The Pines At Buckeye Ridge

Veterans, Active Duty Military, First Responders and Your Families — This Day Is For You.

This season, we open our doors and our hearts to the men, women, and families who carry more weight, more responsibility, and more unseen stories than most will ever understand.

You spend your lives running toward the things the rest of the world runs from.

You hold the line.

You protect the vulnerable.

You serve with a courage that asks everything of you, and often asks even more of the people who love you.

At Buckeye Ridge Rescue & Retreat, our entire mission was built with you in mind.

The rescue. The retreat. The future Equine Therapy program we are building from the ground up. It all begins with honoring the heroes who deserve more support, more community, and more moments of peace than they are ever offered.

This is why Buckeye Ridge exists.
To give back in the most meaningful way we can.

Join us for a magical holiday experience created entirely for you and your loved ones:

❤️ THE ROOT CHAKRA: YOUR FOUNDATION FOR SAFETY + STABILITY

If you’ve been feeling ungrounded, overwhelmed, or disconnected from your body… your Root Chakra might be calling for attention.

The Root Chakra (Muladhara) sits at the base of your spine and acts as your energetic foundation.
It’s your sense of safety, security, belonging, and stability both physically and emotionally.

🌿 WHAT THE ROOT CHAKRA DOES

When balanced, you feel:
• Grounded and calm
• Safe in your body
• Confident making decisions
• Connected to the present
• Steady, supported, and secure

This chakra is the “I AM” energy your inner anchor.

⚠️ SIGNS OF AN IMBALANCED ROOT CHAKRA

You may notice:
• Feeling anxious, fearful, or unsettled
• Overthinking or spiraling
• Difficulty trusting
• Feeling disconnected from your body
• Money worries or scarcity mindset
• Trouble setting boundaries
• Feeling stuck or overwhelmed
• Physical tension in the lower back, hips, or legs

When the foundation wobbles, everything above it feels shaky too.

WAYS TO REBALANCE YOUR ROOT CHAKRA

Gentle practices that bring you back home:

1. Grounding in nature

Walk barefoot, sit under a tree, or touch the earth.

2. Breathwork

Slow, deep belly breaths signal safety to the nervous system.

3. Root Chakra affirmations

“I am safe.”
“I am grounded.”
“I belong.”
“My needs matter.”

4. Movement

Stretch your hips, legs, and lower back.
Yoga poses like child’s pose, mountain, or warrior.

5. Nourishing foods

Root veggies, warm meals, protein, red-colored foods.

6. Reiki

Reiki helps release fear, calm the nervous system, and bring energy back into balance—especially in the lower chakras.

❤️ A gentle reminder
You deserve to feel safe, supported, and grounded in your own body. Balancing the Root Chakra is the first step toward deeper emotional and energetic healing.

Fun Facts About Horses & How Reiki Helps After Rescue:

Did you know horses are some of the most emotionally intelligent animals on the planet? Here are a few fun facts that make them even more incredible:

1. They can read human emotions. Horses recognize facial expressions, tone of voice, and even shifts in our heart rate.
2. Their hearts can sync with ours. When we’re calm, their nervous system responds and their heart rate can soften to match.
3. They sleep both standing and lying down. A special “locking” system in their legs lets them snooze safely on their feet.
4. Nearly 360° vision! Their eye placement allows them to see almost the entire world around them.
5. Constant communicators. Every ear flick, breath, tail swish, and step tells a story.

How Reiki Supports Rescue Horses Into a New Home:

Many rescued horses arrive with stress, uncertainty, or past trauma. Reiki provides a gentle, non-invasive way to help them decompress and feel safe.

💛 Encourages the relaxation response
Reiki helps shift them out of “fight or flight” and into a calmer state where their body can finally rest.

💛 Helps them emotionally release
Signs like licking, chewing, yawning, softening eyes, or lowering their head show the nervous system settling.

💛 Builds trust through choice
Reiki is offered, never forced. This empowers the horse an essential piece of healing for animals who’ve had limited control over their lives.

💛 Reduces overall stress
Relaxation-based modalities like Reiki support lower cortisol levels and help regulate the nervous system.

💛 Strengthens the bond with their new humans
A grounded handler creates a grounded horse. Reiki creates a shared space of calm that deepens connection.

For rescue horses, Reiki becomes a bridge:
from fear ➜ to curiosity
from tension ➜ to softness
from survival mode ➜ to safety

Every session whispers to them:
“You’re home now. You’re safe. You can breathe again.”

Wolves remind us that strength and softness can exist together. They’re fierce protectors, loyal family creatures, and vital guardians of our forests.
Where wolves thrive, the land recovers and where the land recovers, life returns.

Fun Facts:
• Wolves mate for life.
• Each pack has a unique “accent” when howling.
• Wolf territories can span hundreds of miles. • Wolves can roam up to 30 miles in a single day.
• Their howls can travel 10 miles across open land.
• Packs aren’t random groups they’re family units.
• Wolves use more than 20 vocal sounds to communicate.

What Is Reiki? And Why Is It So Healing?

If you’ve been curious about Reiki or wondering if it could help you (or your animals), here’s a simple explanation

Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive form of energy healing that supports the body’s natural ability to repair, relax, and restore balance.
It works by guiding universal life energy through the body, helping release stress, tension, emotional heaviness, and energetic blockages.

