Connecting to Self Through Horses
Equine Assisted Inner Yoga
Aims of Connecting to Self Through Horses?
We are offering a unique and dynamic way for connecting to inner self. Most of us are acquainted with yoga from a physical aspect through asanas, developing and maintaining flexibility strength, balance and overall physical wellbeing.
The heart of yoga and the ancient vedantic tradition is to get to know ourself and to focus on personal development.
Connecting to self through horses offers a direct parallel / way to gently explore and complete the wider aims of yoga has to offer: developing emotional and mental wellbeing, personal development, inner peace and harmony. In summary:
- Realising inner strengths
- Begin to know ourselves on a deeper level
- Becoming aware of any dissatisfactions in life
- Developing awareness of any misperceptions of reality
- Developing new levels of consciousness through self-realisation
What will I be Doing?
Sessions incorporate horses experientially for personal development. All the activities are ground based and there is no riding involved. No prior experience with horses is necessary, sessions are self-exploratory in nature and not horse skill based.
Guests are invited to meet the horses in their natural environment, the horses are free to choose to engage or not. Guests will be invited to carry out tasks involving the cooperation of the horses.
Horses are very sensitive to non-verbal communication, thus respond to the signals and messages conveyed by the participant in the moment and respond naturally and spontaneously. Horses take individuals at face value on any given moment.
Guests are invited to get to explore the feel of each horse the subtleties of non-verbal communication, beginning to develop a relationship with the horses.
Guests may be invited to choose an aim that they would like to work on regarding their personal or team goals, or it could be an obstacle in life that they would like to overcome. The facilitator would then set a task for the guests to work through with the horse/s.
Guests will have the opportunity to explore their experiences within the sessions and later through reflection if they wish.
The spiritual and emotional insight one can gain from a horse is indescribable. Horses are large, dynamic and powerful, which creates a natural opportunity to overcome fear and to develop confidence. Completing a task with a horse, despite any fear creates a huge sense of achievement.
Sessions are closely monitored by the facilitator focusing on physical and emotional safety.
Your Facilitators
Helen has over 15 years of experience running equine assisted growth and development sessions and is certified to do so. Helen is the founder of Horsepowers.
The co-facilitators (the horses) between them have years of experience and have supported many individuals and groups to experience life changing revelations, realisations and moments of clarity that transfer outside of the sessions to their lives.
Sessions last between 1 to 2 hours.
What do I Need to Wear?
Comfortable clothes. Strong shoes. You will be working outside and so your clothing must be right for the weather.
A Couple of Important Notes
Ground rules for the sessions will be worked out as a team. An important observation is that anything discussed in the session will stay within the group. One thing that you will need to bear in mind is that food will never be used as a treat in these sessions, and must not be brought to the sessions.
