Join Brighter Horizons Equine for a three‑day, hands‑on workshop with Jon Eagle.&nbsp; Sung Nagi Kici Okiju: Becoming one with the Spirit of the Horse is not a horsemanship model; it&rsquo;s a way of life. Our ancestor&rsquo;s weren&rsquo;t just good horsemen, they were good relatives to the horse nation. They knew and understood the horse&rsquo;s abilities to affect people in powerful ways. The horse is like a mirror; they reflect back to us what we&rsquo;re sending out to the universe. Our relative, the horse, has healing abilities. Sung Nagi Kici Okiju is a unique experience that utilizes the spirit of the horse and the wisdom to reconnect, and better understand what of the Lakota/Dakota Oyate to help people to center themselves, reconnect, and find healing. Together, we will look at the four stages of life to gain a better understanding of who we are mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Sung Nagi Kici Okiju uses 95% ground and mounted exercises for use in the practice of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) and Equine Assisted Learning (EAL). LEARNING STRATEGIES: Becoming one with the Spirit of the Horse helps to improve creativity, problem-solving, communication, teamwork, and leadership skills. It builds upon strengths and helps to improve self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-awareness. By becoming one with the spirit of the horse, you will learn to center yourself, reconnect, and find balance. SPECIFIC LEARNING OBJECTIVES:1. Participants will gain an understanding of how unresolved grief has affected us as a people.2. Participants will gain an understanding of family culture by reflecting on their own.3. Participants will gain an understanding of the importance of developing positive relationships.&nbsp;4.
