The summer solstice is an invitation to return.

To the land.
To the body.
To the seasons.
To the light and power we already are.

I heard yesterday the term “nature deficit disorder. That sounds like disconnection from the cycles and rhythms that remind us we belong. From self and home.

This half-day retreat with horses and land is a space to reconnect with nature, honor what has been growing within us, and receive the nourishment of the season.

Through breath, gentle movement, heart-centered practice, solstice ritual, cacao, nourishment, and time with the herd, we will explore freedom as an embodied and relational experience.

Not power over.
Power with.

With the body.
With the horses.
With the land.
With the living field.

We will enter the horses’ space as respectful guests, honoring consent, sovereignty, reciprocity, and relationship.

Freedom: Summer Solstice with the Horses
Friday online preparation: 6:30–8:30pm
Saturday on the land: 4–10pm
Warren, RI
$277 (includes donation to the rescue herd)

Come stand in the light.
Come be nourished by the land.
Come remember your place in the living web. 💚🌞

First day and last day of school for my nephew who graduates tomorrow from high school!!

Congratulations Rivy!!!!! Love you!!! And oh the places you’ll go!!! (Dr.Suess)

Sitting watching a loon swimming up and down the lakeshore about five feet out. Amazing how long they can hold their breath and fun to see where he will pop up.

Several times he emerges in front of me and turns - we meet eye to eye.

He disappears for a bit. Suddenly he rises out of the water fish in mouth. He tosses it up in the air, opens up, and down it goes.

He rises up out of the water flapping his wings perhaps joyfully dancing, perhaps triumphantly as if to say, “I am magnificent.”

You most certainly are, I say back as I stand and flap my wings too.

Some spaces change you quietly.
Others change you all at once.

At our last Freedom Retreat, one participant shared:

“I’m bringing the joy, and leaving shame.”

That moment stayed with me.

This work is not about performance.
It’s about coherence. Presence. Truth.
About softening enough to hear yourself again.

Through embodiment practices, breathwork, horses, land connection, nervous system support, ritual, and community, we create space for what has been held in the body to begin moving again.

And something remarkable happens when people feel safe enough to be witnessed.

They remember who they are.

🌕 Full Moon Freedom Retreat
May 29 & 31
29- zoom, 31 in Warren Rhode Island

A ceremonial retreat experience with horses, land, embodiment practices, and relational healing, and HOWLING!!! ❤️

Two horse + land offerings!!!

I’m so excited to now be offering individual healing sessions on the land with the horses!!

These are not riding sessions or horse-handling experiences. They are ceremonial healing sessions held in relationship with the land, the herd, and the living field of nature.

The horses are never asked to perform. They are met as sovereign beings, and any connection that arises is based on consent, presence, coherence, and the intelligence of the moment.

Private Ceremonial Healing with the Horses & Land
A private in-person healing session held in Rhode Island, with an online preparation call beforehand, time to honor the land, a shamanic/energy healing session, and space for integration with the herd nearby.

Hi! I just published the first post for The Heart Spirit Letters on substack!
This is a new home for essays, prayers, practices, and meditations on shamanic medicine, beauty, embodiment, horses, ceremony, coherence, and the living heart.
A place to remember who we are, together.
I’d love to have you there.

Welcome to the Heart Spirit Letters This is a space for remembrance — for returning to the body, the Earth, the soul, and the deeper truth of who we are.

Part II: The Alchemy of Grief.
A yin and breath-led descent into the heart’s quiet truths.

Where grief softens, and love begins to rise again.
