Developing confidence, courage and connection in partnership with horses.
At Paths To Purpose we offer powerful opportunities for personal growth and transformation through experiential learning with horses.
​
Our mission is to enable individuals to reconnect with their innate wisdom, truth and purpose within a safe space that fosters naturally therapeutic horse-human connections.​
Live online supported program
One of the most invaluable gifts that horses provide is a pathway back to our authentic self..... the place of deep calm, truth and innate wisdom that eludes our conscious minds.
Breathe offers the opportunity for powerful self-transformation to take place - beyond the stable gates - by harnessing life lessons, energy practices and meditations inspired by the wisdom of the horse.
​
This online course provides an invaluable framework, for those already connected with horses, supporting loved ones who are, or those who know the divine truth - that we are all so much more than the story we tell ourselves and others.
ABOUT
Profound self-awareness and life-changing breakthroughs
Immense shifts and deep personal breakthroughs are achieved by partnering with horses who, unlike humans, cannot judge, criticise or hold grudges.
In this unique learning environment, participants are empowered to let go of inhibitions, to embrace their authentic self and experience true mind, body and soul coherence.
OUR TEACHINGS
The Wisdom of the Horse
The magnificent horse has long been reputed as being able to lift our spirits by simply being in their presence. Now researchers at the HeartMath Institute, have confirmed that the horse can quite literally "touch our hearts," calm our minds, and increase the levels of serotonin (happy hormones) released into our bodies.*
​
As prey animals, horses are naturally gifted with sharp instincts, astute senses and a keen awareness of their surroundings. They are therefore able to discern very subtle differences in energies and attitudes - thus providing us with clear feedback about how we are showing up.
​
Horses are also masters of authentic communication - and can clearly detect when our feelings, thoughts and intentions do not align with our actions.
Horses carry the wisdom of
healing in their hearts and offer it to any human who has the Humility to Listen
- Allen & Linda Anderson

How working with horses helps
By working with horses, we receive the unique and invaluable opportunity of unmasking subconscious habits, beliefs and energy patterns that may be holding us back. We are then able to "practice" a more authentic , effective and powerful way of being - with a partner who responds without malice, judgment or emotion.
Invaluable life skills and personal strengths can be developed by partnering with a horse in a team environment.
​
At Paths To Purpose it is our privilege to hold space for humans and horses to connect, evolve and thrive.
