Today we're reflecting on the profound theme of humanity and, 'Friendship Between Species.' As we navigate through times of loss, such as the passing of a beloved animal friend, we find solace in the enduring bonds we share with animals.
Research by the Human Animal Bond Research Institute (HABRI) focuses on the significant relationships between humans and animals. These bonds provide emotional support and improve mental health, especially in challenging times (eg Covid puppies).
Interspecies friendships can bring comfort and joy, offering emotional companionship that sometimes transcends human relationships. Animals can alleviate feelings of sadness and provide a sense of purpose and love.
The grieving process following the loss of a beloved animal friend, like a cherished horse is a long one, as animals give love and devotion in its purest form.
This episode is dedicated to Hamasa, a beautiful Arabian horse, my favourite on Instagram.
Thank you for tuning in.
Love Always,
