The Horse-Human Connection: HEAL's 8 Keys to Relationship

HEAL’s 8 Keys to Relationship provide students with a roadmap to feeling-based relationships and in reality that means most relationships!  The HEAL Model of Equine-Facilitated Learning is a practical and transformative blend of mindfulness, psychology and mind-body awareness.  This model is well supported by the new discoveries in neuroscience having to do with measurable changes in the brain when we heal outdated relationship patterns and effectively “re-write our history” by developing new patterns of relating to others in the present.  Not surprisingly, the horses are the most fantastic teachers for this and we’ll spend lots of time with them to put principles into practice!

Note: This workshop approaches EFP/L from both a cognitive and an experiential level.  Participants will learn about EFP/L and how it works; they will also experience EFL to find out that it works.  This workshop is best for professionals and others who are interested in finding out more about EFP/L and who might be interested in incorporating horse work into their own profession in some way.
