A Personal Touch

At Epona Retreat Centre, we have created a serene, expansive and loving space for clients facilitated by our three therapy horses, Ruby, Lizzie and Isabel. ?The highest quality Animal Reiki Teaching, Horse Therapy Retreats and 121 mentoring are delivered through our programmes.

To ground your personal energy to Mother Earth, we invite and invoke connectedness and healing in the present and at the heart centre, allowing you to experience increased internal stability and confidence

Epona, the Celtic goddess of horses was the inspiration for the name of our centre of healing. The patron goddess of mares and foals, Epona had a gift to heal horses and heal with horses. The book “The Tao of Equus”, by Linda Kohsnow (Epona Equestrian Services) was pivotal in guiding me on my path. Her teachings helped me to clearly define and articulate the feelings and insights evoked through horses.

As a child, I learned to narrow my attention, cling to the past and focus on the future, thus losing my ability to be fully functional in the present moment. I realised I had dissociated from my body, my instincts and my senses. ?In 1988, I discovered Reiki Energy Healing, which was a life changing experience for me.

It was in 2009 that I discovered the exciting world of Energy Healing through horsemanship.?I clearly recall a neighbor's request for my assistance with a thoroughbred foal, which his vet had diagnosed as “dying”.?Over four days I worked with the mare and the dying foal, the results were incredible as not only the foal but also the mare and the owner we healed through the process. This was a powerful experience as the horses recognised and responded to the true feeling behind the facade, which is why it is difficult to hide fear, anger or sadness in their presence. This experience heightened the awareness of how our thoughts and emotions influence the emotional level of the horses. Over the years, I have had the privilege to help myself and many people connect and heal their own foals, mares and themselves through the Horse Therapy Reiki Energy Healing.

I have received my most valuable gifts from the listening skills of the horses.?In my experience, horses have helped me clear the unconscious resistance that prevented me from listening and receiving intuitive insights to take actions to clear and release blocks that inhibit me in trusting myself. After three years working on spirited thoroughbred horses, I realised I needed to get my own horses in order to expand my work. Being still out in the field and in nature with my three horses and listening to my own energy has led me to my soul purpose. I now know why I am here and this life changing experience has helped me to walk in harmony and peace, and have respect and love for all human beings and myself.

Horses naturally read your energy, they are aware of your body language and they pick up-on the thoughts from your head not your words. They communicate immediate feedback, demonstrating how a change in your energy affects everything around them. I teach communication with horses on a consciousness level so my clients become more aware of what else is possible for their horses and themselves. Click here to find out more.

I use Energy of Connection in my work to demonstrate to my clients when we show up energetically, we gain an understanding of energy as communication. Through this channel, we receive energy attunement and harmony from the herd and deepen our connection to our soul’s path, intuition and our body’s innate ability for self-healing. ?Amazingly, the fastest way to discover who you are and what you are presenting to the world is revealed by interacting with a horse.?Click here to find out more about my Animal Reiki Workshops and Click here for my Horse Retreats.

We are incredibly excited and honored to offer a number of Animal Reiki Workshops (Level 1,2 3 & Master Training), Horse Therapy Retreats (1 day retreats/2 day retreats) and 121 mentor and coaching opportunities at Epona Retreat Centre in 2023. ?Each workshop, retreat and coaching session offers a unique opportunity to experience the natural medicine of the horses.?My teaching, retreats & 121 mentoring are non-riding programs designed to make connections with nature, while providing an inspirational, learning experience for individuals and groups. No experience of horses is required to attend Epona Retreat Centre. I offer clients take-home practices to support their energy connection by guiding them through Tai Chi/QiGong, meditation and breathing exercises with the horses.

If you are interested in bringing a group, learning animal communication or would like to do 121 mentoring, please connect with me on my website: www.eponaretreats.com or email: [email protected]

Sending you lots of love & light.
