Why Horses?
As a prey animal horses provide an experience of connecting to our own intuitive voice. They react to our authentic thoughts and feelings, in an honest yet non judgmental way, and therefore, aspire us to better understand ourselves. Horses require us to access the leadership within ourselves, in order to be leader to them, to another human, or to ourselves.
In the hands of skilled facilitators, horses become catalysts for transformation, helping us to break free from the confines of our limitations and embrace the fullness of our potential. Through their wisdom and grace, they remind us of our inherent worthiness and capacity for growth.
