The Healing Angle: Nature's Gateway to the Healing Field (2014)
The Healing Field takes the artful science of NHC beyond mere trim mechanics. No doubt without it, there would be no more order in the most “perfectly” shaped hoof in wild horse country than the most compromised domesticated hoof suffering chronic Supercoriaitis. The Healing Field connects all things, past, present, and future, in the best of ways and in the worst imaginable. It demonstrates unequivocally the Law of Conservation of Mass and Energy and its relationship to “cause and effect” in life as a consequence of what we do. This book provides the historical backdrop for the “Healing Angle” derived from the wild horse model. But it also takes the reader into the strange and mysterious Healing Field where mediation of mass and energy affects everything we do and life as we know it.

Training Manual (2017)
This is the “official” training manual of the ISNHCP Natural Trim Training Program. The manual is “keyed” to the training steps delineated on the ISNHCP website (www.ISNHCP.net). I wrote this extensive “study guide” to help students in their studies of our many learning materials, which otherwise is a very daunting task. I introduce students to each new area of study, which include my most recent interpretations of and insights into the complexities of the natural trim, along with many “quizzes” and a quiz “answer key” so they can check their understanding of the material as they move forward. The main purpose is to provide students with a solid academic foundation of the natural trim which they will need if they are to advance the highest levels of achievement as practitioners in the field.
