Introduction Programs: Understanding Emotions

In addition to longer-term programs, Next Stage offers a variety of half, full, and two-day starter programs. With these, the intention is to provide exposure to this experiential, equine-guided way of supported learning. Sessions offered arise from topics known to challenge us as we go about our daily activities.

Equine Facilitated Coaching is essentially equine-guided inquiry, discovery and learning that enables growth. To explore issues important to them, participants partner with a professional coach and Horse. The coach first supports the client to clarify the issue. Then, the client completes with a horse, a series of activities designed to help them discover new ways of sensing, thinking, and being. The coach works with participants to help them understand the significance of the horse’s behaviour as it relates to the horse-human connection, energy and communication. From there, the coach guides the participant to apply new insight and learning to their life.

Equine-guided experiences draw upon both the horse’s nature and the coach’s professional expertise, creating a unique opportunity for the client to embody their learning. Growth happens when we take time to reflect on our experiences and choose to live the change we want to see.

Understanding Emotions

We live in a world where we’ve been taught a lot about emotions. Taught that they are either good or bad; to show them or not to show them; that they represent strength or weakness and so on and so on. What if we could learn to think differently about emotions?  What if we could realize that emotion is energy in motion? What if we could get to a place where we understand the wisdom of the emotion?  How would we live differently if we could be with, rather than be controlled, by our emotion?  If this appeals to you please join the two day session designed to dig into the positive power of our emotion.

Price: $545.00 / 2 days + HST
