As science advances, new ideas about our existence develop that challenge our beliefs. As 2026 begins, more and more credible scientists, with irrefutable credentials, are now willing to address ideas that, only a few years ago, would have been dismissed. Luckily, those of you who have been following me over the years will notice my hinting that there is something "out there" that connects us to horses (and each other). In my 2010 book, "The Ten Irrefutable Laws Of Horsemanship," I suggested in Law Nine that "Energy Is Everything." Now, 16 years later, science is finding the facts behind this law. This podcast discusses the findings of a Columbia Professor of Mitochondrial Psychobiology, Dr Martin Picard. This new field describes the transformation of energy within the mitochondria of cells, from food, water, and air into thoughts, emotions, behavior, action, and health. The findings align well with the thoughts of a Harvard Professor and psychiatrist, Dr Christopher Palmer, who hypothesizes that all brain diseases are a lack of energy within the brain. Can a lack of energy in some organs (the brain, the heart, the connective tissue, the skin, the hooves), due to the allocation of a set amount of total energy to gut inflammation and environmental stress in horses, be the root cause of disease, lameness, and behavioral issues?

Its information is free, and there is a membership side that allows horse owners to attend live meetings to ask questions and deepen their understanding of what they have learned on the site. Membership helps support this message and spread it to everyone worldwide who works with horses. The Equine Practice, Inc. website discusses how and why I perform equine dentistry without immobilization or the automatic use of drugs. I only accept new clients in Florida. Click here to make an appointment. The Horsemanship Dentistry School is a place for those interested in learning how to perform equine dentistry without drugs on 97% of horses. Please give a thumbs-up or a 5-star review and share these everywhere. I know horse owners worldwide listen, and the horses need every one of you in "Helping Horses Thrive In A Human World."
