Sierrah Acres
In a next-to-nature & safe environment, Sierrah Acres offers Equine Assisted Personal Development No riding or experience with horses is necessary.
At Sierrah Acres, we offer equine assisted self-discovery sessions that involve working alongside the horse to achieve new grounds in your personal growth, healing and development. Our horses will share with you a profound sense of sensitivity, strength and self-awareness that will transform your relationships with yourself and others.
DID YOU KNOW? 🐴🐴🐴Studies prove, spending time with horses lowers cortisol levels (the stress hormone). Plain and simple! How can it not, right?! 🤣
This summer at Sierrah Acres! www.sierrahacres.com
Walk away with some eye opening self-discovery. Learn some real-life lessons through the nature of this incredibly intuitive and non-judgemental prey animal. Experience presence and a stress free mind while doing it ... plus it's tons of fun, for every age!!

A FEW TAKEAWAYS OF MY OWN, FROM TIME SPENT WITH HORSES ... 🌈
I think one of the most important lessons horses have taught me is how to SLOW DOWN... and see! It's not just about me or my agenda.
When it comes to our relationship, its always been about the COMMUNICATION between us being clear, respectful, honest and fair.
To have true harmony in our PARTNERSHIP we both have our own responsibilities to uphold, ... no one more, than the other.
My PATIENCE and FOCUS has improved drastically.
I've learned to increase my ability to LIVE MINDFULLY and allow life to unfold as it may. The practice of letting 'stuff' go and pass through me, without worry of those things I have no control over has become a true gift.
Sharing time and space calmly with RESPECT and UNDERSTANDING that we are all individuals striving for many of the same things in life, has humbled me more than anything else ever could.
Lastly, while I continue on my learning journey, I'm having way more FUN 'just being me' ...with all of my human imperfections!
*** How can I not bring these lessons I've learned through horses, back into my real world? It's not possible, it just follows me quite naturally!

SIERRAH ACRES 🐴🐴🐴- 2024 THE YEAR OF "BALANCE"
For the past 3 Januarys I've read the book or listened to the audio version (I have both), to one of my very favourite reads : The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer. I LOVED it even more this round and have found it super fitting for our new Sierrah Acres mantra for '24 too! 🥰 Ironically, and don't let the cover fool you, it's not about horses (or unicorns) at all. This personal growth, must read is about developing some major self awareness and then allowing each day to unfold just as it may. It's a wonderful explanation of how we can TRULY learn how to "just be" - enjoy every day of our lives and not be bothered by virtually anything. Sounds too simple, too good to be true right? After all we are only human! Because it makes such good sense and with some practice is fairly straightforward, I've become a big believer and a true fan! Happy January everyone! - how ever it unfolds! 🤗

SOCIAL SATURDAYS, SESSIONS FOR TEENS!! - A SIERRAH ACRES UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY!🐴🥰
With the return of back to school... unfortunately for some teens, can also mean the return of heightened anxiety levels.
This fall peers will be offered a spot in a semi-private (2 participants only), professionally guided and fully supported, equine assisted personal development session(s).
The peers will likely not have met one another prior, so the experience will be brand new for both of them.
While gradually easing into the environment subjects will surface naturally, in the areas of:
- Mindfulness
- Relationships (balancing and building)
- Respect for self and others
- Communication
- Boundaries
- Problem Solving
Along with building confidence and having some fun, being at the forefront! 😀🐴
These personalized sessions are 2 hrs. long and will run on Saturdays only. Please contact us soon to learn more about whether this opportunity may be a good fit for your teen - read our testimonials and get on our list this fall! 🐴🍂🌳

FACT: Studies have shown that spending quality time with horses, lowers cortisol levels (the stress hormone), aiding in the support of positive mental health.

ONCE A HORSE PERSON, ALWAYS A HORSE PERSON! ❤️
Reuniting this like-minded gentleman (85) with his life long passion for horses turned out to be a gift in return! 🥰 Reminiscing about his horse stories from the past, recalling those 'special ones'🐴🐎 he connected with .. and snippets from his upbringing, was not only heartwarming and enjoyable, but SO very inspiring at the same time!!

A RECENT FAMILY VISIT to Sierrah Acres was a brand new experience for this family of four! ❤️ Under blue skies and comfy temperatures, our team of humans and horses offered this group an opportunity to begin learning the language of horse. 🐎👥The afternoon was spent focussing on learning to communicate and understand the horse from their perspective. Once we sampled the basics of this and how, when and why to build on it, the relationships (and the ah-ha's) began to grow! Not to mention SO much FUN while we were at it!!😃🥰😎🐴

The relationship must ALWAYS come first!😍
Our youth individual sessions at Sierrah Acres have a large emphasis on building an honest and trusting relationship with the horse first, ..no matter how long that might take. Learning from the inside out ...and then if the horseshoe fits, ..from the ground up!
In the meantime our young people are practicing quite naturally next to the horse, how to find that state of relaxation and calm, developing their focus, working on clear communication, growing their patience threshold, not to mention building confidence galore!!

HORSES THINK BEFORE THEY DO!🤔
They are hard-wired to simply observe... and then make a decision.
The constant mindset of being human, is often DO, DO, and GO, GO in our ever moving lifestyles (physically and/or mentally).
We can often miss the step of pausing... then thinking, before we DO. What a fantastic skill set to have and worth developing!❤️
Learn more about balancing the two - allow we at Sierrah Acres to support you while the horse becomes your teacher. 🐴

A FAMILY VISIT TO SIERRAH ACRES 👥😍🫂🐴last Sunday was a chance to discover the uniqueness of horses for all involved. Embracing and perhaps rediscovering some of our individuality is always a takeaway in itself. Connecting with loved ones, celebrating and healing are all possibilities when we are open to allowing the horse to be the bridge in between. A great afternoon enjoyed by all! Many thanks and appreciation to Lee Anne and Mark who volunteered their time and supported the family (and the horses) throughout. 🥰

IN THE RAW - ONE FINE SPRING DAY!! 🐴🐴🐴
This is where the term "horse play" comes from! 😃Horses are often seen calm and relaxed.. but did you know that they are social creatures too and LOVE to play! ❤️ They often are found playing games, while competing for the role of head of the herd. Watch this little video from beginning to end and let us know who you believe the leader of this little herd of 3 is ... and why?

WHAT'S IN A SMILE? 🙂 (besides it being contagious)😍
When you smile your whole body smiles and that means a lot to a horse! 🐎Many of us know that horses communicate through body language, 👥but did you know that they can also read facial expressions as well?! 🥹😔😂 There have been many studies made on this over the recent years stating just that (see below).
