EQUINE-ASSISTED SUPPORT
FIND YOUR HORSEPOWER!
WHAT IS EQUINE-ASSISTED SUPPORT? EAS is a horse assisted intervention developed by Marianne Disipio. It combines supportive guidance and life coaching to individuals experiencing a variety of emotionally difficult issues with the introduction of soulful self-care practices for coping with new and ongoing life challenges.
EAS is a practice that helps individuals gain insight into their thoughts, beliefs, communication, relationships, and habits that may be impacting their lives in non-helpful ways. Through professionally guided interactions with horses on the ground, sessions are designed to allow for transformational personal experiences. The purpose is to apply new self-discoveries and learning into real life challenging situations that are showing up in your life.
EAS is a practice that provides emotional support to individuals who are taking charge of their own wellness. It is client focused and we work in equal partnership. It is not a mental health treatment and these sessions are private (one-on-one) with me and the horses. Scientific research supports the use of equine-assisted interventions to increase self-awareness, reduce stress, and promote general wellness.
HorsePOWER: refers to one’s sense of fortitude and desire to live with vigour despite challenges!
