Today I stood beneath the Mayan Tree of Life. Under its tall majestic trunk and towering branches, I could feel the trees breath fill me with prana, life force energy. Isha, our magical white unicorn, came to stand in stillness near me. We stood side by side rooted in the Earth, breathing with the land.
The Mayan tree of life is known as a portal of grounding, protection and deep remembrance
As I listened, I remembered. As Isha listened, our energies aligned, memories were awakened and balance was restored.
The tree held us and in that moment something ancient was remembered, in me, in him, in all of us

Where wild horses run, the spirit remembers.

My journey to Turkiye wasn’t something I planned.
It happened to me.

The land opened me.
The horses mirrored me.
And something I had forgotten quietly returned.

Now, I find myself wanting to walk again on that land…
and to ride there…
not alone.

Not to teach.
Not to lead.
But to share.

To move together with the horses.
To listen to the land.
To sit, breathe, laugh, feel, and remember side by side.

If you feel a gentle yes in your body,
I would love to walk with you.
To ride with you.
To share the path.

No expectations.
Just presence.

Are you open to remembering
together?
Are you ready to soften,
to surrender,
and to become you?

If this touches something in you,
you’re welcome to quietly explore what we’re creating.

You can visit our page
https://horses.yoga/turkiye

and simply feel into it,
see if it resonates for you.

And if it does,
perhaps we’ll walk and ride together.

Meet Isha
Our white unicorn.

Isha is the horse who stands with me when we hold sacred space, when we enter what I call harmonizing and attunement sessions. These are not about fixing or removing anything, but about creating space, opening the field, balancing and aligning energies so that healing can arise naturally from within.

Isha is a horse of Fire, very pitta in nature, powerful, expressive, and full of determination. In the pastures he can be bold and fiery, prancing and strutting with force and presence. In the sea, he dives into the waves with abandon and joy, carried by instinct and pleasure.

And yet…
when an attunement session begins, something shifts.

Isha will leave his grazing and outward activities and walk quietly to the table beneath the Mayan Tree of Life. There, he stands deeply grounded, connected to the Earth, holding the field with calm focus. He feels the energies moving and, in his own natural way, adjusts when and where it is needed. We work together, not directing, not forcing, but listening and responding in harmony.

This balance is what makes Isha so extraordinary:
a very fiery, powerful being who can become incredibly soft, present, and still.

He truly is a unicorn who magically entered my life. I wasn’t looking for another horse. I was helping a friend find one. But then Isha appeared, and he spoke to me so clearly, so deeply, that I could not walk away. There was magic in the air around him, unmistakable.

He is quirky, funny, strong-willed, intense and at the same time deeply cuddly, sweet, and unbelievably lovable. Not a day goes by that I don’t feel grateful and blessed that he found us and chose to walk into our lives.

Though… not all the other horses always agree,
Isha has attitude. He doesn’t take no easily and often wants everyone to do things his way, right now. And yet, somehow, they always find their balance together.

My quirky, fiery little unicorn and his band of brothers are truly something to behold.

Returning to Turkey after more than 30 years was something I could never have prepared for.

What I thought would be a simple return, revisiting a country I once loved deeply, became a profound homecoming of the soul.

Turkey brought back so many beautiful memories. Of family and friends, of long days sailing the Lycian coast, of a younger version of myself shaped by the sea, the sun, and a feeling of freedom I had almost forgotten.

But this return awakened something far deeper.

It stirred something long dormant within me, a remembering that did not belong only to this lifetime.
As if the land itself whispered: you have been here before… many times.

At the end of August last year, I traveled through Turkey on an adventure into places I had never been before. I didn’t go alone. I went with my dear friend Abbas, whom I first met in 2019 when he came to Kindred Spirits to complete his Yoga Teacher Training and Equine Yoga Teacher Program with us.

Over the years, our connection quietly continued, woven through shared values, love for horses, land, and a deeper way of living. When Abbas came to visit last July, a seed was planted.

He carried a vision, to travel the world through horses. But not in an ordinary way.
Not as sport.
Not as tourism.
But as pilgrimage, connection, and remembrance.

He was returning to Turkey to explore, to listen, to discover and invited me to join him.

What unfolded was so much more than we could ever have hoped for.

The land opened.
The horses arrived.
The people welcomed us.
Paths revealed themselves step by step.

And in that journey, something in me shifted forever.

Turkey didn’t just welcome me back,
it reawakened a part of my soul I didn’t realize I had been missing.

More to come…

Connection Comes First

Before we ride, we meet.

We meet the horses.
We meet the land.
And just as importantly, we meet ourselves.

In Turkiye I met horses that I had the privilege to deeply connect with. They were horses that lived their lives as horses and trusted humans, saw them as friends and not masters.

I don’t lead journeys where riding is the starting point.
I lead journeys where relationship is the starting point.

