Facilitated Equine Experiential Learning

A Unique Path to Self-Discovery

Nestled in the serene setting of Lynden, Ontario, Horse&Hands invites you to embark on a transformative journey at Meadowlark Farm. Here, we offer private and group FEEL sessions, Equine Therapy, and a variety of equine-related workshops, designed to reconnect you with your mind, body, and spirit through the intuitive wisdom of horses.

Facilitated Equine Experiential Learning

Experience the power of FEEL, a unique program where horses teach you to live more authentically. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to lose touch with ourselves, leading to stress and emotional imbalance. Our horses guide you back, helping you to experience the present moment more fully and understand the messages behind your emotions.

Horses as Mirrors

Our horses are sensitive beings that reflect back to us what we're feeling, often without our conscious awareness. They communicate in subtle but profound ways—rolling to show vulnerability, yawning to release stress, and more. By observing and interacting with them, you gain deeper insights into your own behaviors and emotions, guided by their innate wisdom.

Grounded Learning

With Horse&Hands, there's no need for prior horse experience or riding. Our sessions are conducted on the ground, allowing for direct and meaningful interaction. Through various experiential exercises, you'll be led by these wise beings, opening up pathways to self-awareness and personal growth. Discover who you truly are, with the gentle guidance of our horses.
