Retreats

So, are you up for a truly life-altering, deep-dive into a healing experience like no other?

Join us at Border Mountain for one of our healing retreats. The setting is nourishing and restorative all by itself! Add in lovely experiences with our beautiful horses, learning about our fears and finding our courage with these gentle teachers.

Border Mountain retreats are NOT for you if:

  • Are not ready to look at deeper issues to find what you can do to heal
  • You believe everyone else is to blame for the pain you have been experiencing
  • You don’t really want to change anything about your life

Border Mountain retreats ARE for you if:

  • You are curious about what it would be like to feel energetic, alive, and passionate again
  • You are longing for the kind of change that heals your spirit and nourishes your soul 
  • You are ready for a soul connection with like-minded others on a journey of discovery that leads you back to your own heart

Forest Therapy

Time in the forest brings a level of calm and serenity that can’t be found in any other way. We combine daily forest therapy excursions with the other parts of our program to make sure our brains are relaxed and feel safe to be able to absorb the lessons of the day.

Equine Therapy

We use horses in our healing programs at Border Mountain because they are the best healing partners you can find. Most of the work we do with the horses is on the ground and involves special activities that foster communication and bonding with your horse.

Art Therapy

To bypass the left brain and its protectors and allow the emotions to surface, we use art therapy in all our programs. We use color in the form of paints, crayons, markers, and colored pencils to express feelings that have been hidden from our consciousness. No artistic talent is necessary.

Extras

During our regularly scheduled retreats, you can also sign up for a relaxing, rejuvenating massage or a private EMDR / IFS session to further enhance the healing work you are doing. To schedule these extra activities, go to the sign-up form and indicate what you want to sign up for in the box provided. We will find a slot for you as scheduling allows. Each attendee is allotted one massage and one counseling session per retreat. It’s not required, but we think you will be glad you did!
