COMMUNITY NOTE
Dear Readers, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and are enjoying the New Year. Here at Eagle Magazine we’ve had our hands full picking out the best and the brightest stories to bring to you, but we think we’ve managed to do a pretty good job to help ring in 2016. As Eagle continues to grow each year, I’m constantly amazed at the strength and enduring vibrancy of our ever-changing community. This issue we’ve spotlighted a number of community members and businesses who are striving to make Eagle better, one small action at a time. Inside we’ve covered everything from equine therapy—an exciting an often overlooked treatment for those struggling with conventional mental health therapies—to a fantastic story on some interesting deliveries Smoky Mountain Pizza made recently with the help of Bossie the cow—to remind residents of our
area’s wonderful and storied agricultural history. There’s so much inside this issue, and I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed reading each and every piece. It’s an eclectic mix, but it fits our community well. As the winter continues ever onward, take a break from the skiing and cozy up next to the fire with this magazine—you won’t regret it. There’s a lot that makes Eagle great, and I could go on for pages and pages about it, but instead I’ll leave you to uncover rest as you go through your daily lives—and of course through reading this magazine. Thanks for continuing to give us stories to tell, as well as keeping Eagle one of the best places to live— not just in Idaho, but across the country. Happy New Year! Kirk Long—Editor
DID YOU KNOW?
Eagle’s meatpacking plant, Boise Valley Packing Company, opened in 1913 and was expanded several times over the years. The facility was located on the North Channel of the Boise River, just west of Eagle Road. It processed both hogs and cattle and was sold under the marketing name “Eagle Brand”. Boise Valley Packing hit its peak of production in the 1940’s, and became Eagle’s largest employer and one of the most recognizable landmarks for citizens. The plant ran for more than 70 years, but unfortunately, the downturn of the mom-andpop grocery stores in the area led to its closure in 1989. -Alana Dunn, Museum Coordinator, Eagle Historical Museum

TALKING POINTS
JOHN R. CARPENTER PIONEER, EAGLE'S FOUNDER, FAMOUS STAGE DRIVER By Mayor Jim Reynolds John Robert was born near Albany, NY on March 26th of 1846 to John Carpenter and the former Mary Mallema, an English lady. They were likely farmers. Tension was increasing between Northern and Southern interests that would lead to the Civil War, and editorials were already urging, "Go west young man, and grow up with the country." The decision was made. Fortunes were being made in the gold fields, and father and son soon traded their horses for oxen and joined a wagon train crossing the Great Plains. Young John R. was just 13. Mrs. Carpenter opted to travel to San Francisco by sailing vessel around the Cape of Good Hope, a treacherous journey in itself. Traveling at night, the party avoided the hostile natives and managed to lose none of their party—luckier than many trains that preceded and would follow them. Hardships and adversity were daily companions. Raiding parties were common and stole much of their stock. One tribe even offered to trade buffalo robes for young John R. Fortunately, his father declined. By 1860, they were mining in Scott’s Valley and later Yreka, California. Mrs. Carpenter joined them traveling by pack train from San Francisco. The family tried ranching and farming, but the lure of riches took them to the gold of Auburn, Oregon. In 1862, they drove the first ox teams seen in those parts to Idaho City and the mines there. Life in the mining camps was hard living next to one of the many saloons. A “Spaniard”
killed two miners and found justice to be swift and final: he was dragged by the neck several hundred yards to the tree where they hung him without ceremony. Violence was rampant, and bodies in the street were not uncommon. John R. mastered driving teams and used his oxen to haul timber and shakes for the construction boom in Idaho City. He was paid the princely sum of $800 for a month’s work, the equivalent of almost $15,000 today. That fall however, they were robbed at gunpoint of $500 of it on a trip to Umatilla Landing for supplies. John saved $300 by hiding it in his underwear. During the fracas, John R. grabbed for one robber’s gun and was shot in the hand for his trouble. He nearly bled to death on the return trip to Idaho City. Despite losing much of the use of his right hand, he became a top stage driver reaching national acclaim.
through extremely hostile territory, often to the amazement of the recipient. John R. settled down and in 1891, at 45, proposed marriage to William Steirman’s daughter, Miss Mary. He bought 90 acres, selling 15 which became the City of Eagle, and donated the property for the Odd Fellows Home, now the Bodacious Pig. Mary and John raised 6 children: J.R., Mayme, Anna, Willy, Henry and Leona. John R. lost his wife, but survived until 1936. He was the kind of man I think of when I think of Idaho.

