RETREATS but so much more...
​This year for the first time, in 9 years of being at Hay Farm and 16 years of providing equine assisted psychotherapy, we are opening the doors to people for a whole day or longer to enjoy this special place and become fully immersed in the power of these horses, who give insight and transform lives. The therapeutic retreats will be a place for people to come together in a supportive environment, explore ideas and feelings and find direction.
We are close to beautiful Bridgnorth, a wonderful area to explore but easily accessible, being in the Midlands.

Harvest Moon
Something very special: equine assisted learning with the herd, focusing on CONNECTION and a fire ceremony with the horses to celebrate the coming full moon. This is a return to our roots in connection to what we have lost, through the horses' natural ways as ancient and wise guides. A harvest fire will be lit to celebrate the bounty of the land.
This will be facilitated by Elaine Noble
4.30 pm till 9.30 dinner and refreshments incl

"That one time with the horses changed my life, I will be forever grateful, I found what I needed to know."
Jess, Oxon
I booked a mindfulness session with Zen Horse with an open mind. The session was incredible! Elaine is a great facilitator and the herd were majestic. From all of all the lovely experiences I had at the festival, the session with the horses stands out the most in my memory: awareness, self-realisation, and a warm hug from the lovely horses is something I cannot stop recommending to everyone. Truly transformative!
HEALING WITH THE HERD
September 27th 2025
A day for shared recovery with guidance from the herd.
Trauma is something many of us have experienced. How do we
connect to ourselves and negotiate a way forward with the scars of
the past? Horses help to heal, centre, support and direct us to our authentic selves, giving faith for the future. The lessons are clear,
real and honest from them. Facilitated by Elaine Noble.
10am-3.30pm
£138.75 before September Early Bird
£185 full price all materials lunch and materials provided.