What makes Reiki special is that it works with the nervous system — calming it, grounding it, and inviting the body into a state of deep rest where healing finally becomes possible.

🌿 Benefits of Reiki for Humans

Reiki can help you:
• Reduce stress + anxiety
• Improve sleep
• Release emotional overwhelm
• Support trauma recovery
• Strengthen intuition + clarity
• Restore balance when life feels heavy
• Deepen grounding and inner peace

Many people describe their session as the first time they’ve truly relaxed in months.

🐾 Benefits of Reiki for Animals

Animals feel our emotions — and often absorb them. Reiki helps them:
• Release stress or fear
• Ease tension and physical discomfort
• Build trust (especially rescue animals)
• Support trauma or past hardship
• Calm anxiety and over-stimulation
• Strengthen the human–animal bond

Reiki is gentle, safe, and can be done with or without touch, making it perfect for sensitive or nervous animals.

Whether you’re seeking calm, clarity, emotional release, or support for your animal’s healing journey, Reiki offers a soft but powerful path back to balance.

If you’d like to experience Reiki for yourself or your animal, I’d love to hold space for you.

Bilateral stimulation music is more than a sound it’s a rhythm your nervous system recognizes as safety.
Left… right… left… right…
Each alternating beat gently cues your brain to soften, regulate, and come back into the present moment.
If life has felt heavy lately, let this be your reminder: your body knows how to find its way back to calm.
You just have to give it the space.

What Reiki Really Does — For Humans & Animals

Reiki isn’t just “relaxation.”
It’s a gentle, nervous-system–supported shift that helps the body return to a state where healing becomes possible for both people and animals.

Here’s what science shows:
When Reiki is received, the body naturally moves into parasympathetic activation — the rest-and-restore state.
This shift has been associated with:
• Decreased heart rate
• Reduced cortisol levels (your main stress hormone)
• Improved vagal tone, supporting emotional regulation
• Deep muscle relaxation
• Heightened sense of safety and grounding

When the nervous system feels safe, the body can finally do what it’s designed to do: HEAL. Animals feel this just as powerfully as humans sometimes even more so, because they’re naturally attuned to energetic and emotional changes.

Benefits for Humans:
• Calms anxiety & emotional overwhelm
• Helps release stored tension and trauma
• Supports sleep, clarity, and emotional balance
• Regulates the nervous system during stressful seasons
• Encourages grounding, presence, and inner peace

Benefits for Animals:
Research in animal behavior and physiology shows that animals mirror human stress and also mirror our relaxation.
Reiki helps them:
• Reduce anxiety, fear, and hypervigilance
• Release emotional weight they’ve absorbed
• Support joint comfort, recovery, and mobility
• Build trust, especially in rescues or trauma survivors
• Settle into a deeper, calmer state of being

Whether human or animal, Reiki creates a communication of safety a quiet invitation that says: You can breathe now. You’re supported. You’re allowed to soften. When energy aligns, everything else begins to shift.

If you’d like to experience this for yourself or support your animal’s healing, sessions are open.

I had the honor of working with this sweet girl recently, and her session was such a powerful reminder of how deeply animals feel and how beautifully they respond when given space to release. Horses carry so much for us physically, energetically, and emotionally.
When they finally exhale, it feels like the whole barn exhales with them.

Thank you again, Sarah, for letting me hold space for Willow. She is pure magic, and I’m honored to be part of her journey.

If your horse or companion animal could benefit from emotional release, grounding, or energetic balance, I’m here to support them too.

✨ For the Empaths Who Feel Everything -Here Are 3 Ways to Ground Your Energy ✨

Being an empath is a beautiful gift… but it can also be overwhelming. Feeling the emotions around you, absorbing tension that isn’t yours, carrying the weight of rooms before you even speak it’s a lot for one nervous system to hold.

Grounding is how you return to your center.
It’s the moment your body remembers safety, your mind remembers clarity, and your energy remembers where you end and the world begins.

Here are 3 grounding practices I love and teach to my clients:

🖤1. Bare Feet on the Earth
Stand on grass, soil, or even concrete with bare feet.
Scientific studies show that grounding (or “earthing”) helps regulate cortisol, reduce inflammation, and calm the nervous system.
Let the earth pull the static, stress, and noise out of your body… and remind you that you’re supported.

🖤2. Breathwork to Return to Your Body
Slow, conscious breathing guides your brain from fight-or-flight into peace.
Try inhaling for 4 counts, holding for 2, exhaling for 6. Feel your energy drop from your head into your heart, then down into your legs.
Each breath is an invitation back home.

🖤 3. Holding Hematite (or another grounding stone)
Hematite has a naturally heavy, earthy vibration that helps pull scattered energy downward.
Hold it in your palm and imagine its weight anchoring you, steadying your thoughts, and clearing emotional static.
It’s a quiet reminder that you don’t have to carry everything.

How Reiki Deepens Grounding:
Reiki doesn’t just relax you it stabilizes your energy field. It calms the nervous system, quiets emotional overwhelm, and helps release what you’ve absorbed that isn’t yours. Many empaths leave a session feeling lighter, clearer, and more rooted in their own spirit than they’ve felt in months.

Grounding isn’t just a practice it’s an act of love toward your sensitive, intuitive self.

If you’re ready to reconnect with your energy and return to your center, I’m here to hold space for you.
