The Way of the Horse

Restoring Compassion, Renewal and Well-Being
through the Healing Archetype of the Feminine
Horses evoke the qualities of strength, power,
grace, beauty and freedom. They are also
powerful mirrors for what lies deep within our
bodies—the unfinished emotions of fear,
rejection, abuse, loss and grief. They are
windows to our soul. Through the Tibetan
practice of WindHorse, art making, the Tonglen
prayer- practice of giving and receiving,
contemplative practices, and actually going into
the field with horses, we will journey to the
heart to find what has true heart and meaning
at this point in our lives.

Come to relax, breathe,
spend time in nature, find time for yourself and
receive a Reiki healing blessing.

When: February 22, 2018, 9am to 4 pm
Where: Bennett Peak Ranch, Santa Rosa, CA
Fee: $125.00 which includes A personalized
Healing Tool Kit including Ho’ola Essential Oils, a
simple breakfast, coffee, tea, juice and lunch and
time with horses.

Embedded in our bodies as deep as our DNA, are
the wounds of our ancestors. We are the ones
forecasted to take humanity forward into our
wholeness by re-claiming the qualities of the
feminine: cooperation, respect, trust, emotions,
intuition, creativity and innovation.

The chaplain staff, offer a blessing of hands several times a year in the adjacent hospital including during Nurse’s Week. But this event was special in that the Nurses felt a need to honor their hands as the instrument of delivering care.

There was a lot of out-with-the-old by moving and even more in-with-the-new in addition to the new building, there was new decor, furnishing, technology, work flows and operation plans. But the nurses and staff are the continuity. The nurses hands have delivered care to many patients before and will continue to touch peoples lives with sensitivity and expert knowledge.

Gone From My Sight

Gone From My Sight

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my
side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and
starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty
and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she
hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea
and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then someone at my side says: “There, she is gone!”

“Gone where?”

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large
in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my
side and she is just as able to bear the load of living
freight to her destined port.

Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just
at the moment when someone at my side says: “There
she is gone!” There are other eyes watching her
coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad
shout? “Here she comes!”

And that is dying.

–Henry Van Dyke

Barbara Karnes RN, nurse author, wrote a beautiful series of helpful guides for people about death and the dying process. This poem is the namesake of one of her most helpful guides to those with advanced illness, facing the journey eminently and their loved-ones, Gone From My Sight.
