ReasonRx Podcast Episode 30 (Part 1) Soul of a Horse Author Joe Camp Talks Horses and the Deep Lessons They Teach

In this episode, Joe Camp discusses detail and science of how he takes care of his horses. His passion leads him to research, reason, and be scientific in all aspects of a horse’s life — just as we should with our children and our students (and our dogs and out cats and our pets). 

Thinking about and spending time with horses gives us a detached way to learn to be passionate and scientific with an animal, a living thing, both friend and family. Then we can be as Phoebe Child, Head of the Montessori Trust in London, said of the Montessori teacher: “we must be prepared to wait patiently like a servant, to watch carefully like a scientist, and to understand through love and wonder like a saint.”

Joe discusses:
-how he and his wife Kathleen got into horses
-how he trains horses, and the successes this gives him beyond what many ever achieve
-how he feeds horses, and why — it’s science, not convention!
-why he has his horses barefoot, and the “conventional science” claim that sparked his research into horse shoes and best practices
-what he thinks about stalls, and why the nature of the horse dictates what Joe does with his horses
