Natural Freedom Wellness Center

On this Memorial Day, we are reminded of the quiet wisdom found in horse herds. Horses practice mutual grooming — standing side by side, caring for one another, building trust through connection despite differences in rank, personality, or role within the herd.

It feels like a lesson our society still needs.

The men and women we honor today came from different backgrounds, beliefs, and walks of life, yet they stood together in service of something greater than themselves: protecting one another, protecting freedom, and protecting the idea that unity matters more than division.

Maybe healing in our communities begins the same way it does in the herd — with small acts of care, respect, and willingness to stand beside each other.

Today we remember those who gave everything for that ideal. 🇺🇸

In observance of Memorial Day, our office will be closed on Monday as we take time to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. ❤️🤍💙

We are grateful for their service and wish everyone a safe and meaningful holiday.

We will reopen during regular business hours on Tuesday.

“May is nature’s reminder that growth can be beautiful. Flowers bloom, creek sparkles and the world feels alive again.

Take a moment to breathe in the sunshine, listen to the birds, the rain patter on the roof and enjoy the magic of spring! “

How can nature, horses, and the right support system help a teen move from anxiety to confidence?

This a powerful video interview featuring a courageous young adult sharing their journey as a teen, learning healthy coping and relationship skills to manage and overcome anxiety. They discusses their journey through anxiety and how healing began at an equine and nature-based treatment center. Surrounded by peaceful outdoor spaces, meaningful connections with horses, and the guidance of a compassionate treatment team, they discovered new confidence, emotional strength, and hope for the future.
This video explores:
• How anxiety can affect teens emotionally, socially, and physically
• The calming impact of nature-based therapy
• The unique connection between horses and emotional healing
• How equine-assisted therapy builds trust, confidence, and self-awareness
• The role of licensed counselors and the treatment team in supporting healing and growth
• What families can expect from an equine and nature-based therapy program

Through experiential therapy, supportive relationships, and time spent with horses and outdoors, this individual learned they were stronger than their anxiety.

If your family is searching for support, healing, or new approaches to mental health care, this story is a reminder that growth and confidence are possible.

🌿 Healing can begin with connection — to yourself, horse, nature and others.

Grateful to have attended the Spring Mental Health Awareness Summit today alongside so many passionate advocates, providers, educators, and community leaders. 🌱🧠

The day was filled with meaningful conversations, resource sharing, collaboration, and opportunities to reconnect with valued community partners who continue working tirelessly to support mental wellness across our communities.

Events like this remind us that mental health awareness is strengthened when we come together, listen, learn, and build partnerships that create lasting impact. Thank you to everyone who shared their expertise, experiences, and commitment to improving access, support, and hope for those we serve.

(Sorry Kelli, I will work on my photography! Thank you Savannah and Cory!)

Looking forward to continuing these conversations and collaborations beyond the summit. 💚
