​

What is Equine Gestalt Coaching?

​

Gestalt is based on the belief that we do the best we can with the awareness we have. The goal is to raise awareness, creating space for greater choice and empowerment.

​

Rather than focusing only on analyzing the past, Gestalt works with unresolved emotions stored in the body—what’s known as “unfinished business.” These stuck emotions often show up as anxiety, reactive patterns, or disconnection.

​

Healing happens through safely releasing these emotions, creating lasting change. While memories remain, the emotional weight is lifted, allowing you to move forward with clarity and ease.

​

Rising Free Retreats Offerings:

​

• Private Equine Gestalt Coaching Sessions one-on-one personalized sessions designed to support individual healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. These sessions offer a safe, compassionate space to process emotions, gain clarity, and reconnect with your inner self.

• Cowgirl Sunset — 4-Week Evening Journey

​

​

                 $160 per person | Limited to 12 spots 

​

Cowgirl sunset is a 4-week beginner's self-discovery course designed to help you reconnect with your body, understand your nervous system responses, and build a deeper sense of safety and peace. You'll explore how your body and mind react to stress and challenges — through the lens of nervous system mapping — so you can navigate life with more awareness and choice. 

​

Together in a supportive group, you'll:

• Learn why your body reacts the way it does (because of what happened to you).

• Create your own personalized nervous system map as a lifelong reference tool. 

• Practice nervous system regulation techniques. 

• Restore your connection to your body and cultivate self-compassion. 

​

Each week introduces a new grounding practice designed to help you feel at ease, reduce tension, and deepen your sense of safety and belonging in your own skin.
