I was not aware of these reviews until my sister, upset at hearing about the difficulties I was having with OHL, looked online to see if anyone had reviewed the business. She also found sad exchanges on Reddit. Google OHL & Reddit to find.As for the reviewers with their blissed-out experiences, I am envious. It is what I too had sincerely hoped to experience. It is remarkable & sad that so many people have been hurt & left empty handed after trusting Anna, her methods & energy work. I don’t think any of us ever dreamed we would be writing such reviews. GoodAnna is a talented horsewoman, you can work with her online or in person at the farm, Stal Witte, in Schijndel, Netherlands. Even if her methods do not consistently work in practical application the theories and techniques are compelling. ReviewI worked with One Horse Life for 6 months. My experience started with what seemed like a lot of love, guidance & support. Then sadly, it changed. Unfortunately, my main experience with One Horse Life is of over promising and under delivering. This includes a lack of reliable and consistent support & guidance as well as the promises & limitations of the method itself. The method, as wonderful as it may seem & as amazing as it is made to look on social media, does not work as reliably as OHL would like you to believe. They claim that their methods create “permanent” changes in your horse. This is simply not true. I had wonderful moments while practicing the method but experienced many situations in which the method failed or the change that was supposed to be permanent was not.The method is based on Anna and Pawel’s personal ideas of spirituality & “reality”. They assume guru status & teach with a guru mentality. The OHL Pros are set up to give seminars to hook you into a MLM scheme where the more you pay & sign up for the more access you will have to deeper “inner circle” knowledge. They talk a lot about physics, some of which aptly applies to the biomechanics of the horse, but ultimately the method is a type of new-age mysticism based on who you are as a person. It is based on “purity” & your ability to control yourself in your environment to an unhealthy degree. You are explicitly not allowed to change or adapt the methods or techniques, even if they are not working for you. Anna will tell you herself that her technique is not intuitive. This is a huge problem. If you can’t listen to your own intuition, then you must constantly defer to her. Emotionally this is dangerous as ultimately it leads you farther and farther from yourself and your truth and lived experience. You are led to a truth that you will in essence attempt to make your own in order to perform the methods and get results. Anna will tell you to trust her and that she will be with you every step of the way, but that was not my experience. Things did not come together, the methods did not work & because they were not working created an unhealthy dependency on Anna’s constant support & guidance. When my difficulties with the method did not resolve Anna & Pawel began outright emotionally manipulating. I could no longer justify continuing. When they couldn’t tell me how to progress, they just made me the problem. I finally realized I could not pay, practice, or “relax” enough to get the results their methods promised. I simply could not experience "reality" as they would have it.In addition, the disorganization & sloppy professionalism I experienced working with Anna was inexcusable & massively irresponsible. OHL programs are VERY expensive & yet for the thousands of euros you pay, corners are cut, emails ignored, questions left unanswered, promises left unfulfilled & calls are blown off or rescheduled at whim. She put both myself and my horse in dangerous situations all while promising that it would all come together, just trust her & the methods. Sadly, when I needed her help the most was exactly when she would stop responding to my messages for days and use flimsy excuses for her absence.So, buyers beware. I wasted a massive amount of money & time with OHL. Yes, I learned some valuable things, but the price, emotionally, spiritually and financially was very high. I would advise not getting involved at all, but if you do, do not enter into any informal agreements, get it all in writing, or sign a contract. Otherwise, it is highly likely that you will not get what you think you are paying for. After reading the other reviews I am considering contacting the Dutch lawyer, Stephan Wensing at European Horse Lawyers, to look into OHL. Please know that if your welfare is compromised at the expense of OHL ambitions, they will make it clear that it is your problem, not theirs. Take care of yourselves, trust yourselves, seek support from outside sources, and if something feels wrong, or murky or off—it is.

OneHorseLife represents something that is very important for me; a simple message that was given to me one day. It came from the outside of my awareness, and I felt it immediately on many levels. The firs and most basic level of this message is a ve...
