Horses have taught me a kind of meditation that’s only possible when you’re acting as one and communicating instinctively without words. – Robert Redmond

The Power of Pause

Renew.  Refocus.  Recharge

Amid uncertainty and unpredictability, it’s essential to set aside time to reconnect with ourselves. When we pause and become mindful about quieting what is in our heads, we allow the wisdom of the body and heart to inform our leadership.

Benefits of Mindfulness Coaching

Join Amanda for a special day with her horses out in nature. Discover how mindfulness can strengthen your resiliency, your self-awareness and help you cope with uncertainty. Connect with some wonderful horses who can show you a thing or two about how to slow down, release stress, and become more centered.

How Do Horses Teach Mindfulness?

Horses are creatures of the present.  They are naturally mindful of their environment and us. When we interact with them, horses require us to be fully present and clear in our intentions – in other words, more mindful. They discern our mood, mirror our thoughts and feelings, and respond to how we show up without judgment. Learning with horses helps us become more skilled in our mindfulness and leadership intentions.

I had a Power Coaching Session with Horses. This was an exceptional experience that I will remember for a long time. Amanda and her team were wonderful to work with, including the horses! The hands-on session provided great insights for me and my leadership style. I was able to take what I learned and immediately put it into practice at my company. I’m very thankful for what Amanda taught me! Her passion for both leadership and horses was obvious and made her a great coach to learn from.