The family bought the “old Saxon Ranch” near Idaho City in 1865 where they ranched and farmed for the next 12 years. Selling the ranch in 1876, John—and presumably Mary—retired to Pennsylvania. John R. stayed on; hauling freight for one Mr. Mathews between Idaho City and Boise. He hauled the first prisoners for the “new” State Penitentiary near Boise, and drove a 22-passenger stage drawn by 6 teams of horses to Silver City from Boise. John R. built and stocked stage stops for John Hailey from Wood River to Mountain Home. During the Bannock Uprising of 1878, John R. was hired as an army scout. He had many an adventure delivering messages

But of all the holidays, this one might mean the most to your loved one. There are several ways to show your love. Text them your love throughout the day, leave a note on their car, ask them to dance when there is no music, wake them up with a kiss…and shop.

Gronowski is always looking to grow in her experience and become a better artist. Her most memorable and educational piece was a drawing she did in college. “It was a pencil charcoal combo of two men sitting outside on the porch of an older building,” said Gronowski. “It was a project that our teacher had assigned to us.”

“My dad taught me as a kid that every day you should give something away, and the easiest thing to give away is a smile,” Gronowski added. “Usually, you will get something back, and most of the time it’s a smile in return.”

The artistic spirit can arise at unexpected times from unanticipated places. This is precisely the case with Shannon Gronowski. Though she has now experienced what it is like to create art in many of its forms, her transition from part time to full time artist came as something of a surprise. After discovering her creative passions while attending college for a medical degree, she has embraced life as an artist and has shared her various pieces with clients and admirers in a variety of places.

“Consider me your life architect. I’ll help you design your dream life and unlock your destiny.”
KEY TO SUCCESS: by Pamela Kleibrink Thompson You never know when someone you meet can change your destiny. Eagle resident Michelle Harris met Cindy Ziglar Oates on a boat trip in Maui nearly 20 years ago. Harris was first introduced to the power of positive thinking by Cindy’s father Zig Ziglar during a Born to Win conference. “Zig had a huge impact on my life and I became a certified Zig Ziglar trainer. My favorite Zig quote is ‘You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want.’” Harris has dedicated her life to helping others. Years later, when Harris was facing her own life challenges she met a life coach on an airplane. That meeting profoundly altered the course of her life. The help she received during that impromptu coaching session made her realize she wanted to help people to feel in control of their lives–to move forward with clarity and a sense of purpose. “Before becoming a life coach,” says Harris, “ I helped people design and build their dream homes. Now I help people design and build their dream lives. As a life coach, I help people uncover what they value and who they want to be.” In 2013, Harris graduated from The Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). She helps 28

COMMUNITY changed my life. He had a scholarship for young disadvantaged students and that is how I was able to go to college.” Labrador’s first job was delivering newspapers. While doing his undergraduate work at Brigham Young University, in Utah, he worked as a shoe salesman and did all kinds of minimum-wage jobs. “One of my favorites was flipping burgers at Tommy’s Burger, in Provo, Utah,” he says with a smile, “they were homemade, we made them fresh daily from scratch.” After marrying Idahoan Rebecca Johnson, the couple moved to her home state, where Labrador worked in landscaping, making $6 an hour. “The best thing about doing the landscaping job is that enabled me to really concentrate on law school.” In 1995, Labrador earned his law degree from the University of Washington and established a successful law practice with offices in Nampa and Boise. When asked if it was hard to do what people in his district demanded versus what he personally believed was right, he said that he has always been transparent. “I tell my constituency what I’m going to do. Even when they disagree with me they know that I follow my conscience, the dictates of my heart, and I do what I said I would do. Some politicians make a lot of promises but when they get to Washington they get enamored with the magic of the place and allow themselves to be influenced by interest groups.” Reflecting on his future in politics, he added: “There are a lot of opportunities out there but I’m going to take things one step at the time. My next job is to do my job well and to the best of my abilities.”

