Brannaman was an adviser on the film of The Horse Whisperer and the moniker is often attached to him, but I\u2019d call him the Horse Empath. He sees himself through the animals\u2019 eyes and feels their childlike skittishness, their primal fear.<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0 &#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>If you can, go &#8211; see that movie; fold in this Einstein quote &#8211; and meditate on the word compassion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\n&#8220;A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe\u201a a part limited in time and space.<\/p>\n<p>He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest &#8211; a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.<\/p>\n<p>Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8212; Albert Einstein<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Feel the tectonic plates in your mental map shift.\u00a0 Don&#8217;t just improve; Evolve!<br \/>\nMove toward compassion.\u00a0 Soften your heart.<\/p>\n<p><em>Spread the word \u2026 NOT the icing!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Janice<br \/>\nwise * fun * utterly useful<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/my_videos?feature=mhum\">Janice Taylor\u2019s KICK in the TUSH Club videos<\/a>!<br \/>\nSubscribe and Receive \u2013 as they are HOT off the REEL!<\/em><br \/>\n____________________________________________<br \/>\nFor the best in wellness and weight loss wisdom, visit Janice:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\/\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a><br \/>\njoin the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kickinthetushclub.com\/\"><em>Kick in the Tush Club<\/em><\/a><br \/>\nVirtual Shoulder<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night, Peter and I went to the movies!!!\u00a0 Yippee!!!
