Join me in a conversation where Rosie explains how Equine Facilitated Learning helps you connect with your true intentions, feelings and inner wisdom in the presence of horses. Horses just are. They communicate through subtle language and energy and can help you to honour your own vulnerability. Simply being in a horse’s presence can show us how to listen to ourselves and relax into a similarly calm state of mind. Discover how horses can help you feel clearer in mind and purpose and better able to develop meaningful, healthy relationships.

This is a conversation about community, magic and manifestation. I first met Dorota when, as a newly single parent, I took my young children to a Findhorn Family community holiday in Greece.  Dorota was one of the most skillful facilitators I have met.  In this conversation Dorota talks about Findhorn, honesty and the art of alchemy; her ability to make something appear where there was nothing before!  You can find out more about Dorota on her website: https://www.dorotaowen.com/ and the Miracle Game Dorota talks about is here: https://miraclechoicegame.com/about-james-kelly-and-the-creation-of-the-game/

When Gemma turned 40 she decided that she wanted to change her life, even though she wasn't sure she could.  Slowly she built up to triathalons and in the winter, when most of us are struggling to get out of bed, you might find her paddling along the canal, in the dark, terrified, determined and  jubilant.  Listen to hear her story and if you want to find out more here are two sites she recommended.
