As the days get warmer and longer we are looking to start our Mindfulness circle events in early May. For 2026 we are considering switching from Wednesday evenings to a Saturday or Sunday morning.. Would be interested if people had preferences. For example:
Saturday 10 am to 11 am
Saturday 11 am to noon
Sunday 10 am to 11 am
Sunday 11 am to noon
Wednesdays 6:30 - 7:30

We run the sessions every two weeks.

This beautiful film captures the profound connection between horses and humans. It is a tribute to the beautiful horses who partner with humanity in EFL work and honours how soulfull, magnificent and worthy of respect they are. Online tickets are available to purchase for $15 USD until April 10th.

While it is not an astronaut and alien buddy film, I have to steal from Project Hail Mary when I say about this film "Amaze. Amaze. Amaze."

Watch through April 10 💛

We had a glitch overnight that caused some of you to lose access or not be able to get tickets. It’s now been fixed.

Because of this, we’ve extended the screening window.

You can press play anytime before April 10 at 11:45pm PDT, and you’ll still have 48 hours to finish.

If your viewing window was affected, email hello@kinema.com and they’ll reset it for you.

We’re still here in the hospital with Dana’s mom, doing our best to respond to everyone, and feeling so much gratitude for all of you 😭

If you’ve been meaning to watch, you still have time.

"On this Easter morning, let us look again at the lives we have been so generously given and let us let fall away the useless baggage that we carry -- old pains, old habits, old ways of seeing and feeling -- and let us have the courage to begin again. Life is very short, and we are no sooner here than it is time to depart again, and we should use to the full the time that we still have.
We don't realize all the good we can do. A kind, encouraging word or helping hand can bring many a person through dark valleys in their lives. We weren't put here to make money or to acquire status or reputation. We were sent here to search for the light of Easter in our hearts, and when we find it we are meant to give it away generously."

Reflections on Horse Protection Day.

Concilium Equorum
A Message for National Horse Protection Day

On National Horse Protection Day, I am sharing a message shaped in devotion to our covenant with horses.

We have walked beside you since the beginning.

We have carried your migrations, your labor, your longing for freedom.
We have stood in your fields and in your myths.
We are part of your becoming.

Across millennia we have incarnated into wild and domesticated lives in service to a sacred covenant between our species. Some of us run free across open plains. Some of us stand in your barns. Some of us guide from realms beyond your sight.

Protection is stewardship.
It is land.
It is ethical care.
It is reverence expressed through action.

Your awakening and our well being are braided together.
The ancient pact still stands.

Listen.
Remember.
Act.

May we keep faith with the covenant.

The full message is also shared on Substack today for those who wish to sit with it more deeply.

I just sent out my February newsletter with some reflections on the year of Fire Horse. I have featured some of Jenny's thoughts on the year ahead. If you are not subscribed to my monthly newsletter you can sign up on the website www.hearthorseconnections.ca

Fire Horse Energy Animates our Ability to Advocate for Others, and for ourselves when we need to, through jumping from idea to idea like a fire burning, until we land on the right thing that unlocks the key to setting us free.

This right thing, can be a guide to illuminate the way for us, as old things that were wrong fall away and new truths are begun.

In acknowledgment of this Lunar Year being the Year of the Fire Horse, I wanted to share this brief video from one of my mentors, Jenny Pim from Ireland.

On this Valentine’s Day, if you could send the love and wisdom of the heart to anywhere, anything or anyone, where are you drawn to send it? February 14 is traditionally a day where people celebrate romantic love yet in recent years it feels it is expanding beyond to celebrate heart connection in all its forms. Don’t let romantic expectations or disappointment leave you feelingthis day isn’t for you . Maybe today you need to tend to your own gentle heart. Join Molly and I, as we shared a quick coherence this afternoon.
