Equine Facilitated Experiential Learning

Water Horse Healing Center offers workshops and private sessions covering the basics of the Eponaquest
ApproachTM, personal and professional development, awareness, leadership, and teambuilding.
Our EFEL programs bring horses and humans together to collaborate, on the ground, as a way to enhance human potential and self-awareness. Interacting with horses is a gateway for you to begin to recognize and understand why you do and feel what you do. It is a way for you to get to know yourself in a judgment-free zone where openness, experimentation, and play is not only welcomed, but encouraged! No previous horse experience is needed to participate in any of our workshops or private sessions. There are no riding activities.

Horses and Healing

Picture
Horses are prey animals making them highly sensitive beings, they are also herd animals. They feel the slightest change in emotion and energy of every member in their herd and those around them, especially those of predators. Humans, by nature, are a predatory species. Horses feel how we are feeling and when we are not congruent; when our behavior doesn’t match how we are really feeling. They pick up on our incongruence and it can be viewed as a warning for them to stay alert. They need these crucial instincts for survival. It is these skills that have allowed horses to survive as a species all these years. They can sense the energy and intent of a predator on the prowl from miles away, letting them flee the area before they are preyed upon. 

The horse naturally mirrors and reacts to our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and intentions. This makes them key to personal development. They can outwardly show us thought and behavioral patterns that may be hindering our lives. Horses live strictly in the moment, and they have to for survival. They aren’t worried about what happened at work earlier or what is in store at school tomorrow. They only live in the now. Because of this, the moment you change something within yourself, the horse will change in response. They are true mirrors.
