Hippocrene Spring--Epona

Awaken Your Senses... Personal Growth through Equine Experiential Learning

Personal, Spiritual, and Professional Growth Through Equine Experiential Learning

Horses guide us to a deeper understanding of the mysteries of everyday life.

Time spent with horses in nature returns us to connection to Spirit and purpose in our lives by re-awakening our heart and soul. Carl Jung taught that we are all born whole and that as adaptations to our environments we lose awareness of that oneness with Spirit. Hippocrene Spring offers Spiritual Retreats and Personal and Professional Growth Workshops in scenic Sonoma, California nestled among the mountains and vineyards. 

"With any phenomenon that stretches the boundaries of consentual reality, people must [experience] it to believe it..." Linda Kohanov

"Cathryn, ...your great sense of compassion, your gentle ways, and your wisdom carried me through a very challenging time in my life. I came to you because of your counseling training but our ten weekly sessions with the horses brought me more insight than years of one on one therapy. I am so very grateful to have found you and your herd!! With deep appreciation."
