She took a year to fully grieve her loss, shared the intimate details of their amazing journey in the book The Toughest One, and then bought a ranch in Washington and launched ReBoot Ranch Retreata place where others can reboot their health, reclaim their creativity and purpose, and reset their life with the cognitive and behavioral tools that sustained her and Reid through their difficult journey with the help of her horses.
Born horse-crazy and lucky to have been raised in the country, shes been surrounded by four-legged companions her entire life, many with special needs. Lauras always had a big heart for animals and an uncanny ability to nurture and heal, which she says she inherited from her grandmother. The small farm where she started her family seemed to attract what her husband called the blind, crippled, and crazy. They always had a unique collection of critters that needed help re-establishing their health.
She became interested in a more holistic approach to horse health and training while teaching her two daughters to ride. In 2000, she and an amazing group of kids called the Red Hot Riders 4-H Club introduced Natural Horsemanship at the Central Washington State Fair. The event attracted attention across the United States, following an article in the Trail Less Travelled Magazine. For ten years, they travelled and offered demonstrations to teach other kids how to really have fun with their horses. Her philosophy of teaching youth how to think like a horse empowers them in miraculous ways. When a child can influence the behavior of a thousand pound animal and create a relationship based on trust and communication where the horse would rather be with them than anywhere else, its a beautiful thing and it increases their safety and self-esteem in profound ways.
Laura is a visionary with a knack for creatively solving relationship problems and health issues. She is also an artist, published illustrator, and writer and has a fondness for painting cowboy boots, which she says is surprisingly very therapeutic.weniger sehen
