Come join us for a day of relaxation and connection with our gentle rescue horses in the serene setting of Smiling Faces Equestrian. This retreat is designed to help you unwind, recharge, and find harmony in the company of these majestic and sentient animals. Through various activities and interactions, you will discover the healing power of horses.
Through the use of equine assisted learning you will be guided through exercises that will allow you to explore your communication, problem solving, and ability to be present in the moment. All activities take place on the ground with our safe and friendly horses, supervised by trained equine facilitators.
Spend time in nature to rebalance your soul. You will be introduced to the concept of Forest Bathing and learn how being in nature can help regulate your nervous system. Engage in mindfulness and meditation practices to calm and reduce any unwanted feelings. Move your body through gentle yoga, letting go of the stresses of life. Enjoy a nourishing lunch amongst the many animals at the farm including goats, Burrito the donkey, our mini horses, Rodeo and Smudge, and our cats and dogs.
No riding of horses is involved and no horse experience necessary – just an open heart and a willingness to connect. Your day will be facilitated by psychotherapist and certified equine facilitator, Laura Boyko. Her wonderful assistants will guide you through a fun afternoon being up close and personal with our equine friends. Enjoy a gentle and restorative yoga experience amongst the sounds of farm life! Leave the day feeling rested and restored. Connect with like-minded people as you give yourself an experience like no other.
