Healing Humanity to Heal the Earth

Horses are healers and advanced beings. They are conduits to higher frequencies and remind us to be present—not in the past or future, but in the here and now. When we ask to receive the healing gift from horses, we witness firsthand their ability to move stuck energy, calm emotions, and clear the mind. Our herd of 13 horses honors this role and looks forward to working with participants in our Horse Healing Retreats.

We invite participants to tap into the innate healing abilities of the horses and honor them as shamans in their role of awakening our consciousness.

At this retreat, participants will rewrite their narrative and release blockages to make space for new energy. They are guided to set intentions for insights, solutions, and clarity while expanding confidence and competence through movement and bareback partnership. The horses illustrate parallel issues of trust, forgiveness, and threshold limits and illuminate emotional intelligence skills for mindful decision-making and past grief healing.

Participant Testimonies from our May 2023 Retreat

Horses are advanced beings waiting for humanity to wake up and get it. They’re animals with instinct, yes, but they are also stellar beings with intuition and connection to source energy.

This retreat is for families, corporations, groups, and solo. 

​

Although we are a fully functioning farm—with hay fields, tractors, horses, chickens, and goats—we are only 30 minutes from South Lake Tahoe and 45 minutes from Reno (international airport). We are a few miles away from Interstate 50, 80, and Highway 395, so you get the convenience of modern life while staying on a dream farm oasis. 

​

We are on a 30-acre property with multiple gathering grounds, including a tipi, sweat lodge, fire pit, immersion tub, arenas, obstacle courses, moguls, and stargazing deck… Many activities abound in this area, including snow skiing, boating on the lake, Crystal Mountain - hunting for crystals, old ghost towns, Virginia City, and four-wheeling adventures… There is a plethora of activities!  We extend the idea that if people want to stay beyond the four days of retreat, our participant concierge can help create an amazing adventure vacation in America’s Wild West!
