Shinrin Yoku “Way of Strides”
Secondly, a beneficial practice that's gaining in popularity: Shinrin Yoku “Voie des Foulées” (“Way of Strides”).
Sessions will be offered throughout the season, where an immersion in Nature, accompanied by horses and all living things, will enable you to connect with and receive the benefits that Nature, greater than ourselves, can offer us.
Sharing this experience with a horse offers you an even more powerful psycho-corporal approach. In contact with a horse, our senses are called upon even more, and we open up and share with our bodies, our souls and our spirits what the Living can offer us.
On a psychological level, our equine companion will help us to improve our self-esteem, self-confidence, emotional expression and stress management.
Available dates :
- sunday May 4 9am to 12pm
- saturday June 7 3 - 6 pm
This year, give yourself the gift of connecting with nature and horses!