In his third term as Representative for the First District in Capitol Hill, Congressman Raúl Labrador is a busy man. He recently co-wrote and co-sponsored a bipartisan bill intended to increase judges’ discretion and reduce mandatory minimum sentences for nonviolent offenders. Criminal issues have been part of the Congressman’s agenda since 2010, so his efforts come as no surprise. The morning we met, Labrador’s office was teeming with members of his constituency. At 49 and with a family of five children ranging from 13 to 23, the Eagle resident is almost a decade younger than the average member of the House. During his last campaign for re-election, his opponent insinuated that he was not an American because he was born in Puerto Rico. His Hispanic name and upbringing could lead to confusion, but Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States and people born there are naturalborn U.S. citizens. Nobody from Puerto Rico has ever run for the presidency but in 2013, during a hearing of a subpanel of the House Appropriations Committee, Supreme Court Justices Anthony Kennedy and Stephen Breyer seemed to indicate that a U.S. citizen born in Puerto Rico could be eligible. Labrador credits his late mother, Ana Pastor, for being his early inspiration. “She was a wonderful, brilliant woman and the best mother any child could have,” he says. The family lived near a beach resort where Mrs. Pastor, a single parent, worked in the hotel industry. Labrador keeps fond memories of his early years in

As a founding member of the House Freedom Caucus, recently Labrador was at the center of efforts to oust Speaker John Boehner and shake up the House’s leadership. The Freedom Caucus is a group formed to advance a conservative agenda of limited, constitutional government in Congress. According to Labrador the Caucus aims at Puerto Rico. “My best recollections are being close to the water,” he says. “I would walk to the beach almost every day and just watch the waves. As a child that was beautiful.” Labrador’s mother was very involved in the political life of the island. “There were always political meetings at my house, usually revolving around issues of possible statehood,” says Labrador, “and that is how I became interested in politics.” An admirer of JFK, Mrs. Pastor taught her son that his first responsibility was to go to school, study, work hard and make something of himself. But, that once he became successful, his moral obligation was to serve others and participate in making their lives better. “She thought the Kennedys exemplified that,” recalls Labrador. “Ironically, she was a Democrat who was anti-statehood and I became a Republican who is pro-statehood.” Realizing that he needed to learn discipline, Mrs. Pastor placed her young son in a military school for four years. When Labrador was 13, the family moved to Las Vegas. Setting a good example, Mrs. Pastor continued working full-time while going to school to earn a degree in education. At about that time Labrador joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, taking part in their Mentor Program. “I found two mentors in Las Vegas,” says Labrador. “The first one was my Scout Master, who was not a wealthy man but gave a lot of his time to people (in need) like me. The second one was my bishop who became my personal friend and, frankly, a man who

giving a voice to people who feel that Washington does not represent them. “With a small group that is able to work on issues that are of importance to our constituents, we can make a difference for people back home and keep Congress honest.” Regarding education, noting that our go-on rate is so low here and that Idaho is near the bottom in students who complete a four-year college degree, Labrador wants our educational system to encourage those who want to go on to college to attend, helping them graduate, but also give more opportunities to those students who want to go to a trade school. “The American dream is not about making money, but being the best at what you want to do with your life. When our young people are fulfilling their dream, they are living that American dream.” Pondering the economy, Labrador is bullish on Idaho. “This is a great place to raise a family,” he says, “but we need to go out and promote our state. A lot of people are not familiar with Idaho; they don’t realize what a wonderful place to live this is.” He blames the fact that Idaho is not attracting industries that could provide better paying jobs on our high tax rates. “We need to flatten our tax rate, and that would make us more attractive for high tech industries and other companies to come to Idaho. We could become a hub for the high tech community and really grow the economy.” Poll numbers for the last election suggest that most people in his district believe that Raúl Labrador is a dutiful politician, but above all he is a family man. In the past, he has been criticized for missing votes in Congress in order to be there for his children’s milestones, but he makes no excuses for that. “My wife and children come first,” says Labrador. “They are my inspiration.”

