What Our Equine Program Offers 

One of the distinctive aspects of working with horses is the real-time feedback they provide. Horses are highly intuitive animals that can sense subtle changes in mood and body language, allowing participants to reflect on how their internal states manifest outwardly. This non-verbal communication can offer unique insights that are often missed in other settings. 

Additionally, the hands-on interaction—whether leading, grooming, or simply being with the horse—can have a calming effect. For individuals who find it difficult to express themselves verbally or feel disconnected from their emotions, these activities can provide grounding and open up new paths to personal growth.

Examples of Activities in Our Equine Therapy

Participants in our equine program engage in various activities designed to promote confidence and self-awareness, such as

• Grooming and caring for the horse

The Benefits of Equine Activities

Research has shown that interactions with horses can lower blood pressure, alleviate stress, and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.

A Spiritual Approach to Equine Therapy

Our program focuses on integrating spirituality with therapeutic benefits. We believe horses can play a valuable role in helping individuals connect with God and reflect on His attributes, such as strength, gentleness, and humility. These qualities, mirrored in the horses we work with, help individuals deepen their understanding of both themselves and their faith.
