WHO ARE WE?
BEYOND THE PALE
INDIGENOUS CORPORATION
To survive predators, horses have evolved to be extremely sensitive to their environments.
They instinctively analyse and react to our body language and other non-verbal cues providing us with valuable feedback and insights for other areas of our lives.
Horses often large in size and powerful in presence, and at times we are unable to control such powerful animals.
Approaching horses helps us reflect how we approach our relationships and how we can face other big or overwhelming things in our lives.
Horses are social animals with defined roles within a herd. They have distinct personalities, attitudes and moods.
They could be stubborn, or they could be playful. In other words, horses are a lot like us.
Generally seeking to improve your health & wellbeing: you will experience a deeper connection through mindfulness in nature with support of herd healing.
Our herd allows you to deepen your understanding of depression, anxiety, addiction, grief & loss, separation, life transitions, relationships, behavioural problems and life stage adjustment through inclusive social connection.
Our herd supports leadership skills and improves your understanding through self-reflection on and around assertiveness, creative thinking, understanding others, teamwork, empathy, emotional intelligence, confidence, relationship building, and controlling or releasing of emotions.
Children & teenagers often find therapy difficult to engage, becoming part of a herd is much more authentic, less intimidating and allows them to be supported through non-verbal communication and sensory awareness for difficulties around assertiveness, confidence, developing and maintaining relationships, emotional awareness, empathy, impulse control, problem solving skills, social skills, trust in others and trust in self.
