Autumn Retreat 2024:  Saturday and Sunday,  October 26th - 27th 

Registration Open

SIGN UP NOW!

We humans are complex creatures.

We possess bodies that monitor our internal processes, interact with and respond to our environment, protect our precious vulnerabilities, and allow us to create, think, reproduce, discern, learn, and engage with whatever we choose. We are able to successfully generate and process unfathomable amounts of information in moments!

We also have an energetic field that is intimately connected to this body. It consists of a composite of various layers that correspond to the depths, capabilities, and possibilities, of our being. This weekend event offers five customized Network sessions with Dr. Mary, blended with Kelly's five transformational mindfulness experiences with horses, gently and beautifully supporting each participant.

This format invites changes in your central nervous system and your soul. The horses, gifted sentient beings, guide and teach true presence while allowing for safety and recognition of true self. 

Dr. Mary engages your nervous system in an environment of growth and authenticity, employing the power of Network Chiropractic: a gentle, non-manipulative form of body/mind care. She will teach your nervous system to reframe the experiences of trauma or stress as potentially beneficial sources of rejuvenation!

Kelly will teach the power of presence and reconnection to your senses, bringing awareness to sensations within your body. Connecting to True Self is a personal journey for each person, focusing on heart-centered awareness through presence, intention-setting, and recognizing the powerful life force we all possess. Combining her knowledge and experience with horses, mindfulness and somatic experiences brings participants a new sense of awareness, clarity, and peace.

We invite you to come BLOOM with us!

Learn the art of being present and fully engaged

Develop neural strategies to help you respond to stress differently

Access old limiting patterns and replace them with vibrant new approaches

Create resilience and fluidity in your mind, body, emotions, and spirit

Kelly Jones is a master of mindfulness, using the immense beauty of equine sensitivity to help us see ourselves and learn how to feel more. 

Dr. Mary employs the power of Network Chiropractic to help us reorganize our nervous systems into a framework of ease and true healing.

Join us for this life-changing event, in a never-before-offered collaboration between these two masters in their fields.

Are you ready for change?

Patterns of protection and defense, past traumas, loss of energy, posture changes that limit our breath, flexibility, and expression; emotional numbness and loss of our fullness of love and depth - we are human, and this is what can happen throughout this journey of life.

Our bodies and souls are simultaneously made up of and are wearing, one physically and energetically meshed garment. Everything is not only “connected”, it is all made up of the very same piece of dynamic, shimmering cloth! This cloth can become diminished and distorted, or vibrant and fluid! Physical and emotional limitations can result from injury, disease, and trauma, which create heavy stuck energy. We are taught to avoid and disassociate ourselves from these events of pain and illness. But energy is information! Let us help you celebrate those parts of yourself that you have not yet been able to access and integrate, and restore the fluidity and serendipity we all so richly deserve! Sometimes occurrences are more than we can absorb or assimilate in the real time of that occurrence. We would rather not go there, our perspective tells us it is “not safe”.

This lingering unprocessed energy finds a home - usually within a pattern someplace in our physical, mental, emotional, and/or spiritual fields. We often have a vague sense that it is there, but we can’t quite “see” it, in order to identify its roots and presence. We tend to numb ourselves around these experiences. The deepest aspects of our central nervous systems become anchored in patterns of numbness and comfort or discomfort.

Kelly and Dr. Mary are teachers. They teach your consciousness, and your nervous system and in doing so, reveal your old habits and patterns. They teach your mind and your brain; your conscious and unconscious. They teach safety! This awareness is an agent for change for your body, heart, and spirit. Dr. Mary and Kelly bring tools and experiences during the weekend that will unlock the YOU that is in there and longs to be free!

Human beings are a beautiful weaving together of three centers of intelligence referred to as Intellectual, Emotional, and Moving. From these systems, we draw energy, insight and a sense of self. These are separate but interrelated systems of intelligence.  When they are all online we begin to see the world in a whole new way.

Revealing our intuition, the deeper spirituality within each of us is possible.  Connecting through each of the centers creates an awakening of senses and realization of our true essence and strength. Through your experiences during this event, you will gain access to new strategies for love, life, and wellness!
