THE KNOLL FARM

HorsEmpowerment is all about the healing, teaching and transformation process of life champions, which happens when we spend time making a heartfelt connection with the kindness and the authenticity of a horse. That said, we partner with horses, because they are instinctively wise whereas they have a 6th sense and know if you are happy or sad, optimistic or depressed before you do. Horses don’t judge you nor do they lie; rather they speak to you non verbally and mirror the truth about who you are, how you show up and where you are in your life. They showcase your gifts, imperfections, vulnerabilities and wounds. They address your contradictions and empower you to let go of the core patterns and obstacles within that are holding you back. Horses meet you where you are at, they then teach, test, awaken and heal you. They bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be in your life. Horses empower you to maximize your potential to be your best. Horses teach us the gift of vulnerability and how to conquer our fear by being in the presence of a huge powerful animal and they empower us to experience a profound deep connection that teaches us to once again trust. Horses teach us non verbal communication and emotional intelligence and they have the power to quiet your restless mind so that you live in the moment and open your heart to unconditional love to empower you to run free with your loved ones.

Horses are masters of congruency. Learning from the herd infrastructure and horse social structure we can master these insights and integrate them into our social structure and leadership models in the corporate world and global community. We can take these powerful lessons from herd culture and help “Bridge the Gap of Perceived Differences” creating a unified approach across borders and religions. Herd wisdom inspiring you to for find your PEACE within so you can hold the space for a more peaceful world . . . be the change.

Gillian Vallis the Founder of Pine Knoll invented Harmony, a riding simulator unlike any other that integrates equine movement to release mental, emotional & physical imbalances for those dealing with severe traumatic experiences. The rhythmic movement regulates the vagal nerve, enhances balance and promotes relaxation and is a safe way for those who have had trauma to conquer their fear.
