December Workshop
Art Therapy with Horses
With Arts Psychotherapist and Sexologist Edie Bartley
With Equine Somatic Arts practitioner Claire Alexandria
What does the workshop involve?
Spend time among a horse family herd, held and facilitated by Claire, while Edie gently guides us through art therapy processes exploring the themes of Listening and Softening. Together, we’ll experience the powerful and playful presence of the horses and the motion of creative expression, delving into our inner world with curiosity. The horses, an attuned and spirited herd, offer their quiet, steady wisdom and provide immediate biofeedback as we slow down, deepen our awareness, and lean into what arises, while the art making provides a space to give form to our experience.

We will gather at 9 am sharp and begin with a safety introduction to being with horses in this environment, followed by a session walk-through and grounding meditation. From there, we’ll move into art making and time with the herd. We’ll then shift into a reflective practice and close with either quiet integration or an opportunity to share within the group.
