The Light That Heals: Linda Parelli’s Story

In this episode of Integrative Medicine with Dr. Leland Stillman, Linda Parelli, founder of Happy Horse, Happy Life, joins Dr. Stillman to share her journey with natural healing and holistic wellness. Known for her pioneering work in natural horsemanship, Linda brings her deep understanding of energy, behavior, and balance from the equestrian world into her own experience of recovery and renewal. Her story begins with a shoulder injury that opened the door to discovering the power of light-based therapies.

Dr. Stillman and Linda discuss how simple, non-invasive approaches can support the body’s innate ability to heal. Linda shares compelling experiences of relief and recovery in herself, her family, and even her animals, emphasizing the importance of curiosity and experimentation in wellness. Their discussion highlights how modern medicine and natural healing can coexist to improve quality of life and support long-term vitality.

Together, they explore the role of energy, mindset, and connection in health. From addressing pain and inflammation to supporting emotional well-being, Linda’s story offers practical insight into how holistic tools can enhance healing outcomes. This conversation reminds listeners that true wellness involves more than symptom relief, it’s about restoring harmony and resilience across the body, mind, and spirit.

Linda channels her personal journey of healing with light into empowering riders and leaders through her work with horses and her programs, Happy Horse Happy Life, Parelli Natural Horsemanship, and Pegasus Personal Growth.
