Dove Creek Equine Rescue

Monthly Grief Group - Last One of 2024!
2024-12-08 14:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Dove Creek Ranch, 16201 Gordon Cummings Rd, Canyon, TX, 79015, United States
Led by Horses is offering a monthly support group for individuals navigating the river of grief. Grief is difficult to do alone – much less with any clarity. In this small group, we partner with the compassionate horses at Dove Creek Ranch to learn coping practices and build community with fellow human companions on this journey we travel together.

Horses possess an acute emotional awareness that allows them to attune to the feelings of humans, especially those grappling with profound grief or turmoil. Their capacity for authentic presence creates a sacred space where we can confront our most vulnerable emotions without judgment or artifice. Interactions with these majestic yet gentle beings facilitate a non-verbal process of rebuilding trust and processing complex emotions that may have become blocked or stagnant.
Equine-assisted session occur on the ground, side-by-side with the horse, and may involve grooming, leading, or simply being in their calming presence. Through these grounded exchanges, we rediscover the natural flow of our emotional landscape. Sessions typically begin and end with a group circle, but the majority of the time is spent with the horses in our indoor arena.
Laurie Higgins-Kerley and her team of Led by Horses Equine Coaches, and the “Healing Herd” offer their guidance and compassion in a safe space. Dove Creek is a peaceful place of solace for you to reflect, make deep connections, and become aware of the treasures within this experience.
One Session: $50

Mindfulness with Horses - Last one of 2024!
2024-11-16 14:00 - 17:00 | Dove Creek Ranch, 16201 Gordon Cummings Rd, Canyon, TX, 79015, United States
Led by Horses is offering Mindfulness with Horses every quarter, a group for adolescents and adults that combines guided meditation and experiential learning with horses to reduce stressful conditions like anxiety and depression, and provide tools for managing these issues.
Horses have a heart’s electromagnetic field which is 5 times more powerful than ours and 5 times larger! A herd of horses in coherence (heart rates are in harmony) generates a large and very powerful field. When we are around such a herd, the influence of the large field on us is almost immediate. We get in harmony with ourselves and we are in coherence.

Led by Horses is offering a monthly support group for individuals navigating the river of grief. Grief is difficult to do alone – much less with any clarity. In this small group, we partner with the compassionate horses at Dove Creek Ranch to learn coping practices and build community with fellow human companions on this journey we travel together.

Horses possess an acute emotional awareness that allows them to attune to the feelings of humans, especially those grappling with profound grief or turmoil. Their capacity for authentic presence creates a sacred space where we can confront our most vulnerable emotions without judgment or artifice. Interactions with these majestic yet gentle beings facilitate a non-verbal process of rebuilding trust and processing complex emotions that may have become blocked or stagnant.
Equine-assisted session occur on the ground, side-by-side with the horse, and may involve grooming, leading, or simply being in their calming presence. Through these grounded exchanges, we rediscover the natural flow of our emotional landscape.Sessions typically begin and end with a group circle, but the majority of the time is spent with the horse in our indoor arena.

Led by Horses is offering a monthly support group for individuals navigating the river of grief. Grief is difficult to do alone – much less navigate with any clarity. In this group, we will be in communion with horses and humans at Dove Creek Ranch. Participants will experience time to be with horses in silence, learn coping practices, and build community with their fellow human companions on this journey they travel together.
