When our minds and bodies fail to release our traumas, it affects everything.  The power of the Gestalt process catalyzes and elicits emotional and physical release, an acceptance within ourselves, and finally, personal and systemic transformation, not only from within us, but also interactions amongst our peers, friends, and intimates. 

Out in the field and alongside a horse, a person can undergo a radical shift in awareness, making contact with the here and now, leaving behind what was and accepting what is yet to be. 

Horses offer what we all crave: connection, relationship, acceptance, and vitality.  They don’t live in a vacuum or sterile environment and they definitely don’t regret yesterday or wonder about tomorrow.  They remind us that we are still connected and part of our Natural surroundings.
