Heartland Wellness - Journey With Horses

Heartland Wellness - Journey With Horses "EAL (Equine Assisted Learning) Defined"
What is EAL? To put it simply, Equine Assisted Learning is a learner based educational experience with horses. How?

Equine Assisted Learning program in Calgary, AB facilitated by certified instructor Jeremy Mielke and co-owner Kristen Olson

Positively impacting lives through objectively driven programs while keeping the welfare of the horse at the base of what we do. More specifically, EAL is an effective approach to human development that encourages individual and team growth. Participants engage in objectively driven exercises and find themselves learning valuable life skills in a fun and exciting atmosphere while working with horses. EAL has proven to be affective, powerful, positive, educational and creative. HEARTLAND WELLNESS emphasizes it's "building block" curriculum of facilitating life skills through positively reinforced interaction with horses. Exercises are developed to encourage self-confidence through validated, hands-on experiences. Current research has found this experiential form of learning to be most effective. Why Horses? These amazing creatures are tough and steadfast dance partners. They consistently react to stimulus provided by participants. One of the joys associated with working around horses is that they don't judge but they constantly assess. Their feedback is honest and instant. Learning to listen to what horses have to say is powerful and can sometimes spur the answer to individual change. By including them in specifically designed educational exercises, equine-assisted facilitators have greatly multiplied the participant’s rate of success to self-discovery. Horses can magnify an individual's problem immediately and provide a skilled facilitator with an opportunity to identify an individual's character. Horses do not overthink a participant's motive but do challenge their behavior and leadership. Horses can provide facilitators with a window into the participant’s personality through their intuitive nature and innate sensitivity. As facilitators listen to a horse’s non-verbal communication, together they have the ability to walk participants through obstacles to find life-altering changes.

As much as we feel it sometimes, none of us actually go through life alone. In fact, we’re constantly interacting with others... whether it be with family, on social media, at work, in the office or even doing a simple daily errand in the presence of other people.

Very commonly we get caught up in our own busyness and almost forget how to truly be “present” with one another. Instead, our lives are completely made up of what we say they’re made up of rather than just taking things or people for what or who they really are. We’re talking the kind of present that allows us to not have to live in the past or the future for that matter and truly alter who we’re being in the moment in order to make a difference in our lives and for others.

Imagine, you and your company/business partners or you and your family discovering what’s actually “missing” all while working alongside a horse!

Here at Heartland Wellness, it really is incredible how horses can teach us about ourselves and help us to recognize just that, PLUS a whole new perspective on what it is to live.... how to be a leader in our own lives and how to have impactful and meaningful relationships.

To book your company/team or family sessions, message us to begin your journey!

Happy Stampede everyone! 🤠 We hope everyone is celebrating it in their own way in whatever that looks like this year.

This was a fun day, last summer Maddi got to work on a music project with the Calgary Stampede Queen in a music video.

To be honest, Maddi still talks about it and sometimes Molly gets jealous but luckily they have the tools to work it out.

We’re so thrilled to finally announce Maddi had her baby! “Maddi’s Nashville Star” 💫 Baby “Nash” was born May 30th aroun...

We’re so thrilled to finally announce Maddi had her baby!

“Maddi’s Nashville Star” 💫

Baby “Nash” was born May 30th around 11pm. So far he is looking like a solid Palamino with a star and a heart shaped snip...go figure!
Both mom and baby are healthy and happy and we couldn’t be more excited!

Within the first 24 hours we were imprinting him, desensitizing and getting him used to touch. He has also already had his halter on and didn’t seem to mind much.

This little one is already teaching us so much! More to come but right now we are just in awe!

◽️Today’s Tuesday and that means we run programs between 5-730 for families and couples. We are able to social distance and have masks available.

◽️Join us and our teachers (horses) in this new way of self discovery in a relaxing and encouraging environment.
Whatever it is that you’re wanting to discover or work on with your family or individually WILL be accomplished! Why? Because horses have an inability to lie!

Email or message us to be booked into a session!

Meet Molly, one of our teachers! Molly is an appendix mare which means she is half quarter horse and half thoroughbred. She came to us from Northern Alberta and was originally born and raised out of Oklahoma to be a race horse. Although not destined for the track, this gentle soul is very driven, aware and in tune with people's surroundings. As a lead mare, Molly often takes the night shift in order to ensure the herd's safety. It takes a strong leader to work with this girl. That being said, just as she does it's important to demonstrate confidence, capability and openness. While her life started at the gate, she now enjoys the simpler things in life. One of the most intuitive and genuine creatures you will ever meet. This is Molly.
