Equine Energy - Horses for Healing Equine Energy is a collaborative team facilitating a better understanding of self and growth towards a fulfilled life.

We practice Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) which promotes self discovery, healing and development through interaction and activities with horses. Taking individuals and groups out of the traditional setting and introducing them into an environment where all senses are used to learn and process through any challenges being faced. This process is facilitated by a team of professionals to ensur

e a safe environment. Our sessions are structured therapeutic interactions between an individual or group, and horses. These sessions incorporate carefully selected activities which invite the horses into the therapeutic process, allowing for congruent, non judgemental interaction. The natural settings and interactions encourage individuals to process their challenges in their own unique way, ensuring specific progress and healing according to each individuals needs. We offer our sessions from equestrian centres in Stellenbosch and the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town. These equestrian centres offer a peaceful and safe environment for individuals and groups to connect with the horses and nature.

🕊️ Mindfulness and Grounding with Horses

A Morning of Presence and Connection

📍 Tokai
🗓️ 26 April
🕰️ 10am to 1pm

“In the horse’s eyes, we find solace and our troubles melt away; in their presence, we find sanctuary and our spirits soar.” — Patricia Atchison

Join us for a calming morning in nature where horses become our guides in presence. Through mindfulness, breathwork and somatic practices, we will gently explore ways to manage stress and anxiety and reconnect with the body.

✨ Experience:
• Mindfulness and breathwork
• Somatic grounding tools
• Time with a peaceful herd
• Space to reflect in nature

All are welcome—no horse or meditation experience needed, just a willingness to pause and be present.

Facilitated by Tara du Plessis (HPCSA) and Bronwyn Taylor (EAPISA)
