Holy As Thou: Bittersweet Tales About Remembering to Love; Interview With Constance Funk
November 10th, 2009 | Published in Promote With Patty
Listen in to Patty’s conversation with horsewoman Constance Funk, author, artist and seminar leader of equine-guided development workshops.
Her books, Beauty From Brokenness: Bits and Pieces of My Journey into Wholeness and Holy as Thou: Bittersweet Tales About Remembering to Love are path markers on her life’s trail. 
Her amazing connection with horses began at 47 years of age—and through a synchronicity of events and circumstances, she was brought together with Chasta, one incredible teacher wearing the body of a horse. Her life’s path as a teacher and healer via the very sentient nature of horses continues to unfold in ways that serve the human and horse worlds—and their collective consciousness.
Endorsements from the Book: It can’t be said much better than this!
“A beautiful collection of stories told with warmth and generosity. Connie’s ability to deal with setbacks and her unstinting search for truth and happiness is a lesson to us all. The willingness to admit her weaknesses and failures and to use these as a springboard for personal growth should be particularly instructive to male readers.
The strength, peace and connection that women derive from their relationship with horses is well documented and Connie provides ample evidence here too. My suspicion and indeed my personal experience is that men can derive just as much benefit from their equine partners if they will only allow themselves. When this happens on a large scale,
we could well witness the sea change in human consciousness that so many seek. Thank you, Connie, for showing the way.”
