Life Coaching through Equine Experiential Learning: Experiential Learning is a hands on, client led, activity session in which clients partner and work with our horses to solve problems, increase communication, and learn coping skills. Learning Sessions are designed to foster self-awareness by recognizing old thought patterns that no longer serve you and congruency training through authentic interaction with our horses, self-reflection including therapeutic journaling and utilizing mind/body awareness techniques. These sessions have proved extremely beneficial for teenagers and parents working to understand others needs as well as individuals looking for a greater understanding of themselves and how they respond to the world around them. All horse work is done at the clients level of comfort. Tasks are set for the participant and the horse and how these partners decide to work through those tasks are up to them. Processing afterward is a beneficial and major component to this work as participants begin to see patterns and how they respond to everyday life situations. Sessions can focus on areas needing improvement such as leadership, boundary setting, team work, emotional awareness and more. We recommend at least a 12 week, once a week commitment for those seeking to make life changes. CHECK OUT our options for Life Coaching under our Programs Offered tab.
