Join Us for a Morning of Reset and Relaxation at the Farm

We invite you to spend a peaceful morning at the farm immersed in nature with a unique combination of guided meditation, sound therapy, and gentle yoga held in the serene company of our therapeutic riding horses. Take a break, reconnect with yourself, and experience the calming presence of horses in this special fundraising event benefiting our nonprofit therapeutic riding program. Services are generously donated by Gloria Pavlik and Cynthia Bass to support our mission.

Morning Schedule

9:00 AM-Guided Meditation with Horses (15 minutes)
Begin your morning with a calming guided meditation alongside our horses. Focused on breathwork and relaxation, this session is designed to help your nervous system sync with the energy of the herd, setting the tone for deeper presence and healing.

9:15 AM-Sound Therapy with Gloria Pavlik (45 minutes)
Relax into a sound healing session with crystal singing bowls, guided by Gloria Pavlik. This form of vibrational therapy uses harmonic tones to calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and support emotional and physical well-being. Let the soothing frequencies guide you into a meditative state.

10:00 AM-All-Levels Flow Yoga with Cynthia Bass (60 minutes)
Enjoy a gently-paced, all-levels yoga class that blends several yoga styles into a flowing sequence that promotes full-body relaxation, gentle stretching, and mindful movement. No experience necessary-modifications will be offered throughout.

Why Horses?

Horses have naturally large electromagnetic fields and the ability to sync their heart rhythms with those around them: a survival mechanism in the wild, and a healing presence in therapeutic settings. When we engage with horses in a calm, intentional space, it helps guide our own bodies into a state of coherence, which reduces stress, balances emotions, and is scientifically proven to lower cortisol levels.

Simply being in the barn and around the herd encourages grounding, mindfulness, and a return to our natural rhythm.

Not sure about being near horses?
No worries! There will be designated areas where you can enjoy the experience without direct interaction with the horses. We want everyone to feel safe and comfortable.
