Interconn-
EQ-tedness
“We too are part of Nature, therefore constantly changing, so we are always looking at Nature from a different viewpoint. We are a little piece of continual change looking at an infinite quantity of continual change. Small wonder that it gets quite exciting.” ~B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life
This workshop offers a focus on developing our connection with nature, in the company of horses. We will spend our time exploring how horses experience the world through observing, interacting and being present with horses, ourselves and the nature around us. We will then explore techniques in which we can increase our awareness and connection with the natural world. We invite you to join us in this space where we strive to take the time out of busy schedules for grounding time with horses and an exploration of our interconnectedness to nature.
Next Date: Sunday October 26th Time: 10-12. $125
EQ-uilibrium: Stress Reduction with Horses
Whether you are looking to spend time with horses, quiet the “what ifs” of the future or reconnect with yourself...this series is for you!
Come spend time in beautiful Petaluma, California with our horses. This is a series of four, one-hour workshops offering you a chance to guide yourself back to the present moment, reduce stress and find more inner peace with the help of horses.
What can you expect from this series?
On the second Monday of the month (September - November 2025; and then Sunday December 7th, 2025) we will guide you through experiences to help you become grounded in the present moment, find the harmony within and explore mindfulness alongside the horses. Find ways to reduce stress through building a toolbox of techniques and practicing these tools in real time with the help of horses and nature. These meetings will build off of one another so it is recommended that you sign up for the entire series, but not required. [Currently offered for adults, if you are interested in a similar offering for adolescents, please contact us.]
Time: 3-4pm $30
* This discounted offering is made possible through support from our donors of the 2025 Horses for Mental Health Campaign where we raised funds to help our increase access to services for our community. *
