We see you, Sis! And  we are calling you OUTSIDE! So many of us are always on, mind in the past or in the future. Our eyes are often glued to screens or scanning for other people's needs or the next stressor. 

Being Village — our theme this season — reminds us that we were never meant to be this depleted, and disconnected. From nature. From our bodies. From each other. We are part of something living and breathing and deeply interconnected. And sometimes, the best teachers aren't in a book or on a screen. Sometimes, they have four legs and know things we've forgotten.

Join us for a guided animal learning experience at Happy Hooves Farm — where horses, ponies, goats, and chickens will be our teachers for the day.

Here's what moved us when we met with the facilitator: horses read energy. They don't respond to who you were last week or what your title is. They meet you exactly as you are, right now, in this body, in this moment — and they leave room for you to be different tomorrow. That kind of presence! Do we have that with ourselves? With each other? We're gonna learn and practice with our animal friends.

Here's more: horses hold roles within their herd — and those roles shift fluidly as needs change. Not fixed. Not rigid. Just deep attunement to each other and to the moment. As we build village together, there is something here to learn about how we hold our own roles — with openness, with fluidity, with trust in each other.

This experience is guided, and it's also flexible — responsive to where we are and what the animals are experiencing right alongside us. We come with curiosity instead of an agenda. We practice power with, not power over. We let nature lead.

After, we'll share a picnic lunch in a beautiful outdoor space, and some time to sit together, reflect and discus.

What to bring: Closed-toed shoes and clothes that can handle a little dirt and a lot of goodness. Come as you are — ready to receive.