Rising Strong
By Liza Long PHOTOGRAPHY BY Jim Peterson
Daring in Idaho helps women to discover their inner joy.
Nancy Nadolski wasn’t planning on changing the world. Then one afternoon while folding socks and washing dishes, she listened to Brene Brown’s inspiring viral TED talk on the power of vulnerability. Nadolski, a a nurse practitioner who has a private practice in psychiatry and insomnia medicine at North End Psychiatry Associates, signed up to attend one of Brown’s three-day intensive workshops in Salt Lake City, and it changed her life. “The permission slips offered each day were what I needed to be vulnerable and unpack a box of shame I’ve carried since age 8,” Nadolski wrote to me. “I finally owned a life story that fueled my default negative thoughts of ‘Who do you think you are?’ and ‘You are never enough.’” After Brene Brown’s talk went viral with more than 25 million views to date, the University of Houston research professor decided that she wanted to start a global conversation about shame and vulnerability. Determined to understand the dynamics of how we connect with others, Brown developed The Daring Way™ curriculum, followed by Rising Strong last summer. After completing the workshop, Nadolski connected with Diane Hakes, social worker rock star of 26 years, who was the first person in Idaho to complete The Daring Way™ facilitator training. Hakes was in the first group of facilitators trained by Brown in San Antonio, Texas. She has been employed in agencies as a counselor and is the social worker at St. Luke’s Newborn Intensive Care Unit. Hakes now uses Brown’s approach in her own private practice. The Cancer Connection has employed her to facilitate The Daring Way™ for cancer survivors and their care givers and supports. “The shame and vulnerability of a diagnosis of cancer instills courage like I’ve never seen before,” she said. Hakes has facilitated workshops in McCall for St. Luke’s, and with Nadolski, she has begun to offer monthly weekend workshops and retreats for Treasure Valley women who want to free themselves from the narratives that have made them unhappy.

7. Cultivating Play and Rest: Letting Go of Exhaustion as a Status Symbol and Productivity as Self-Worth
“The curriculum weaves easily into my insomnia practice,” Nadolski said. “Instead of asking ‘How will you know you’re better?’ I ask my clients, ‘Where do you want to Show Up, Be Seen, and Live Brave™ in your life?’” Nadolski attended Brown’s final U.S. training with Julie Meyers, a counselor at Boise Counseling Center who is facilitating an 8 week, 2 hours on Friday morning, session there. There are currently 1500 trained candidates and facilitators. Nadolski and Meyers have met the criteria for Certified Candidates and over the next 10 months, they will meet all the requirements for Certified Facilitator status. Daring in Idaho’s 2016 goal is to facilitate 3-8 week groups, a monthly Friday and Saturday intensive workshop and continue to weave these tools into private practice.

Set your healthy resolutions early this year
The beginning of a new year is a time for resolutions— and often, health is at the top of the list. We are fortunate to live in an area with great outdoor accessibility year round to help with healthy resolutions. The Greenbelt provides a wonderful opportunity for the development of healthy habits, including walking, running, and biking. A few of my resolutions are consistent every year (run a new race, practice the banjo, call my sister), and I try to add one or two specific, health or wellness-focused goals each year as well. My resolution one year was to pack my lunch four days per week. Having a specific, measurable goal that I monitored every day helped me to stay accountable and made me more likely to throw something together to take to work, rather than buying an expensive soup and salad made with unknown ingredients. Have you made any health resolutions for 2016? According to Time Magazine, the most common New Year’s resolutions include getting fit, learning something new, spending more time with family, and being less stressed. Are any of these on your list? Studies show it takes anywhere from 21 to 66 days to form a habit, so stick with it! We try to make SMART goals, which are specific, measurable, achievable, results-focused, and time-bound. Creating resolutions following the SMART goal-setting formula leads to greater accountability and follow through. Tell your friends and family about your healthy goals, and enlist them to keep you accountable. Going for a morning walk is much more enjoyable with a buddy! Winter is a wonderful time to recreate outdoors if you follow a few precautionary measures:

CLOSE-UP product on the market. It allows people to identify areas of soft tissue restriction (often called trigger points), apply pressure, and then stretch that tissue under pressure with movement. T-Dot is adjustable by height, angle, and distance from the wall so you can target any area on the body, which provides a massive advantage to other products on the market.

