The gift of being YOU!
Leadership has been a widely discussed and an important hot topic for the last ten years or so, and we have all witnessed and experienced the effect of this changing tide of understanding and influence within our environment, political system, personal
landscape and family units. Yet, one of the most commonly overlooked elements of true leadership is that without clear purpose and direction, we often lead ourselves and others into unintended spaces. And, once we get there, we are unable to work out
how it happened and how to create a different outcome.
Does this sound familiar to you?
There are a few key themes to assist us with navigating life as the richest version of who we are, and creating what it is we desire for ourselves and others. They are simple, uncomplicated and create ease and flow - even in the face of big challenges
and lofty goals.
Simple perhaps, but not easy;
successfully lead your own experience of life and be your fullest self. You will also learn to harness
the power of, and settle down your inner critic - the cause of many sabotaging elements which often show up right
when you may feel inspired and ready to take action on your purpose! Or are in the middle of taking action!
When you begin to work with your own power, potential and passion, as well as with the Intelligence of Life, rather than
against it – you become the gift of being you in the world. And then you have the opportunity to share this gift with
yourself and others - inspiring connection, community and belonging simply by being YOU!
And knowing and trusting this is all YOU ever have to do!!

and lofty goals.
Simple perhaps, but not easy;
- Key to the process is purpose which offers us the clarity of direction so we know where we are headed.
- Communication offers us the capacity to know our own deep internal desires and reveal them to others, so they are invited to share and contribute to the experience, if that's what we choose.
- And implementation provides strategy, traction, momentum and the opportunity to course correct during the often treacherous follow through period.

Relationships are the foundation of life. We are in relationship with everything. Join us and the horses as we deep dive into the core concepts of partnership, the various pathways of access and the skills and understanding necessary to create personal ease and mastery in relationships, even during times of challenge, conflict and tension.
If relationships are the foundation of life, why are they so tricky?
Throughout life we experience ourselves as being separate from so many things; other people, our body, our internal dialogue (ie there is a voice inside our heads talking to us) and animals. It feels like everything is done 'to' us versus 'for' us. In order to maintain a strong sense of our own being, in relation to all these things, connection is vital. Connection opens the doorway into safety, security and trust. And, vulnerability allows us to further deepen those bonds of sharing, honesty and transparency in order to create the sense of community, relationship and belonging that all people and components of Nature yearn to experience.
Horses facilitate connection at a very deep capacity, and invite us to synchronise with them, in a felt experience. With an *electromagnetic field around their heart roughly 5-10 times the size of a humans, and a coherent heart rhythm, they are the natural partner for humans wishing to explore and further communicate at this deep relational level. The gift of connection and deepening partnership bonds can be directly felt and experienced in this (equine assisted coaching) space with horses, allowing us unique personal access and insight. *source: www.heartmath.org
Our ability to create, navigate and sustain functional and inspiring partnerships with others is one of the greatest areas of joy and happiness in life, and yet also a breeding ground for dysfunction, pain and suffering.
Is this true for you?
Horses offer us a socially intelligent model of group dynamics, they have five clearly defined roles (each with a mature and an immature expression) within their herd, which changes endlessly in perpetual creative response to what shows up within themselves and their environment. In the learning of these five roles, the willingness to use our power of choice, as well as how we decide to express that role at that time - we can begin to shape and participate in our own relationships in a much more conscious and intentional way.
In other words once we have a greater understanding of what creates great relationships, we can more easily and skilfully nurture and perpetuate them, as well as recognise and deal appropriately with the dysfunctional patterns that exist, in order to navigate any potentially stressful relational situations more successfully.
This workshop is a powerful, experiential way to really begin to understand and transform the elements of relationship that are not working for you, in a compassionate and safe way. The experience will also allow you the opportunity to learn new skills and put them into practise with horses before you begin to implement them with other people and in your day to day life. In this way, the changes are embedded into muscle and cellular memory, as direct physiological change. And alongside the new cognitive understanding of group dynamics and social intelligence, powerful shifts are available during the workshop as well as once the weekend is complete.
We are excited to share this simple and fascinating new material with you all! Please come along and join with us, and the horses, for what will truly be a life changing event.
