Sometimes regulation starts with something simple.
Slow hands. Gentle pressure. Steady rhythm.

This is one of our favorite therapy tools at the barn.
I’ll be sharing a short mini-lesson soon on why this works — and how to try it at home (no horse included)

If this felt calming, feel free to share it with someone who might need a quiet moment today

FRIDAY FUNNY!

The horses asked to make holiday wish lists…

Each list reflects their personality, quirks, and what brings them comfort — because connection starts with being seen, even in small, playful ways.

Stick around for the end to see what they wished for you. 🤍

Barnside Healing & Horseplay

A new series straight from the barn… where therapy, learning, and a whole lot of horse personality come together. 🐴

In this series, we’ll be sharing a wide variety of content, including:

🌿 Strategies to help regulate emotions — for kids and adults.
🤝 Simple ways to build connection — both here at the barn and at home with your own family.
🐎 Understanding horse emotions — what they feel, how they show it, and what we can learn from them.
👀 How horses respond to different stimuli — and how their reactions can mirror our own nervous systems.
💬 Horse communication & body language — plus how tuning into theirs can help us better understand ourselves.
😂 Silly barn life — the goofy moments, unexpected chaos, and the personality quirks of our herd.
🪵 Behind-the-scenes horse care — feeding, training, health, behavior, and the everyday barn routines you don’t always see.

This series blends education, therapy insights, gentle humor, and real-life barn moments to help you slow down, breathe deeper, and learn from the horses right alongside us

We will still be rooting for the bears but this is wonderful 💚

“Being able to come out with these kids that get to spend time with these horses, just build a connection, just no better feeling than that.”

It’s cold, the horses are feeling silly and apparently one of them decided HE should be the one to make the announcement. 😂🐴❄️
He was THIS CLOSE to spilling the beans!

We've been working on something fun, meaningful, and a little playful — and we can’t wait to share it with you.
Stay tuned…

Horses are highly intuitive prey animals, which means they naturally respond to our nonverbal cues, emotions, and intentions. Because of this, they can offer a space to bring forward beliefs, patterns, and unresolved trauma that impact our mental health and relationships.

Horses provide a safe and dynamic environment, where peace and healing come through the relationship facilitated by trained professionals. In that space, people often experience moments of clarity and calm that open the door to real healing.

Calling Local Photographers!

On Course Therapy & Learning is looking for a photographer (or photography student!) interested in capturing special moments at some of our equine and family events next year. We’d love to partner with someone who wants to expand their portfolio, gain experience working with children, families, and animals, and be part of meaningful community programs.

Events include activities like seasonal gatherings such as our Open House Meet the Herd in April, mother's day at the barn, and other community events.

We are hoping to find someone willing to offer discounted rates in support of these experiences since these are low-cost or free events.

If you or someone you know might be interested, please send us a message or email us at info@oncoursetherapy.com for more details
