Stand InBalance Equine Interactive Programs:
At Stand InBalance, we inspire ourselves and others to connect with their inner wisdom and step into balance and authenticity each day. About Stand InBalance Equine Interactive Programs:

Stand InBalance offers a powerful, effective, and cutting -edge model of personal and professional development that combines the intuitive qualities of the horse with the client's desire to learn and grow. Our Equine Interactive Programs offer an experiential, short-term approach that goes beyond the traditional to help restore balance in people’s lives. When we Stand InBalance, we are able to face life’s challenges from a place of calm, inner strength. Horses, due to their unique animal nature, act as mirrors for our inner selves. They provide opportunities for us to develop greater self-awareness, increased self-confidence, and improved relationships – both personally and professionally. Stand InBalance is not about riding or horsemanship. It’s about partnership, communication, and authenticity; and having fun along the way. Working with our professional staff and the horses can help you discover a solution-focused approach to current problems, practice resilience, and live your inner strength, personal power, and integrity. Our programs can help you:

-Stop saying yes when you really mean no
-Have more fulfilling and happier relationships
-Enhance team synergy and effectiveness
-Do the things you’ve been wanting to do instead of just talking about them
-Be the leader you’ve always wanted to be
-Boost your results
-Trust yourself and others
-Let go of frustration and resentment
-Build your confidence
-Get playfulness and joy back in your life

All of our programs include an interactive, on-the-ground Equine Experience at the beautiful and private InBalance Ranch, located in the Santa Monica Mountains. No prior horse experience is necessary. To Learn more about our programs visit our website at: www.StandInBalance.com

Why Horses? Unlike humans horses are prey animals. As such, they are constantly aware of others and their surroundings. Instinctively, as prey animals, their survival depends on their ability to sense any underlying emotional current in their environment. They use their animal wisdom - keen sense of smell, hearing, body awareness, and vigilance - to keep them safe. They are fully present in the moment and require us to get out of our heads and be fully present. Horses are powerful messengers that mirror back their direct experience of humans. They are completely congruent and authentic with what they experience – in other words, what they show on the outside matches what they feel on the inside. They don’t deny or mask their feelings and our masks/personas don’t fool them. Like humans, horses are herd animals and rely on each other for safety and survival. Whether clients are engaged in individual or group activities, interacting with horses provides an opportunity to work on dynamics related to relationships, isolation, asking for help, and one’s role in the human herd. Areas that are commonly addressed include boundaries, assertiveness, trust, powerlessness, and frustration tolerance. All Stand InBalance professionals are EAGALA certified.

This month we're sharing 9 Roads to . Here's #4:
Notice your “NO”s. If you find yourself saying “no” an awful lot, whether it’s to others or your own ideas, consider “Maybe”. Anytime you find yourself automatically saying “no” take an extra moment to notice this and reconsider. Sometimes, we get into the habit of shutting down possibilities before we’ve fully considered them. What would happen if you took more time to consider a suggestion or idea? The answer doesn’t always need to be “yes”, but if you’ve gotten into the habit of locking the door before asking who’s there, take a minute to look through the peep hole and you might just want to open the door.

"Non-attachment is not the elimination of desire. It is the spaciousness to allow any quality of mind, any thought or feeling, to arise without closing around it, without eliminating the pure witness of being. It is an active receptivity to life.” - Stephen Levine www.standinbalance.com/receptivity

"Once you know how to listen, in deep receptivity, sensitivity, you are not there. The listener is not there, only listening. And when the listener is not there, there is no ego: there is no one who listens, only listening. And then it penetrates to the very core of your being.” – Osho www.standinbalance.com/receptivity

This month we're sharing 9 Roads to . Here's #3:
Recognize abundance.
In order to be receptive we must recognize that there is something to receive. The more we are aware of abundance and align with it, the more there is for us to receive. When we are focused on lack, our possibilities seem limited. As a result, we tend to squander and hold on. When we focus on abundance, we recognize the unlimited potential of the future and we allow for that abundance to come to us. Being grateful further amplifies your awareness of the abundance available to you. Try it!

This month we're sharing 9 Roads to . Here's #2:
Let go of expectations. Expectations often get in the way of what’s happening here and now because we’re so focused on an end goal. Although it’s nice to have dreams and desires, it’s important to let go of the reigns every now and then and see what surprises lie in store. If we’re dead set on a certain outcome, we are narrowing our window of opportunity. When we let go of the struggle for an end result, we create a receptive space for creativity and possibility!

“Receptivity is a state of no-mind. When you are utterly empty of all thought, when consciousness has no content, when the mirror reflects nothing, it is receptivity. Receptivity is the door to the divine. Drop the mind and be.” – Osho www.standinbalance.com/receptivity

“Let go of certainty. The opposite isn't uncertainty. It's openness, curiosity and a willingness to embrace paradox, rather than choose up sides. The ultimate challenge is to accept ourselves exactly as we are, but never stop trying to learn and grow.” ― Tony Schwartz www.standinbalance.com/receptivity
