Equi Workshop: Trauma
Trauma
PTSD workshop (post-traumatic stress)
Horses have been increasingly recognized for their therapeutic benefits in helping individuals cope with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Interacting with horses can promote relaxation, reduce anxiety, and increase self-awareness. Equine-assisted therapy, also known as horse therapy, involves various activities such as grooming, riding, and connecting with horses, which creates a unique bond between the individual and the animal. The rhythmic movement of horses can have a calming effect on the nervous system, helping to regulate emotions and alleviate symptoms of PTSD. Additionally, horses are highly sensitive animals and can mirror the emotional state of the person interacting with them, providing valuable feedback and promoting emotional healing. In the presence of horses, individuals with PTSD may experience a sense of trust, empowerment, and improved self-esteem, contributing to their overall well-being and recovery.

Equi Workshop: Relationships
Relationships
How to understand them?
Horses have an innate ability to reflect our emotions and intentions, making them powerful teachers when it comes to understanding our relationship patterns. These magnificent creatures can sense our energy and respond accordingly, giving us valuable insights into our own behavior. Through interactions with horses, we can become aware of any subconscious patterns or fears that may be affecting our relationships. For example, if we approach a horse with hesitation or fear, they will mirror our hesitation back to us. By observing their reactions, we can begin to recognize and address these patterns in our interactions with others. Horses provide a non-judgmental and honest reflection of our inner selves, allowing us to explore and transform our relationship dynamics. So, if you're looking to gain a deeper understanding of your relationship patterns, spending time with horses can be a transformative experience.
