Rupert opens with the story of his son Rowan's healing ceremony with Kuku Yalanji shamans in Australia's Daintree Rainforest, and the two trace the theme from there into what \"consent\" and so-called horse slapping actually look like through a horse's nervous system.\nFrom there the conversation moves through the deep history of horse worship, from the goddess Epona and Xenophon's writings to Roman cavalry rituals and Mongolian shamanism, and lands on a central idea both men keep circling back to: that intention itself changes the energy, or as Warwick puts it, the \"energetic signature,\" of any action, whether that's patting a horse, backing one up, or riding into battle.\nA wide-ranging, unhurried conversation that moves from hardware stores and rodeo bulls to henbane, King Arthur, and a closing reading from the Hadith.\nWhat You'll Learn in This Episode\n00:00:36 – Rupert opens the episode by introducing the theme of altered states of consciousness in horsemanship\n00:05:24 – Rupert recounts his son Rowan's healing ceremony with Kuku Yalanji shamans in the Daintree Rainforest\n00:11:03 – Warwick unpacks consent, \"horse slapping,\" and what it means to actually be present with a horse\n00:24:13 – Why Warwick loses all sense of time while running clinics, and what that says about altered states\n00:38:38 – A journey through the ancient history of horse worship, from Epona and Xenophon to Roman cavalry and Mongolian shamanism\n00:44:49 – What it might look like to bring ritual and reverence back into everyday training\n01:09:20 – Warwick on his real job as a teacher: \"busting\"...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/edefuo9BicUw7iv3tBYu0A0WPDz35rwksjCWzqzh4lQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQwOTg5LzE2ODIz/MzM0MzYtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
