Awakening to Spirit through the Way of the Horse
August 20, 2009 by EveBLee
Experience a deeper awareness of yourself, identify your personal roadblocks, and explore areas of bodily tension that inhibit your ability to reach your own true potential as you meet and engage with the Equine Magic Appaloosa herd. Allow your body, mind, and spirit to awaken and move to a new rhythm in our changing world amidst shifting reality.
Through a series of specially designed activities in a group setting, you will receive a boost in self esteem and confidence that comes from learning how to establish boundaries as you engage and direct a thousand pound creature using mental focus, creative visualization and clarity of intent.
Prior experience with horses is not necessary, and all activities with horses are on the ground in this workshop.
Awakening to Spirit through the Way of the Horse includes these philosophies, skills and activities:
* Uncovering the messages behind emotions
* Being congruent vs. incongruent
* Identifying False Self and Authentic Self Voices
* Boundaries: Establishing and maintaining clear and consistent personal space
* Body Scan: Full body scan to determine baseline emotional and physical state
