SUMMARY:The Crossroads of Wisdom: Navigating the Mystery and Practicality of the Second Half
DESCRIPTION:A Workshop for Adults Ages 50 and Above\n\n\n\nCost: $1800 \n\n\n\nTime: 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM  \n\n\n\nWe are pleased to introduce a new workshop for individuals ages 50 and above. The Crossroads of Wisdom moves into and beyond the challenges of growing older\, offering tools to reclaim and expand into the profound potential of this rich stage of growth\, calling\, and authentic expression. \n\n\n\nThe Reality of the “Second Act” In between the unrealistic images of 104-year-olds running competitive dashes and the ageist stereotype of the frail elder\, there are rich\, unexplored\, and rarely talked about experiences of growing older. \n\n\n\nThis is a time of diverse reality: individuals searching for meaning in their “last act\,” looking back and assessing inevitable regrets or lost opportunities\, and facing their fears to forge ahead with creativity. Some of us are seeking release\, others eternal youth; some retreat while others move outward to fight for our planet. Whether you are feeling hope\, rage\, peace\, humility\, or resignation\, this workshop provides a sanctuary to explore what it means not just to grow older\, but to grow whole. \n\n\n\nThe Experience: Weaving the Tapestry In this workshop\, we will explore the practical and mystical sides of the aging process. Through experiential activities with the Eponaquest herd\, we will invite the wisdom of the horse and the wisdom of the Sage and Crone to inform\, reframe\, and enhance our relationships with our authentic selves\, our families\, and our colleagues. \n\n\n\nWe will listen for the “hooves of the great ancestral horse herd” and converse with archetypes\, contemporary thinkers\, and the divine. Together\, under the warmth of the desert sun\, we will weave the threads of our past and future into a tapestry\, becoming the heroes of our own journey. \n\n\n\nThe Facilitators: A Blend of Science and Spirit This workshop offers a unique balance of the transformational and the practical: \n\n\n\n\nLinda Kohanov: Eponaquest founder and author of five books\, including the bestseller The Tao of Equus. Linda brings her expertise in the transformational power of the horse-human bond.\n\n\n\nCarole Estabrooks: A PhD-prepared nurse scientist and expert in issues related to older adults. As a senior scientist at the University of Alberta\, Carole brings deep practical knowledge of the realities of aging and long-term care.\n\n\n\n\nTogether\, they are excited to answer the question: “What is the potential of truly living the rest of our lives with consciousness\, compassion\, discernment\, grace\, and creativity?”. \n\n\n\nThe Philosophy: The Crossroads and the Wise Elder The workshop is grounded in the concept of the “Crossroads”—those places where the unknown intersects with the known\, asking us to surrender our ego to a higher calling. \n\n\n\nWe will explore the potent archetype of the Wise Elder (represented by the Crone and the Sage). Far from a negative stereotype\, this archetype possesses a “unique combination of compassion and discernment”. As Jungian analyst Marion Woodman noted\, this elder energy represents a powerful detachment: having “been there\,” one can stand in the “straight\, flat-out\, naked truth”. \n\n\n\nRegardless of gender\, the enlightened Elder embodies a balance of nurturing feminine and discriminating masculine qualities. By developing this archetype within ourselves\, we learn to: \n\n\n\n\nBecome a “tuning fork” in our environment\, resonating with reality without the need to manipulate others.\n\n\n\nUtilize “masculine” discernment to cut away what is no longer essential or destructive\, while using “feminine” nurturing to cut with love.\n\n\n\nMentor others from a place of wisdom rather than ego.\n\n\n\n\nJoin Us at the Crossroads Life is filled with many little deaths and transitions. But few of us consider that fertile time between letting go of the old and embracing the new. Join us to turn the “rest of life” into an opportunity to reap and share the fruits of a life well lived. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Black Horse Wisdom
DESCRIPTION:Introductory or Advanced — Facilitated by Linda Kohanov \n\n\n\n\n\nTime: 9:30 am to 5:30 pm daily \n\n\n\nCost: $1800 —includes lunch and workshop materials. \n\n\n\nThis powerful workshop is for people who would like to exercise intuition\, creativity\, personal development and relationship skills through reflective non-riding activities with horses\, visionary journeying experiences with music\, and simple yet profound nonverbal communication techniques that will enhance your connection to all the animals and humans in your life. No previous horse experience is necessary. \n\n\n\nBest-selling author and equine-facilitated learning pioneer Linda Kohanov will also teach participants how to use her Way of the Horse book and wisdom cards (art by Kim McElroy) for personal reflection and inspiration. \n\n\n\nWhy Black Horse Wisdom? \n\n\n\nAfter studying cross-cultural\, multi-disciplinary writings\, ancient myths and stories involving black horses\, Linda saw a recognizable theme. As she wrote in several of her books\, including Way of the Horse: Equine Archetypes for Self-Discovery and The Power of the Herd: \n\n\n\n“In dreams and myths from around the world\, the black horse heralds the reassertion of qualities difficult for the well-groomed persona to handle\, revolutionary insights and energies that can’t be readily tamed by the rules of polite society. To those courageous yet humble souls who ultimately aspire to ride the black horse\, this explosive force becomes a vehicle for expanded consciousness\, inspiration and innovation. To those who suppress or ignore its talents\, fear its passion\, or try to harness its energy without compassion and integrity\, the black horse becomes an impetuous and compulsive element\, inflicting mood swings and bizarre cravings on people who once seemed the epitome of good sense and reason. \n\n\n\n“Black horse wisdom challenges people to step off the well-worn paths of civilized thought. It is wisdom shrouded in mystery\, wisdom that’s felt more deeply than it can ever be explained\, wisdom we often ignore\, unfortunately\, until some difficulty in life opens us up to other possibilities. This universal archetype champions knowledge rejected by the mainstream: instinct\, emotion\, intuition\, sensory and extrasensory awareness\, and the human-animal partnership associated with tribal cultures. Science may never be able to dissect this wisdom\, to bring it into the light of conscious understanding\, but through the metaphor of the horse\, and through real-life interactions with these animals\, we can learn to track these mysteries\, maybe even ride them if we develop the right balance of trust\, discernment\, skill\, abandon\, and power.” \n\n\n\n\nI highly recommend Black Horse Wisdom. This was my third workshop with Linda Kohanov\, and I was again changed by my experiences with her and her horses as my teachers. In this intimate setting\, Linda shared with us the essence of the wisdom the horses have to teach us. She facilitated interactions with members of her herd that allowed us to access our heart’s desire\, convey that image to the horse\, and to interact in ways that defy description. She guided us through journeys\, and she helped us access myths from an ancient realm that can inform our lives today. In my work with Linda over the past five years\, I have come to appreciate her as an intuitive teacher\, a passionate writer\, and a wise guide in learning the way of the horse. I am grateful for her patience\, grace\, and eloquence in helping me on each new step of my journey. \n\n\n\n— M. Ruth Davenport\, PhD. \n\n\n\n\nFor more information please email info@eponaquest.com or call 520-455-5908. \n\n\n\nCancellation Policy: Cancellation up to 30 days prior to the event start date results in a credit of one-half the workshop tuition.
