Welcome tomichon hwh Healing with Horses…

We are currently taking applications for the summer sessions of Healing with Horses. This powerful experience combines equine-assisted activities with grief support for kids and teens ages 5 to 18, and provides a nurturing environment for expressing feelings, learning about grief coping strategies and exploring the healing process with peers who are also grieving a death loss.

Through Healing with Horses, grieving kids and teens:

  • Develop or improve equine skills
  • Work together in a safe and supportive setting, gaining trust in themselves and each other
  • Learn to control a horse, affording them opportunities to feel a genuine sense of accomplishment, greater confidence and inner strength
  • Share stories and memories, have fun and release physical and emotional energy
  • Become aware of the many aspects of the grieving process, and discover what will help and support them

When:        Runs through the fall on Tuesdays, from 5-6:30 p.m.

Location:  Medicine Horse, 8778 Arapahoe Road, Boulder CO, 80303 

Register:   Call Michon Davies 303-604-5330,

Pre-registration is required to participate.
