WILD PEACE

The term wild peace refers to the sense of true freedom that comes when we choose to honor our authenticity and take life on life's terms, rather than compromising our authenticity for a false peace that rewards us with a false sense of belonging.

 

and deep sense of freedom and his is the wild peace, that can be found in that heartfelt exchange. 

 

To cross-pollinate the political, environmental, and spiritual movements that seek peace, justice, and resilience.

 

True healing and restoration occur when we courageously step into our stories of pain and harm.

​

Peace does not fall out of the sky but grows from our diligence towards love, and that means listening and learning the history, and actually seeing what you’ve talked yourself into hating. Martin Prechtel

​

Personal resilience practices to prevent and recover from burnout, communication skills, conflict resolution, social permaculture for nurturing and developing group efficacy,  creating community ritual, spirit, and magic!

​

​Confronting oppression, fostering diversity, solutions-based strategies, community organizing.

​

But here's the invitation: what if, instead of turning away, we turned inward—not as an escape, but as a way to reimagine what’s possible? What if we could bring the wisdom of our inner nature into dialogue with the outer world, bridging that false divide?

In the Wild Soul community, we know that our inner landscapes are reflections of the Earth itself. The seasons, the cycles, the wild forces that shape the world—all of these live within us, too. This year, let’s lean into that knowing.

Let’s make 2025 a year where we embody the archetypes of Earth not only as guides for personal transformation but as beacons of change in our communities and our planet.

Instead of resolutions, what if we set intentions that honor the wild, sacred reciprocity between ourselves and nature? What if we asked questions like: How can I become a steward of the Earth in my daily life? How can I nurture my own wild soul in ways that ripple out into the world? How can I stay grounded, even in the face of uncertainty?

Let’s meet this New Year with courage, creativity, and connection. Together, we’ll remember that we are not separate from the Earth’s challenges; we are a part of its healing. And the wild within us is a powerful force for regeneration and renewal, both personal and collective.

If you’re ready to explore these questions in depth, in a community, I invite you to join the growing number of women who are gathering for the Wild Soul Woman Book Circle and Sisterhood which launches January 1st.

In this circle of sisterhood, we will come together to honor our inner and outer nature, share our journeys, and inspire one another.

You can sign up here:  Let’s walk this wild and sacred path together.

​

your curiosity to know your own wild depths. Perhaps you sense your own desire to break free of the barriers that hold you back. Or to rise like a wildflower through the cement of eons of civilization that have worked to keep women in their place. This is longing born out of the very belly of the Earth.

For only when women rewild their souls, will we truly begin the work of rewilding our planet.

 

Peacebuilding seeks to address the underlying causes of conflict, helping people to resolve their differences peacefully and lay the foundations to prevent future violence.

 

MISSION

We empower and train people and organizations to resolve conflict through mediation, facilitation, restorative justice and other collaborative means of communication.

 

VISION

We envision our community equipped with the skills to resolve conflicts in healthy, civil and peaceful ways.

“Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict – alternatives to passive or aggressive responses, alternatives to violence.”

~Dorothy Thompson

We engage the natural wisdom of our resident equines to support healing for individuals and groups, and bring a unique approach to our work that allows our animals full freedom and choice and does not require the use of any force, pressure, coercion, or persuasion to be effective. Our work is ground-based, meaning that there is no riding involved, which allows our animals to act naturally, intuitively, authentically, and spontaneously. 

 

Working with the wisdom of equines means discovering and engaging their ability to communicate on a somatic level, teaching us how to stay present to and in resonance with our emotional experience in an embodied way. By offering honest feedback through their natural responses that reflects back what we are feeling inside, they have the power to support significant personal insights into our emotions and relationships. Equine wisdom healing work can be effective in working with a range of challenges, including PTSD, addiction, relational conflict, boundary issues, behavioral difficulties, depression, anxiety, and trauma. The non-verbal, somatically-based nature of this work makes it particularly effective for people who find traditional talk therapy unhelpful.

​

Led by their innate instincts, all equines have a deep and natural ability to see beyond the masks we wear and reach straight into the heart and soul of who we really are. This means that, in their presence, we do not have to hide who we are but can risk being seen for our true selves. Explore the wisdom and power of equines and experience the transformative benefits of working with these amazing natural-born healers. Please contact us for more information or to schedule a free consultation to discuss your needs. The gallery below shows some of the transformative healing connections our resident animals have made spontaneously with those who seek it. All photographs shared with permission.
