Revelations in Relationships With Horses

The Revelations in Relationships Retreat is a sacred space for those who know that the way they relate in love, friendship and family no longer feels true enough. Held in nature with horses as living mirrors, this retreat invites you to slow down, feel honestly and rediscover what intimacy means when you are no longer performing, pleasing or bracing for disappointment. Guided by Adam Shereston, you step out of your usual dynamics and into a held environment where connection becomes an embodied experience rather than an idea.

What Is The Revelations in Relationships Retreat

This retreat is an experiential, equine-assisted immersion focused on intimacy, relationships and conscious connection. Through facilitated time with horses, relational practices with others and moments of quiet reflection, you are invited to see how your patterns of protection, withdrawal or over-giving play out in real time. You are not asked to act a certain way or to become a “better partner.” Instead, you are supported to notice how your body, nervous system and beliefs shape the way you reach for, receive or resist closeness. The horses respond to what is really happening beneath the story, offering clear, compassionate feedback that helps you align more fully with your truth in relationship.

 

Why Relationships & Intimacy With Horses

Horses live in herds where connection, clarity and safety are everything. They feel the subtlest changes in energy and intention, and they respond long before words appear. When you step into their field, they sense the parts of you that are open, guarded, hopeful or afraid, even when you are used to hiding those places from people. For anyone who has struggled with trust, conflict, boundaries or vulnerability, horses offer a different kind of relationship training. They show you how to inhabit your body, listen beneath assumptions and signal your needs clearly without collapsing or controlling. In their presence, you begin to experience intimacy as something honest and spacious, rooted in truth rather than performance or fear.

Who This Retreat Is For

This retreat is for individuals and couples who sense that their current relationship patterns are not sustainable, nourishing or aligned with their deeper heart. You might feel lonely in relationship, afraid of commitment, stuck in repeated conflict or unsure how to let people really in. You may carry old hurt from family, betrayal, divorce or emotional neglect, and notice how it shows up in your current connections. You might long for more depth, honesty and tenderness but feel unsure how to create it. You do not need horse experience or spiritual training, only a sincere willingness to be curious, to notice what really happens inside you in relationship and to explore new ways of meeting yourself and others.

What You Will Experience

The retreat unfolds through a gentle, structured rhythm of guided and experiential work, which may include:

  • Inner Alignment sessions with horses on the ground, focused on trust, boundaries and contact

  • Relational dialogues and authentic sharing in a confidential, held space

  • Somatic and breath-based practices to regulate the nervous system before and after connection

  • Relational exercises exploring consent, truth-telling, listening and repair

  • Time in nature to walk, integrate and allow emotions to settle

  • Gentle meditation, inquiry and simple embodied movement to anchor new awareness

You are not pushed into intensity or forced to reveal more than you are ready to share. Instead, you are steadily invited to meet the places in you that long for closeness yet brace against it, and to discover what becomes possible when your body feels safer, clearer and more present in relationship.

What You May Receive

​​​Many participants leave the Revelations in Relationships Retreat with softer defenses, clearer boundaries and a deeper understanding of how they actually relate in love and life. You may experience:

  • A more honest relationship with your own needs, desires and limits

  • Greater ability to stay present in discomfort, conflict or emotional intensity

  • Tools for communicating truthfully without blaming, shaming or abandoning yourself

  • A felt sense of connection that is grounded rather than fused, distant or performative

  • New clarity about the relationships you are in, the ones you are calling in and the ones it is time to release

Most importantly, you begin to taste intimacy as something born from self-respect and presence, not from rescuing, over-functioning or disappearing to keep the peace.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to come with a partner?

No. You are welcome to attend as an individual or as part of a couple. The work is structured so that you can explore your patterns in relationship whether or not you arrive with a partner, and you will never be forced into exercises that feel inappropriate for your situation.

Is this retreat only about romantic relationships?

While romantic and intimate partnerships are often a focus, the retreat also speaks to family, friendship and your relationship with yourself. The patterns that appear in couple dynamics are usually the same ones that shape how you connect with everyone in your life.

Is this therapy or couples counseling?

The retreat is not a replacement for clinical therapy or couples counseling and does not offer diagnosis or treatment. It is a spiritually grounded, experiential process that includes reflection, emotional awareness and equine-assisted learning, and it can complement therapeutic work you may already be doing.

What if I find it hard to talk about my feelings?

Many participants arrive with limited practice expressing emotions or needs. You will not be pushed to share before you are ready. The horses, somatic practices and gentle facilitation help you connect with what is happening inside, even when words are not yet accessible.

Will there be physically demanding activities?

All interactions with horses are on the ground and focused on awareness rather than physical challenge. Movement, time outdoors and simple practices with the herd can be engaging, but the emphasis is on safety, clarity and listening to your body, not on endurance or pushing limits.

Is prior experience with horses, yoga or meditation required?

No previous experience is required. If you do have existing practice with horses or contemplative work, this retreat offers the opportunity to deepen your understanding in a relational, equine-assisted context. All sessions are guided, trauma-aware and tailored to the group.

How many participants are on each retreat?

Group size is intentionally limited to preserve an intimate, focused field for growth and to ensure the herd is not overworked. This allows each person or couple to receive meaningful attention and creates a safe space for honest exploration. Exact numbers vary by venue and format.

Can I attend if my relationship is in crisis or transition?

Yes, many people come during seasons of separation, divorce, new beginnings or relational confusion. The retreat offers a grounded environment to listen more deeply to what your life and heart are asking of you. If you are in acute crisis or need intensive clinical support, this can be explored during your initial enquiry.

What should I bring?

Bring comfortable clothing suitable for being outdoors, sturdy footwear, any medications you need, a notebook and any simple items that help you feel grounded, such as a journal or a small sacred object. Further practical details, including travel guidance, will be shared upon booking.
