Serious Crack and Insight

View from the grounds of Two Bunch Palms Spa/Wellness Center

After a year of returning to riding and teaching, the stagnation/pain of the horse industry is evident and a reminder of what sent me to India six years ago. Walking and visiting all of the different places of worship in the Jaipur hills is coming in handy--the sensing practice of the different  vibrations/textures of the sites.

While spending a day at Two Bunch Palms preparing for the Selfseeds launch gave me tremendous insight into humans in an active evolutionary effort on a mind, body, and soul level. I realized that the texture/teachings at the spa is what riders need to embody to deepen their timing and feel for riding. Riding and teaching on my off day reminded me of the texture I prefer to work in with the horses and riders. Sensing the texture of a work day and the environment at the very big horse show has been triggering an all too familiar pain response that is most ignited by the animal world. It provided a serious crack and insight. I can find the inner state, but it doesn't solve the outer state.

The message that followed: develop an equestrian facility that is next door to an educational spa, so it would be a wellness/awareness facility for humans/animals. It would address the evolutionary needs for both groups. I checked with the person who is a consultant for launching Selfseeds at Two Bunch Palms et al. She thought it would be a "home run" for both. Sign me up!!!

Contemplating it all... Grace!