During our travels in Turkiye, I met horsemen, who loved their horses first. I saw the depth of their relationship in the eyes of their horses.

Connection at liberty tells me everything I need to know about a horse’s nervous system, about a human’s presence, about how the two will communicate once movement begins.

Speed, distance, and performance come later. if they come at all.
What matters first is trust.

This is not about proving anything.
It’s about listening.

And when that foundation is there, everything else unfolds with much more ease, and much more safety, for everyone involved.

I’d like to invite you to explore what Abbas, Lexi, and I are creating together, a new way of traveling with horses around the world.

As we enter the Year of the Fire Horse, we feel called to move differently, with more presence, more integrity, and deeper connection between humans, horses, and the land.

These Spiritual Horse Trek Journeys are born from relationship with horses, with land, and with the moment in time we are living in.

As we enter the Year of the Fire Horse, I feel a deep call toward truth, courage, movement, and integrity. This is not an energy that can be rushed or forced. It asks us to move forward in alignment, or not at all.

It is within this frequency that we are offering our first pilgrimages in Türkiye and Morocco, in collaboration with Abbas of Ride into Infinity, and through Kindred Spirits.

These are not traditional horse treks.
They are intentional passages, where how we move matters more than how far we go.

For me, Türkiye is not a new destination.
It is a return.

More than thirty years ago, Türkiye was once my home, a land that shaped my early adult life, my way of seeing, and my relationship with culture, nature, and spirit. I have carried this land in my heart ever since. To return now, in the Year of the Fire Horse, feels like a remembering, a coming full circle into a place that still lives deeply in my body and soul.

The Fire Horse teaches that power without presence creates chaos, while power rooted in connection creates freedom.
For this reason, every journey I lead begins with connection at liberty, allowing trust to form naturally before movement unfolds.

Horses are not tools to me, they are sentient partners.
The land is not a backdrop, it is a living teacher.
And the human journey is not secondary, it is central.

Abbas brings a deep, embodied relationship with the horses, landscapes, and local cultures of Türkiye and Morocco, cultivated through years of living, listening, and working in true partnership with the land and its people. Our collaboration is rooted in shared values, respect, and care for the horses and the land that hold us.

Through Kindred Spirits, I hold an ethical and nervous-system-aware foundation that places safety, respect, and attunement first, for horses and humans alike. In the Year of the Fire Horse, this grounding feels essential. Fire must be held with care, or it burns indiscriminately.

These pilgrimages are for those who feel the call to move forward honestly, not faster, not louder, but truer.
For those who understand that transformation cannot be forced, and that freedom is not taken, it is earned through relationship.

Meet Yogi 🤍
Mashal’s big brother—not by blood, but by love.

Yogi came to us from the mountains of Turrialba, from a large Andalusian Spanish horse ranch where foals are born into nature and grow up running freely across the hills with their mothers. He was just a year and a half old when he arrived, a tall, big bay with long legs and the sweetest, kindest disposition I had ever met… and still have, to this day.

Yogi is kind to all horses and all humans. He does not fight, he walks away. He seeks harmony, not chaos. Balance, not dominance. Fairness in all beings and all situations. He truly lives his name, Yogi, which carries the essence of yoga—union.

From the very beginning, his training unfolded entirely at liberty, no halter, no bit, no saddle. Always with ease. Always with gentleness. Never once did he buck, spook, bolt, or resist. Instead, he chose connection deeply and naturally with us and with those around him.

He was playful with Mashal, tender with the sensitive Pai, respectful of Nahar and Shiloh, and calm and trusting with all humans. He loves positive-reinforcement training and will gently remind me when we haven’t done it in a while. He enjoys learning, playing, and doing things together.

While his nobility, kindness, and gentleness are his greatest gifts, he also carries one of the most extraordinary extended trots I have ever experienced, like floating on a cloud in slow motion.

And then there is the sea.
Yogi loves to swim, drinking the salt water as he glides, circling again and again, gentle waves rolling over his back, blue sky above. With or without a rider, swimming in the ocean and rolling in the sand remain some of his greatest joys.

Yogi is my friend. My partner.
There is deep trust and respect between us, and I believe it is mutual. He is a living example of what true partnership looks like. where nothing is taken, and everything is shared.

Yogi is wise.
Yogi is gentle.
Yogi is divine.

Meet Mashal

Mashal was born here on our farm on October 10th, 2017, during one of our Yoga Teacher Trainings. We were all waiting eagerly for his arrival—so eagerly that a volunteer even slept in the barn at night. But his wise mother, Shad, waited until we had gone to dinner and chose to give birth privately, surrounded by Anya, Shiloh, and Nahar.

Mashal was born that evening at 7 pm. The next morning, students gathered quietly around him in wonder as he stood on his tiny legs.

