"I am a different woman as a result of your teachings! You have given me a gift that
will change my life and the life of those I love." T.C., North Carolina.


Equinection will begin the 2016 season with “Awakening for Women”. The dates for this workshop are April 7–10 or April 21–24.

It is impossible to ignore the message sent when a 1500-pound horse turns and walks toward you. Perhaps this has never crossed your mind, but Karen Head, founder of Equinection, relies on this certainty to craft self-awareness programs that change lives. With her experienced guidance, people engage with the wondrous spirit of a horse and from this, recognize their inner strength, insight, and wisdom.

Accordingly, a grounding premise of Karen’s work is: Our ability to connect with others depends fundamentally on our ability to connect with our true selves. This level of authentic presence and congruence impacts every aspect of our lives.

Awakening is an Equinection workshop that Head designed specifically for women to deepen self-awareness by building relationships based on integrity and the truth of who they are.

“Horses are prey animals,” Head notes. “They are sensitive to body language, intention, and emotions. Their survival rests on trusting their instincts. Horses, by their nature, are curious, forgiving, and nonjudgmental. These innate qualities create aha-moments when a woman experiences authentic, immediate responses to her emotional and energetic presence.”

Time and again, Head witnesses women experiencing being one with a horse. Head explains, “This is when she identifies and easily releases thoughts and feelings that block her experience of joy. This is when she finds strength in her innocence and stillness within truth. The interaction sheds light on all relationships and inspires profound personal growth.”

“I have learned this one absolute in my work: personal transformation can begin in a moment of sublime connection with a horse. There are no words—just an experience of the truth of who you are. You know yourself as an essential part of the whole, unmistakably reflected in the calm and gentle eye of a horse. In this moment, one fulfills a fundamental human calling to live and interact from all that is beautiful.”
