Spotlight on Human Trafficking: National Human Trafficking Awareness Day Feb. 28

by The Mane Intent | Feb 28, 2024 | Muse from The Round Pen

We have spots available for our next workshop: At We have spots available for our next workshop: At the Threshold of Light: A Spring Equinox Journey with Horses and Expressive Arts. Sunday, March 22, 2026. $60 per person. 1-4 pm. Join us as we honour the moment when light and dark are in balance, and consciously choose what we will grow. The equinox is a moment of balance between what has been and what is becoming. Many life transitions live here — not fully released, not yet formed. We’ll explore how to be present in that threshold. This is an opportunity to: deepen your connection to the natural world and seasonal cycles; experience horses as sentient beings of balance, presence and authenticity. You will engage in a ground-based, non-riding experience, with emphasis on choice and observation; support personal reflection on emergence, transition, growth and intention; and integrate body, heart, and imagination through expressive arts. No previous art or horse experience is required. This is a small group gathering. The equinox is a threshold, not a destination. Balance between light and dark is dynamic, not static. Growth begins below the surface before it becomes visible. Email jgarland@themaneintent.ca to register.

Next step is a consultation with an equine dental surgeon. Send some positive thoughts to Summer this week as we navigate the latest challenge and support her healing. Shout out to Gilson Equine and @peterboroughveterinaryservices for your support. #haflinger #equineassistedtherapy #equinedentistry #summer
