HSPs and Horses


Dear Reader,

IThis is your last chance to save with early bird pricing for our Day of the Dead Equine-Assisted Therapy Daylong on November 1!

t's been two years since our last HSPs and Horses retreat, and now we have two opportunities on the horizon. In just a couple of weeks, join us for Day of the Dead: Ancestors, Horses, and the Healing of Grief (an intimate and deep healing day of reframing the past and healing trauma, part of the HSP 5 to Thrive). And on May 1, 2027, we will be offering a daylong HSPs and Horses retreat where we will be exploring how sensitivity lives in the herd as an asset, learning from them to navigate sensitive strengths.
​
​Day of the Dead is a time to honor those who came before us, remember those we've lost, and celebrate the connections that continue to shape our lives.

I invite you to join me and the Heart & Mind Equine herd for a special day of reflection, healing, and connection.

Together, we'll explore grief, remembrance, and our relationships with our ancestors through equine-assisted therapy, sound healing, somatic practices, and meaningful rituals.

We'll also create an altar to honor our ancestors and loved ones. You're invited to bring a photo or small object to contribute.

Whether you're carrying grief, navigating a life transition, or simply longing for a deeper connection with yourself and those who came before you, this day offers space to reflect, remember, and heal.

Sunday, November 1, 9:30am - 3:30pm​
Heart & Mind Equine | Woodacre, California

Space is limited to just 15 participants to keep this experience intimate and personal.

Early bird pricing ends tomorrow! Reserve your place now and join us for this very special gathering.

When he was telling me about studying how medicines work in the body, how they are metabolized, and how long they are effective, it hit close to home. As I have been navigating my COVID symptoms, using both traditional over-the-counter medicines as well as various herbs, homeopathy, and...
