Horses as Partners in Transformation

May 25-27, 2012
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 tranform 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.
Participants will engage in these skills and activities:
- Uncovering messages behind emotions
