EQUINE THERAPY
with Nessa Emrys
Healing with Horses
Horses have evolved with and among humans for thousands of years. The shared bond as well as a horse's herd instincts create a healing medium for emotional awareness. Horses can help us learn more about our hidden emotions - the shadow we hold in relation to ourselves. While tension, anxiety, or fear can be a common enough feeling in our bodies that we just think we are "normal", a horse can amplify its actions around us to help guide us into an avenue of healing. Having an active relationship to horses in your life or no experience with horses at all does not effect the horse's amplification of your shadow emotional state of being. Nessa uses horses with clients when the ability to interact with the body is impeded through pain, too much thinking, or an inability to admit emotions. She uses her skills of reading energetic interactions and shifts to help people come into safe and rewarding interactions with her horses.
Meet Jack
Jack is an off the track thoroughbred who specializes in helping people heal anxiety and stress. Jack reacts to fear by becoming agitated and calms down when people admit their hidden fears or stresses to him and start to breathe deeper. He helps people learn tools to come out of fear, stress and anxiety by showing how mindful embodiment and relaxation creates a more approachable person.
Meet Sir Will
Will is a young, gentle soul with a steady presence and deep desire to connect. Sir Will helps people who struggle with abandonment, unprocessed grief, or neglect come to terms with their desire to love and connect as a deep and basic need. His ability to drop into trust is a great teacher to everyone.
