Does it work
for getting out of the car too? Every day the temperatures are in the 50’s
or below, I get out of my truck and get shocked by the very next thing I touch,
whether it’s the door, window, tires or the gate. I’ve taken
to swiping my Mom’s car (leather seats)!

You
can discharge yourself before working
the horse by dampening your hands and slipping them through your hair and over
your clothes. You don’t have to get wet; just damp. The water
will absorb the excess electrons so you won’t have a charge to build
up. If the horse is charged do the same with their mane/tail/over some of
their body so you will both be discharged before working.
This
works if your skirt is sticking to
your legs at work tooJ
