Our mission is to allow our clients to disconnect from everyday stresses & enhance wellness. https://eponaretreats.com/9-steps-to-unleash-your-inner-power.

We gently introduce nature and the intuition of horses to connect with your own awareness specifically through horses & Movement Meditations Noreen specialises in women's personal and professional development through equine learning and energy healing and provides Animal Reiki Teachings, Reiki Energy Healing, Equine Therapy, Bespoke Retreats & Meditations at Epona facilitated by her 3 horses, Ruby, Lizzie and Isabel. At Epona Retreat Centre, its unique selling points have proven that the horse's behaviour matches a person's behaviour. During my sessions, the horses change the new carers' attitude and behaviours to become more empowered by listening to their inner wisdom, which brings about the inner power of leadership, gains clarity in their vision of purpose, and builds their confidence and trust in holding space for themselves during uncertain times. Check out my on-line programme where I help professional woman who want to find their purpose, direction and increase confidence through the revolutionary programme that taps into the power of the horses. Ask to join my Private Facebook Group Epona Celtic Goddess of Horses - it is for like-hearted souls who feel pulled to, connect more deeply with their intuition and wisdom, and embrace their spiritual gifts with the energy vibration of the horses and mother nature.

Happy New Moon my Soul Tribe,
On November 19th, the Scorpio New Moon arrives as a powerful invitation to begin again to choose new health, new habits, new ways of being, and even new adventures like immersing ourselves in the healing embrace of the ocean. Scorpio energy asks us to look at life differently, to try something for the first time, and to trust that renewal is possible.
But to step into these new beginnings, we must reach inside for courage.
If there is something you’ve been avoiding whether a truth, a conversation, or a change this New Moon may stir just enough tension to push you toward action, clarity, or release. Open your mind and soften your heart.
Let the outer world quiet down so you can truly listen to what life is showing you. Every New Moon honors what we’ve moved through and rekindles hope for where we’re going. Let go of the fear.
Step into the new.
The Universe is sending waves of support to guide you forward.

Sending you lots of love & light.
Noreen 🩵

My heart is overflowing after October’s Inner Child Retreat weekend here at Epona. Hosting this healing experience and sharing space with such beautiful, like-minded souls - and our incredible horses - has been wonderful.

There’s something truly powerful about the way horses mirror our energy, hold space for our emotions, and gently guide us back to our truth. Watching everyone connect with them, with themselves, and with each other was deeply moving.

Together, we created moments of stillness, reflection, laughter, and genuine connection - a reminder of how healing it is when humans and horses come together with openness and intention.

Thank you to everyone who joined, trusted the process, and shared your hearts. And thank you to our horses - our silent teachers - for grounding us and showing us the beauty of presence. 🕊️

If you feel called to join us next year for the Inner Child Retreat, I’d love to hear from you. Send me a message to be the first to receive details and dates as they’re released - spaces will be limited.

Sending love & light,
Noreen ❤️✨

Happy Super Full Moon my Soul Tribe .

This year’s Beaver Super Full Moon on November 5th adds another layer of significance. As the moon reaches the point closest to Earth it will appear larger and brighter than usual, making it the largest full moon of 2025.

Known as the Beaver Moon, it symbolizes preparation, patience, and gratitude. As the year winds down, it calls us to reflect on what we’ve built, what we’re still holding onto, and what we can now release before entering a new cycle.

Physically, the Super Full Moon influences the neck, throat, larynx, vocal cords, thyroid gland, and tonsils. These areas are more sensitive during this period, so take time to nurture your body rest your voice, keep warm, and speak gently to yourself and others.

The Super Full Moon invites you to reflect:
What are you building?
What do you wish to sustain through the coming winter?
And what can you now release to make space for the new?
Allow any answers to rise gently within you and allow yourself to honor these endings with gratitude.

Sending you lots of love & light.
Noreen 🩵

True connection with a horse begins where fear ends.

It’s not built through force, but through feeling. Through presence. Through trust.

When we let go of fear - the need to get it right, the tension we hold inside - something shifts.
The moment we soften, the horses soften too.
In that space, healing flows both ways.

Horses feel what words can’t express.
They sense our truth, our energy, our hearts - long before we ever take a step.
When we surrender and simply be, they meet us with honesty, peace, and grace.

It’s not about doing - it’s about being.
Being open. Being real. Being willing to receive the quiet medicine they offer. 🤍

23/10/2025

Surrender isn’t giving up - it’s giving in.

It’s the quiet moment when you stop fighting the flow of life and finally let it carry you where you’re meant to go.

When we release control, we make space for peace.
When we stop resisting, healing begins to bloom in the silence.

Surrender doesn’t mean weakness - it means trust.
Trusting that even in the unknown, you are guided.
Even in the stillness, you are growing.
Even in the letting go, you are becoming whole again. 🤍

Welcome the LIBRA New Moon on Tuesday the 21st October.
Under this New Moon we are guided to recharge, reflect, and set intentions for the coming lunar cycle

Libra is the sign of harmony. When the world is spinning and pulling us in different directions, it is the energy of Libra that beckons us to return to our center and to remember that life is all about balance.

At this time of year, we may feel certain pressures looming with growing responsibilities at work and at home. We may be feeling time speeding up and a sense of urgency to complete our to-do lists before the end of the year. Holiday plans may also be on our minds, which can be a source of great stress for many of us.

But under the Libra Sun and Moon, we are called to take a breath and to come back to our center.

How can we forget the noise, release the judgment, and proceed ahead from a place of balance?

Take a moment to consider how creating balance in your life can be real for you. What three simple actions can you take right now to bring more balance into your day?

Your answer will depend on your unique situation, but remembering not to judge yourself or others can be a good starting point to release the grips that keep us out of balance and in a state of energetic disarray.

Release the judgment and watch how balance seems to find its way more seamlessly into your life.

Libra is not only about finding balance but about finding the middle ground. Perhaps we can’t solve all of our problems or get where we want to be just yet, but we can honor the progress we have made and recognize that we are on our way forward.

Finding gratitude for the journey we have walked this year so far can be another powerful way to find our balance.

This New Moon brings some events or energies that allow us to escape from our regular day to day routines. This could be welcomed, or perhaps very stressful! It could be that this New Moon abruptly opens the door to a new pathway that we were perhaps not expecting.

Sending you lots of love & light.
Noreen 🌙

Rediscover Your Inner Child Retreat

I’m feeling so excited as we get ready to gather tomorrow, 17–19 October, at Epona Retreat Centre. 💜

We’ll be coming together to rest, realign, and reconnect with that soft, playful part of ourselves that’s so easy to forget in the busyness of life. Through Tai Chi, Qigong, breathwork, meditation, and gentle creative expression, we’ll allow our energy to flow again - supported by the quiet magic of the horses and the land.🐴🌳✨

Over the weekend we’ll ground through movement and stillness, soothe the nervous system with breath and creativity, and be held by nature in a way that reminds us just how much wisdom and joy we already carry inside.

I can’t wait to share this beautiful space - to slow down, breathe, and remember together. 💫

Sending much love & light,
Noreen ❤️
