FIRST FRIDAY
Herd Meditations
A quiet couple of hours in the company of horses.
Relax, restore, and reflect by attending a Herd Meditation at Red Horse Center in Fennville, MI.
Herd Meditations offer peace, quiet, fresh air, and some time to slow things down with a supportive herd of horses.
The herd meditation consists of small groups of people gathering together, with optional introductions followed by a brief, calming meditative exercise. Participants are then invited to join the herd at their own pace and at whatever distance feels comfortable. As we regather, short reflections are shared. No horse experience is required.
First Fridays
4-6 pm
NURTURING YOUR HERD
Join the herd while learning and engaging in supporting them. Activities may vary, and include aspects of grooming: like brushing, bathing, hoof-picking and other methods.
October's session will lean into Horses for Mental Health's Horsetober theme of "Pass the Braid", by brushing and braiding tales and manes.

Participants engage with us either through individual sessions, educational workshops, team retreats, or custom-tailored programs.
