EEL Training in Sonoma California

As promised in the last blog posting I am going to give you a little bite into what I am doing.  This past weekend I went to Sonoma California to attend my first of 4 training workshops to become a Equine Experimental Learning (EEL) facilitator.  Essentially that means I will be able to put on personal growth workshops that utilize horses as teachers.  Some of the concepts covered are boundaries – yours & others, increased awareness of body language, identifying and accessing the messages behind your emotions, plus many more.  I attended one of these workshops last fall and was really amazed by the change that took place in my life.  Hence I am training to be able to pass down this wonderful experience to others.  

I am just starting to think of a loose business model for this like coming up with a name, developing my own set of workshops, where they will take place, etc.  Look for more bits of information as I progress in my training.

Here are a few pics from the weekend.  I wish I would have had more time to drive around and take more photos – it was so spring like there with the hills green & beautiful vineyards full of mustard growing in between the vines.  The weather was a bit raining & cloudy but it was very much welcomed after the last couple of inversions we have had.  Enjoy!
