RelationSHIP begins with contact.
As a student of the Gestalt Equine Institute of the Rockies, my own transformation continues from the powerful work of equine therapy. Horses are hardwired for awareness, and by working with these instinctual creatures, humans can unlock the ways we guard and protect ourselves, often subconsciously, from the external world. Horses ask us to trust, and the more that we learn to trust, the less we have the need to control. These are the teachers of our ancestors who will provide us the wisdom to release our masks, and the safety to be our authentic selves once again. They do not trade their need for attachment for their authenticity. I invite you to join me in this experiential form of treatment individually or in a group setting as a way to fully step into your present moment experience.
Participants observe, groom, feed, lead, and sometimes mount horses during these sessions.
I am currently offering workshops in Colorado with Duey Freeman and have partnered with the nonprofit Equinox Odysseys to host workshops in Southern California. Please reach out directly for me to come to your community or create a program with your herd of horses. I have worked with cancer survivors, veterans, men, couples and families. If you have a special interest group that is being called to this work, I encourage you to email me at clients@nicksharp.life.