We held a naming ceremony by the fire, with the herd nearby. Each student and each of us placed a name into a basket. When the name Mashal was read aloud, along with its meaning, we all knew it was perfect.

Mashal grew up deeply loved and protected by the herd. Sensitive and trusting, he also knows how to hold his boundaries. He is not a bully, but he does not allow himself to be pushed. He grew up almost like a brother to Yogi, who joined our family when Mashal was still very young.

Today, Mashal is 8 years old—a big, handsome, deeply sensitive boy. Since the passing of his father, Nahar, the king and leader of the herd, Mashal has matured even more. He moves with great grace and lightness, carries the elegance of an Arabian and the strength of an Andalusian, and holds his place in the herd with quiet confidence.

He is kind and cuddly with those who are gentle and calm, and wary of loud, rushed energy. Mashal loves peace—and teaches it by example.

Mashal’s name means torch—a bearer of light.
Not a fire that burns loudly or demands attention, but a steady flame held with care and purpose.

His light teaches us how to move through the world with sensitivity and strength, with openness and clear boundaries. He shows us that true power does not push, and true gentleness does not disappear.

Mashal reminds us that we are allowed to love deeply, trust softly, and still protect our inner peace. That calm is not weakness. That presence is a form of leadership. That light, when held in integrity, naturally guides others.

This is the gift Mashal offers, to the herd, to the land, and to all who cross his path.
A quiet illumination.
A living reminder of how to walk with grace.

I’d love to begin sharing a little about the horses who walk alongside us here at Kindred Spirits

Each horse carries their own presence, personality, and wisdom. They are not here to perform or to be used, they are companions, teachers, and mirrors.

Over time, I’ll introduce them one by one, not through labels or training titles, but through who they are, how they move, how they listen, and what they reflect when we slow down enough to notice.

If you’ve ever felt that horses speak without words, you’ll understand this space.

“Horses do not ask us to become more.
They invite us to become present.”

At Kindred Spirits, we believe connection is the doorway to the horse, to the land, and to our own divine awareness.

Feel free to like, share, or simply pause with this message.
And if you feel called, say hello in the comments.

At Kindred Spirits, we walk a path of connection.

Our work with horses is not about dominance or technique, it’s about relationship. About listening, breath, mutual respect, and the language of energy that horses naturally speak.

Through shared time with horses, yoga, meditation, and immersion in the land, we create spaces for people to reconnect with themselves, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The horses are our teachers in this, gently reflecting presence, honesty, and coherence.

Over time, I’ll be sharing more about what we offer, retreats, trainings, pilgrimages, and simple moments of insight from life lived alongside horses.

If this resonates with you, you’re in the right place 🤍
Feel free to follow along, ask questions, or share what brought you here.

Hello dear ones 🤍

It feels good to be here again.
I’ve been quiet on this page for a long time, but my heart has been gently calling me back, to reconnect, to share, and to open a space for conversation once more.

For those of you who have been part of this community for some time, thank you for being here.
And for those who are new, welcome. I’m truly happy you’ve found your way here.

Kindred Spirits was born from a deep love for horses, for the land, and for the quiet wisdom that reveals itself when we slow down and truly listen. Our work is rooted in connection rather than control, presence rather than performance.

Through time with horses, through yoga and meditation, and through attunement to the energies and frequencies of the land, we explore pathways back to our own divine consciousness, remembering who we are beneath the noise of the world.

Here, I hope to share our lived experiences, what we offer, and the dreams that are still taking shape for the future. Most of all, this is meant to be a space of heart, a place where love and light are extended to humans, horses, and all beings we walk alongside.

If you feel called, please feel free to comment, say hello, or share a little about yourself. I would love to reconnect and get to know you here again.

With love,
Terry 🤍

Our Story

Horses, Treks, Healing,Yoga & Wellness Retreats.

Hi there, I'm Terry Newton. Founder of Kindred Spirits. I created Kindred Spirits out of an unshakable love for horses and a passion for learning and sharing knowledge with all the souls that cross my path. Kindred Spirits itself isn’t so much a place, as it is a collection of moments and ideas shared with all the wonderful people that find their way to me and my horses.

Kindred Spirits is Corinne Aulakh, at first a stranger who I’d been told practiced yoga with her horses, who after a phone call and several YTTs has become one of my closest friends. Kindred Spirits is Nathalie, our first long-term volunteer, who came to us to start our first vegetable garden and is now on her way to working with Cavallia, and still finds the time to Skype us.

Kindred Spirits is Johanna Bolst, the volunteer who warms my heart every time she comes back to us, you’ll see her all over the website making yoga on horses look easy with her beautiful blond dreadlocks. Kindred Spirits is my guests, my daughters, the gardeners, and the list could go on for many pages, but you’re already getting the gist.