Movement Guides By Jessica McAnally PHOTOGRAPHY BY Jim Peterson
With fitness, it’s not only about going through the motions, but also about going through the correct motions to get the most out of your routine. Eagle resident Kyle Sela is a physical therapist and coowner of Movement Guides, which manufactures unique fitness equipment in the Treasure Valley. Sela understands the importance of moving properly for better fitness. Movement Guides produces two customizable fitness equipment systems: The SquatGuide and T-Dot Mobility System. Eagle Magazine sat down with Sela to learn more about his approach to fitness.
An Interview with Owner, Kyle Sela
EM: What inspired you to start your own fitness equipment business? KS: As my physical therapy career was progressing, I continually noticed a common issue. Just about every patient I worked with could not squat with very good form, and the flaws that I saw in this movement pattern were just about the same in everyone. I soon found a really effective way to cue people into the correct position with my hands, but a few problems still existed with this method. I knew there was a way to create a device that could replace my hands but I didn’t have the means or connections to take that idea anywhere.
EM: How were you able to take that idea and turn it into a business? KS: When we moved to Eagle, I was looking for the best strength coach in the Treasure Valley to send my younger athlete patients to when they finished rehab. I came across Matt Wattles, who owns Competitive Edge Athletic Performance Center in Meridian, and

www.eaglemagazine.com
I was immediately impressed with his knowledge and training methods. As we began to work together developing young athletes, I also learned that a friend of his, Darin Lawley, had fabricated most of Matt’s equipment. Matt set up a meeting, and Darin said he could have a prototype done in a few weeks. I could not believe my eyes when I walked into the gym and saw the SquatGuide for the first time. Soon after that, Movement Guides, Inc. was born.
EM: What makes the SquatGuide unique? KS: We design with the intention of improving how people move. Yes, we want people to improve their strength but before loading up any type of movement or performing many reps even with just your body weight, we think you should move correctly. This will prevent well-intentioned exercises and fitness programs from turning injurious. The SquatGuide is your strength coach or therapist when those people are not around to coach you themselves. It requires that you move and control your own body and thereby improves functional and core strength. It only assists you by letting you know if you are or are not in correct position with tactile cues. We all need different stance widths and amounts of toe-out to squat effectively, and the SquatGuide can adjust to meet those differences without losing any effectiveness.”
EM: What’s next for Movement Guides? KS: The T-Dot Mobility System is our newest product, and it improves movement in a different fashion than SquatGuide. We feel that T-Dot is the most effective and versatile self-directed soft-tissue mobilization

FACE 2 FACE Emma Bailey, Eagle High School soccer team member, purchased 15 soccer balls, which were autographed by soccer team members and given to the VIP students. “Having my girls involved in the community and giving back helps to build a base for them to become strong, giving and compassionate young ladies in society,” shares Fornander. “We want to make a difference in the lives of many; one moment, one day and one game at a time. Our soccer team is rooted in these key principles; respect each member of our and the opposing team; respect peers, teachers and administrators; contribute to student body, the community; be open to learning, understanding and practicing the values of teamwork.”
Getting a Kick Out of Life with Eagle High School’s Soccer Team Women’s Soccer Coach Stephanie Fornander teaches her Eagle High students about making goals but not jut on the field. Last year, Fornander and her team raised money for RODS–Racing for Orphans with Down Syndrome, and achieved a goal they were all proud of. Fornander has been coaching soccer at Eagle High for the last 17 years.One of the most important games of the year took place on September 16–a special game which raised money for RODS.
Racing for Orphans with Down Syndrome
RODS’ mission is to nurture a positive image of Down syndrome and to promote awareness for the adoption of orphans with Down syndrome by raising adoption grant funds, one child at a time, and by participating in organized, athletic races and awareness events. Pledges were requested for every goal made by the VIP (athletes with special needs) students. Donations went to RODS to assist with the expense of adopting Laura, the featured RODS orphan. Inclusion of all students was promoted and signs bore the phrase “Winning with inclusion.” All students were invited to participate in the experience and each VIP student was honored when his or her name was called out with the starting lineup. Publicly introduced before the game, each Eagle High special education student kicked a shot to the goalie during the pre-game events. The VIP students also enjoyed a pizza party during the game. VIP athletes scored ten goals. Joyful faces and high fives were shared as students who don’t often get a chance to shine enjoyed the limelight. All Eagle High Varsity, Junior Varsity and Sophomore/Freshman Women’s Soccer team members are Rods Jr. members. Soccer teammates scored 5 additional goals for a

“The best memory for me,” recalls Fornander of the September event, “were the smiles on the students’ faces as they were called up, honored and then kicked to score a goal! The pure happiness and joy was felt by all and brought tears to my eyes along with many others. Truly a magical night that all will remember.”

