing an EAS Certification
Not all certifications are the same!
The field of Equine Assisted Therapy, Psychotherapy, and Learning is growing rapidly. New trainings and certifications are springing up all over – and each is a little different.
When seeking your own training path there are some important considerations to be mindful of so that you get exactly what you need to do this work well – with integrity. The founders of Natural Lifemanship have been offering EAS for over 3 decades, training and education for over 10 years, and in 2015 they launched a certification process…in all these years, Natural Lifemanship has learned A LOT about this field.
Doing quality EAS work is a complex and subtle process that is at its best when science, ethics, and experience all come together. Join us for a 1-hour webinar where NL founders, Bettina Shultz-Jobe and Tim Jobe, will let you in on the most important things to consider when choosing a training and certification process.
There’s more to it than you think!
