Embody and Heal: Eating Disorder Recovery Group
Description
Join us at The Healing Equine Ranch in Agoura Hills for a transformative monthly eating disorder recovery group designed to support your healing journey through the powerful connection between mind, body, and horse.
This three-hour experiential group integrates:
✨ Somatic Relaxation – Learn to regulate your nervous system and reconnect with your body through guided breathwork, movement, and mindfulness techniques.
🐎 Equine Growth & Learning – Engage in ground-based, non-riding activities with horses to cultivate trust, self-awareness, and emotional resilience.
🌀 Listening Circle & Processing – Share in a supportive, non-judgmental space where personal reflections and therapeutic insights help deepen your recovery process.
Why Horses?
Horses are sentient beings who respond authentically to human behavior, offering immediate, nonjudgmental feedback. This can help individuals identify patterns in their emotional and behavioral responses and develop healthier relational dynamics. Working with horses fosters self-acceptance, emotional regulation, nervous system balance, and embodied awareness—all essential elements for lasting recovery from disordered eating. The horses also model healthy, connected relationships built on trust and presence, reinforcing the healing process.
This group is open to individuals at any stage of recovery who are seeking an alternative, body-centered approach to healing. No prior horse experience is necessary.