total of 15 goals. Fifteen pledges were collected, totaling nearly $1,500 in donations. “The kids had an amazing time and we even had the support of other RODS Jr. team members supporting our VIP athletes,” enthused Trace Dandrea, whose son Anthony has Down syndrome. “Seeing our VIP athletes shooting goals during half time made it even more meaningful.” The RODS banner was displayed on Dandrea’s RV, a central location for athletes and advocates to congregate and spread the word. Many parents shared how much they appreciated the opportunity for their children to help those less fortunate with Dandrea. The community was inspired to help RODS and understood the blessing of supportive families. The Eagle High Women’s soccer team learned about concepts of integrity and leadership and the importance of giving back to the community. “All Varsity and Junior Varsity girls were participants in the event,” says Fornander. “Varsity had more of a hands on role with our shoot out and introducing of our honorary team members. We want to make it special and encourage involvement and inclusion throughout our team, the school and the community. It’s great to see them do more than just try to win games, but to use their talents for something greater than themselves.” Doug Cole is a RODS athlete and a marketing executive with the JR Simplot Company. Cole became involved with RODS through his friend and training partner, Dandrea. When Cole gets a high-five from Anthony before or after races, he is reminded of the love inside each VIP athlete. T-shirts were donated by Cole and Simplot for the VIP students who participated in the soccer “Kick Off Game.” Brian and Jen Bailey, parents of

Grit Finds Early Fit As Restaurant Starts Well By Brad Carlson PHOTOGRAPHY BY Jim Peterson
A new culinary landmark in Eagle
Except for the shine inside, Eagle’s newish Grit American Cuisine looks long-established. Meat-cutting entrepreneur Dave Faulk and Marineturned-chef Paul Faucher says Grit (styled GRIT with two-segment “I”) started strongly because the menu had broad appeal and the crew got in sync early – several employees worked together at Boise’s 10 Barrel Brewing, where Faucher was executive chef. Grit opened November 12th, and in its first week already had evening customers waiting briefly to be seated. A familiar but twisty menu, an ear for customers’ comments, and an eye for ingredients combining freshness and affordability seem early hallmarks at Grit, which Faulk owns and Faucher operates in the Albertsons-anchored plaza near downtown. “It’s a great collaboration of our talents,” says Faulk, who owns Porterhouse Market in Eagle. “I am a meat guy who can source great meats and Paul is a great chef who can present it to the table.” Grit emphasizes locally sourced food in a casual atmosphere at a reasonable price. Working with familiar meals is a fun change for Faucher, whose experience is in fine dining primarily. “We are just doing food that chefs like to eat, in a fun working environment without any constraints,” he says. Early strong sellers, the chef said, included seafood cioppino, prime-grade rib eye, beef stroganoff, and various “traditional American staples” – like Grit’s interpretation of bacon, pastrami or grilled-cheese sandwiches, and chicken pot pies made for same-day sale only. Appetizers like crispy cauliflower and mac and cheese (with house-smoked chipotle and adobo) found early followings, as did meals from lemon-brined fried chicken to artesian pizzas. “It’s high-quality food, house-made,” Faucher says.

We are proud to be a part of the newly established Eagle Foothills AVA. Just outside of Eagle, 3 Horse Ranch has crafted a tasting menu from artisan cheese trays to steamers, ready to pair with some of our amazing, award winning wines. Truly a delight for your senses!
Grit produces many of its own ingredients, such as smoked bacon, ham, and pastrami. The restaurant customizes and fine-tunes its meat orders from nearby Porterhouse. “Our menu is constantly changing,” Faucher says. Modifications will reflect customer demand, new fresh foods becoming available seasonally, and changes in market prices for ingredients in order “to keep the menu reasonably priced.” Grit seats 55, employs 22, and has a full bar. As of late November, the 1,500-square-foot restaurant was opening at 11 A.M. every day and closing 9 P.M. Monday through Thursday. Friday’s and Saturday’s they stay open an extra hour until ten, but Sundays they close around two or three. Early on, the staff was working on a brunch menu. Cultivating a “unique, fun atmosphere” is one of the staff’s goals, Faulk says. He said visual artist Lukas Evergreen likely will be assigned projects in addition to the wall-sized mural he has already created inside Grit.

