Self-Compassion & Emotional Regulation

$75.00

This equine-assisted wellness experience offers a gentle space to slow down, notice what’s present, and practice meeting yourself with kindness.

Guided, ground-based interactions with horses invite awareness of patterns such as self-criticism, pressure, and emotional reactivity. Through experiential activities and reflection, participants are supported in developing self-compassion, emotional regulation, and a greater sense of ease — both in the body and in daily life.

Horses respond to authenticity and presence, offering immediate, non-judgmental feedback that can help deepen self-awareness and soften inner dialogue. Sessions are paced intentionally, with choice and comfort prioritized throughout.

This experience is well-suited for those seeking a supportive, non-clinical approach to personal wellness, nervous-system regulation, and self-connection.

Session Focus

  • Emotional awareness

  • Self-kindness practices

  • Boundary noticing

  • Gentle regulation strategies

Ideal if you’re feeling:
Hard on yourself, emotionally reactive, or stuck in stress cycles.
