  • Physical strength: Riding horses can help improve core strength, balance, and coordination, and can also be a fun and engaging form of exercise.
 
  • Improved social connections: Participating in equine-assisted activities can help veterans connect with other people, build friendships, and develop a sense of community.
 
  • Sense of accomplishment: Learning to ride and care for a horse can be a challenging yet rewarding experience for veterans, allowing them to develop new skills and a sense of personal achievement.
 
  • Relaxation and stress reduction: Spending time with horses and in nature can help veterans reduce stress, improve mood, and increase overall well-being.
