Our Herd

Meet our healing herd

Our herd are a mixed group horses and ponies of all shapes and sizes, ages, breeds and requirements. There are 7 mares and 4 geldings, ranging from the smallest at approx. 10hh (or 1 meter) to 16.3hh (or 1.7 meters).

Our horses are considered therapists in their own right, they have a lot of different gifts and wisdoms to share with people. When they are working they are generally at liberty so they are free to volunteer their services or not; and there is always learning to be had from a horse that walks away from you. As a counsellor or therapist would professionally consider self care, it is no different for our horses. They have time off without people around and there are a number of complementary therapies between us such as The Equine Touch, Reiki, Zoopharmacognosy, Essential Oil Therapy, crystal healing and sound therapy. They tend to ask for these therapies to shift anything they haven’t managed to themselves by being in a herd, running around, playing and rolling on the ground (Earthing themselves). These are all helpful additions in the pursuit of caring for and keeping our horses healthy, connected and ReWilded.

We won’t say too much more about this wonderful herd, as it is actually all part of the learning experience to come down and meet them yourselves. Although you can keep up to date with all the equine news on our blog posts.
