Why horses? The human love affair with horses is ancient and far-reaching. Horses are live, dynamic, and impressive creatures that influence people in powerful ways. Working with them provides rich metaphors applicable to life. This retreat experience offers an opportunity for people to connect with mind, body, spirit, and nature through the powerful and inspirational attraction we have to this noble creature. It is ideal for anyone who desires a vacation that offers relaxation, recreational activities, and an element of personal growth. Participants will gain self-knowledge and a better understanding of themselves through activities designed to access an inner world inspired by horses. Sessions include imaginal activities, un-mounted ground work, trail rides, and Native American ritual combined with plenty of leisure free time that will encourage you to discover your own “Horse Within.” No horse experience needed! Almost all activities are unmounted. Those unfamiliar with, afraid of, or inspired by horses are encouraged to attend. Two trail rides are offered in western tack and are completely optional. Those who choose to ride will be suitably mounted according to preference and ability.
