Peace During the Holidays Workshop

November 23 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

DATES/TIMES

November 23, 2024

COURSE FOCUS

Creating compassionate connection with self and others to step into your most fulfilling life, supported by therapist and equine partners to find purpose and pleasure while coping with life’s stressors, especially around the holidays.

 

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Experience tranquility and joy at our Peace in the Holidays Workshop, just in time for Thanksgiving! Join us for a heartwarming gathering with the Peace Ponies, where you’ll unwind and embrace the spirit of gratitude amidst nature's beauty. Connect with others, engage in mindful activities, and cherish moments of serenity as we prepare for the holiday season ahead

Pine Knoll workshops are for women who are ready to transform. For a day, we take a break from the hustle of daily life to find greater connection to ourselves and our equine partners, fostering more self-compassion, awareness of how the world impacts our sense of self and well-being, how our connection to animals and self leads to joy & pleasure, making small steps to a life of thriving.

In this immersive experience, you’ll embark on a journey of self-discovery guided by a skilled facilitator. Through a series of experiential exercises, reflective discussions, and hands-on interactions with our gentle horses, we’ll focus on:

  • Cultivating compassion and empathy in your interactions through mindfulness and
    meditation.
  • Fostering a deeper connection with yourself, others, and the world around you
    through body scans and insightful conversations
  • Harnessing your innate purpose with confidence and grace.
  • Embracing vulnerability as a source of strength and authenticity to forge authentic
    connections.
  • Enjoying the pleasure of eating good food, playing games or other fun activities, arts
    & crafts
  • Connecting safely with equine partners through activities, mindfulness exercises, and
    interactions.

Whether you’;re a seasoned equestrian or have never set foot near a horse, this workshop is designed to meet you where you are on your journey.

Come join us for a day of inspiration, transformation, and connection as we embark on this empowering journey together. No horse experience necessary – just an open heart and a willingness to explore the depths of your own potential.

Spaces are limited, so reserve your spot today and step into your role as the protagonist of your own story!

 

ABOUT FACILITATOR

Leslie Cashion, LMFT is a licensed therapist and life-long equestrian. She is uniquely suited to assist you on a journey of discovery of self in partnership with equines in nature. Her priority is connecting with you to collaborate on your journey of healing and self-discovery. She believes we each have answers to our struggles inside of us and sometimes it takes a helpful human or equine guide to discover the pathway to healing. She wants to help provide a safe place to explore who you have been, who you are, and who you want to be in partnership with our equine friends.

 

Leslie is a feminist, healing-focused, equine assisted psychotherapist who works with individuals, couples, teens, kids, and families. In the office she partners with Nugget her canine therapy partner and in the barn she partners with equines. Before becoming a therapist, Leslie was a professional carriage driving coach and trainer up to the FEI level, but loved working with equines and students at all levels. Most recently, she is passionate about relationships with animals, studying Freedom Based Training and Choice Tribe.
