Since 1998, Karen has studied and worked with the understanding that the human system is made up of the physical body and the energy systems. By working directly with the energy systems, greater balance and alignment can occur not only for the physical body, but also the emotional, mental, psychological and spiritual aspects of the individual. When a dream came true to have her own horse at the age of 37, Karen unbeknownst stepped onto the path of equine facilitation.
While working with Forest, Karen soon realised how sensitive horses were to subtle changes within the environment around them, including individuals present. Their sensory awareness and responses to external stimuli is incredible, which often highlights aspects and behaviours of ourselves that we are not even aware of. Horses have spent thousands of years in non-verbal communication, mastering the art of reading body language, intentions and, in Karen’s eyes, energy. The more Karen experienced of this state of awareness, the more she could see how it could benefit others as well.
Karen pursued her training with AEFL in 2018 and Groundwork Therapy for more intensive training, delving deeper into working with equine facilitated learning. Through these training modalities and her extensive background with the understanding of energy, Karen and her horses are able to facilitate a powerful space of learning and development about the self. With this, profound, oftentimes personal transformations result, allowing each individual to see and feel who they really are.
Karen is deeply humbled to co-facilitate with some of her greatest teachers – the horse. It is her heart hope that they are able to touch your Soul in the way they have touched and changed hers.