LIVING Lincoln-Haye is inspired by people who are resilient and are willing to work through whatever life throws at them. Others might be inspired by her because she has been through difficult times herself and she can relate to loss—she lost her 19-year-old daughter Lacey 8 years ago. “I love my family, the outdoors and working. I believe in living fully and enjoying what you do,” says Lincoln-Haye. “I am inspired most by ordinary people who I have met over the years who do extraordinary things Idaho is full of those types of people.” Lincoln-Haye enjoys living in Eagle with her family, which includes Moses, a lab/hound dog and two cats named Romeo and Juliet. She says, “There are so many choices of things to do, yet I don’t feel like I am in a big city. Plus there are so many outdoor choices that are close. I am also a rock climbing guide and love rock and ice climbing, which are also my passions. My husband Stan and I facilitate a three day rock climbing event for Veterans and their families at the City of Rocks in Almo Idaho every August, called Warriors Rock. I also love to camp, fish, and hike.”
Equine Therapy: Diana Lincoln-Haye By Pamela Kleibrink Thompson PHOTOGRAPHY BY Jim Peterson
Horses for Wellness
Eagle resident Diana Lincoln-Haye doesn’t horse around when treating her patients. Lincoln-Haye MS, LPC, NCC has loved and been around horses her entire life. Before moving to Eagle, she lived on a horse and cattle ranch in Kimberly, Idaho, for 27 years, so it was natural that when she became a counselor she would use horses in therapy with her patients. Prior to becoming a counselor, she owned a Diagnostic Sleep Center in Twin Falls for 14 years. Lincoln-Haye moved to Eagle two years ago with her husband Stan Haye to be close to Nichole Rioux and Natasha Haye, two of her daughters. Lincoln-Haye has four children and two stepchildren. She helped raise an autistic grandson and when she found that riding was beneficial for him, she realized it might be helpful to others. To learn about equine assisted therapy, Lincoln-Haye did an internship with Dr. Rand Gurley in Sandpoint, Idaho. Gurley specializes in trauma and equine assisted therapy. Lincoln-Haye earned a master’s degree in clinical counseling at Prescott College in Arizona. “Equine Assisted Psychotherapy incorporates horses experientially for mental and behavioral health therapy and personal development,” explains LincolnHaye. “It is a collaborative effort between a licensed therapist who is a horse professional working with the clients and horses to address therapy goals.” Most insurance companies pay for equine assisted psychotherapy. Lincoln-Haye likes equine therapy because of “the joy that horses give people.” Equine therapy is useful for patients of many different ages—clients as young as five have been helped by equine therapy. Activities such as grooming, feeding, haltering, and leading a horse are supervised by a mental health professional who is also a horse

professional. “There are several aspects of cognitive/ equine-assisted therapy that work well with kids who have emotional and behavioral issues,” notes LincolnHaye. “One of the simplest aspects is diversion. When a young person is focused on grooming, feeding, or exercising a horse, his focus is no longer on his own issues and problems. Horses can even teach children how to behave respectfully.” Older children benefit from interaction with horses too. “Troubled teens can be in a state of aggression, defiance, or anger. Using horse therapy with teens helps maintain a constant and healthy chemical balance. Horses provide troubled youth with an opportunity to learn how to control and work with animals. Learning how to work with horses will help them in their day-to-day lives as they deal and work with humans.” Adults have also benefitted from equine therapy. “As adults it is important to know how to communicate,” states Lincoln-Haye. “Horses are wonderful teachers to help us better understand and learn how our nonverbal communication might be impacting or influencing others in our lives. Horses put us in touch with our emotions and keep us in the present.” Lincoln-Haye remembers a single mom and her two children who benefitted from equine therapy. She recalls, “[The patient] had been in an abusive relationship. Equine therapy gave her a feeling of trust to work with such a big but gentle horse and it gave her children the ability to express their fears in a safe environment.” Four horses are utilized at Lincoln’s practice—Horses for Wellness—and Lincoln’s respect and love for all of them is easily evident, but one holds a particular place in her heart. “Hank is a 27-year-old blue paint horse,” says Lincoln-Haye. “We’ve had him his whole life. He’s a very gentle, intuitive horse.”
