Leslie Carlson, author of Kinship with Horses, helps the rider learn to communicate
with their horse as a partner. She translates what the horse is communicating
to their human partner by learned responses and body language as well as what
the rider is communicating to their horse with programmed words, thoughts and
body language. She helps the rider learn to transform his/her thoughts by de-programming
learned behavior that is blocking their ability to have clear open communication
with the horse as a partner. The rider learns to retrain his/her thinking to
allow for transformations in their relationships.

The
Relationship Retreat focuses on the subtle energetic components of
relationships in order to develop more effective and compassionate
communication. In the retreat we examine the concept of projection and the role
it plays in our inner actions with horses, others and ourselves.
The weekend long retreat on the farm bring the horse and
rider back to a basis of having fun with each, relaxing and enjoying their time
together taking quiet peaceful trail rides in the environment the horse enjoys
most, nature.
Individual sessions with Leslie Carlson also available by appointment if it is not during a retreat.
MASSAGE THERAPY. Co-host Carl Lindgren, a
certified massage therapist, is available on site. Massage is included in the weekend retreat.
