The Medicine of Horses:
The Retreat
There is a unique medicine and gift that exists within an individual horse, an essence that is part of the wisdom and teachings that is theirs to hold.
How do we know how to interpret and experience the medicine of our horses and empower them in their unique wisdom and essence?
This retreat is a deep dive into the exploration of knowing how to read and know the medicine of our horses, as individuals and unique beings. It is an opportunity for us to also be able to deepen and explore our own ability to trust our intuition and impressions, and how to bring that forward both in how we hold our horses in partnership in their wisdom and also with our own connection with them.
To know the medicine of our horse means to be able to witness them in the fullness of who they are, to acknowledge and empower who they are in the world and to understand and support how they show up, both as a horse and as a teacher for us and others.
In this retreat you will also be able to build confidence not just in how you read your own horses but our teaching herd, applying the capacity to develop intuition and trust in how you read energy, and interpret that through the lens of witnessing the medicine of another being.
What is medicine?
We resonate with the philosophy that all beings and elements including ourselves have a medicine that is ours to give to the world, this is the essence of who we be, our gifts and our wisdom, being able to start to see the medicine of horses, also helps in many ways for us to see the world through this curiosity of what are the gifts that we come across in the world and empower their place with us.
Who is this retreat for?
This retreat is for:
Equine practitioners that are wanting to know how to empower the unique presence and medicine of their horse partners to elevate how they support and partner with horses in their practice.
Horse owners that are wanting to view their horses in this way and be curious as to how knowing the medicine of horses in their care, support their own individual partnership with them.
What we cover in this retreat:
What is medicine and how do we begin to read and know that in our horses.
Exercises and activities that help us read energy, presence and medicine through our intuition rather than our ego.
How to bring the interpretation of medicine into application in our relationships and practice with our horse partners.
How knowing the medicine of horses can help to support the healing and empowerment of our horse partners.
In our herd of 27 wise equine teachers you will have the opportunity to practice and read a range of horses in how they show up in their expression of medicine.
All horses are unique in how they express and show up in their medicine, and you will be able to receive the opportunity to explore that in a range of horses in how they show up and express who they are.
The retreat takes place at our retreat Epona Rise Retreat center north of Kamloops, British Columbia.
