Rooted: A Nervous System Reset
Where horses, healing sound, and the Blue Ridge Mountains meet.
I've watched horses do something I can only describe as a gift. A woman walks into the pasture with the wait of something in her life pressing in, her shoulders up, breath shallow, eyes busy. Then in a just a few moments, something shifts. A horse moves close. Her breathing slows to match the horse’s. Her shoulders drop and her eyes soften. She didn't do anything. The horse just... what? Maybe offered a different way of being, showed regulation, and her body accepted and released somehow.
That's what this experience is is built around. We combine that with therapeutic sound — singing bowls and tuning forks that work directly with the nervous system — and three unhurried hours on the farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
When? Saturday, June 20, 9:00am - Noon
Where? Mountain Spring Farm in Burnsville, NC
✦ Small group of 8–10
✦ Sound bath + equine presence work + gentle movement and integration circle
✦ No horse experience necessary
Traveling in? Mt. Mitchell Eco Retreat is a mile from the farm — we love sending people there to extend the exhale.
Note that in the event of rainy weather, this may be rescheduled.
Summer program just for girls!

Next Open Session: May 9, 2026
10:00am
$55 per person
Mountain Spring Farm in Burnsville, North Carolina
Facilitated by Julie and the horses, Nate & Cloud
No horsemanship or riding involved in this experience.
Adults and children 10+
Limited to 5 participants
This experience is an intentional time and space to be in nature and tune in to our senses and settle into presence with horses.
Being with horses in this way offers a chance to glimpse a different paradigm for experiencing life that is multidimensional and focused on sensory experiencing and connection with your heart — not locked in the patterns of the mind.
There will be chairs available, but you’re also invited to bring whatever makes you most comfortable for sitting or being on the ground during the experience.
In case of inclement weather, this will be rescheduled for another weekend.
