A Journey into Your Authentic Self in the Company of Horses
Led by Trish Broersma and Robert McDowell, writer, mentor, story-teller.
The Celts are legendary storytellers and horse people. They have always known that sacred portals exist, not just between worlds, but between our daily lives and our authentic lives.
Join us to travel between these worlds with the power, beauty and sensitivity of horses charging our journeys, and guiding us. With them, we will also explore land as sacred space holder and guide to these depths: harnessing the land’s grit, shadows, light, wind and waters.
Together, with the aid of inner journeys, stories and writing experiences, the horses and Brigid’s sacred land will guide us through obstacles to our truest expression in personal writing adventures.
Join us for this first of two transformative weekend writing seminars.
Activities will include
- Stories with horses as ‘actors’;
- Groundwork with horses;
- Journeys through thresholds and portals;
- A visit to Brigid’s sacred waters;
- Writing your authentic Self;
- & a surprise or two!
Riding the Celtic horse is a physical act that can be rather beyond some of us, yet writing the Celtic horse is a mystical, spiritual and emotional journey that anyone can take.
On this journey we will together explore a path of
- Revealing the wisdom & spirit of the Celtic Horse inside you;
- Finding a community of fellow travelers & seekers;
- Beginning a written record that will accompany you and guide you;
- Resourcing yourself through a deeper, alchemical understanding of the natural world, through hands-on experiences with horses;
- Experiencing a dynamic, personal and sacred Brigid blessing;
- Creating a personal talisman that will always connect you to the Celtic Horse.
Writing the Celtic Horse will bring you to:
- Equanimity, peace in the Here & Now, joy;
- The confidence to break through barriers that imprison you;
- Greater insight with regard to your relationships on all levels;
- Renewing your relationship with your witchy, magic-making self;
- Reconnecting with Brigid in some of her manifestations;
- Your powerful, authentic Self.
