The Inner Herd Map

The Inner Herd Map


A gentle guide to deepening your connection with your horse—through nervous system awareness, energy attunement, breath, and quiet presence.

 

What Is the Inner Herd Map?

The Inner Herd Map is a soft, sensory-informed framework for understanding and deepening the horse–human relationship.


It honours the subtle conversations between your nervous system, your energy, your emotions—and your horse’s.

Born from a neurodivergent perspective and a life shaped by the quiet wisdom of horses, this map supports those who want to connect more deeply, more consciously, and more gently—with their horses and themselves.

Whether you ride or not, whether your horse is young or retired, this is for those who sense there is something deeper waiting to be felt.

 

What It Helps You Explore:

Your Breath & Presence – how your body speaks before words

Your Nervous System – recognising stress, freeze, or over-alertness and learning to soften

Your Energy System – understanding what you radiate and receive

Emotional Awareness – becoming curious and compassionate toward your own reactions and patterns

Equine Feedback – listening for your horse’s subtle signals and mirror-like responses

Co-Regulation & Grounding – creating safety and harmony together

Quiet Connection – the power of being-with rather than doing-to

Who It’s For:

Sensitive horse owners who want a more intuitive, body-aware relationship

Neurodivergent or highly empathic horse owners who crave gentleness and understanding

Horse guardians who no longer ride but still wish to feel close to their horses

Newer horse owners feeling overwhelmed by traditional methods

Anyone curious about energy, healing, and connection through stillness

What You Might Discover:

A deeper sense of trust and safety between you and your horse

Greater emotional insight and body awareness

Healing for old patterns of disconnection or fear

A more intuitive, heartfelt way to be in partnership—with your horse and your self

This isn’t training. This is attunement.

You don’t need to be “good” at energy or breathwork. You just need to be willing to notice.
To soften. To listen. To map what’s within—and meet your horse in that quiet place.

“Since working with Chonti, I’ve become more aware of my reactions and how they affect my horse. It’s a work in progress, but now I can pause, reflect, and reconnect. Our bond feels deeper already.”
— SE, Horsemanship Trainer

“Through our online interactions, I quickly felt a strong kinship with Chonti. Her presence is grounded, compassionate, and wise. I eventually reached out to her directly for guidance, and I’m so glad I did. She generously shared her knowledge, offering instruction and insight into her unique Reiki methods with horses. Her approach is gentle yet powerful, and it’s clear she holds a deep understanding of both energy work and equine sensitivity. What’s meant the most to me is the trust and support she’s offered. She’s become someone I deeply respect and turn to when I’m working with horses who’ve experienced profound trauma. Her perspective and energy have brought clarity and healing in ways I can’t fully put into words.” – Suellen Mize, based in the USA.
