Coaching From the Heart: A FREE Internet ‘Salon’
Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at 1:00 PM EST
Are You A Coach Who Wants to Create Transformation, then join Lisa Murrell and Kathleen Ingram on for a FREE live streaming internet “salon” called “Coaching From the Heart” on Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at 1:00 PM EST
What is coaching from the heart? A way of connecting with ourselves and our clients that is based upon relationships and recognizes the value of emotions and energy in supporting and guiding those who come to us for coaching –concepts that are inherent horse wisdom and difficult to learn in traditional coaching programs.
Equine Coaches, Simon, Tibor and Spanky will join us as we go deeply into a conversation about:
- The 5 critical elements for transformational coaching
- How the ‘Shadow Self; (those unrecognized and unaccepted aspects of ourselves) hold important wisdom for our coaching and clients.
- Why emotional and energetic agility is THE future of coaching.
- How you can take your coaching to the next level through Equine Assisted coaching!
Your first Salon? A Salon is a gathering of like-minded people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine taste and increase the knowledge of the participants through conversation and connection.
What is Live Streaming? A very nifty piece of internet technology that will let us interact and engage live- almost like we were together in person – ala ‘salon’. (Don’t worry, if you can open a URL in your web browser, you’ll be able to participate easily and with grace.)

February 3-5, 2012: “Launching Your Coaching Journey,” A 3 day Learning Intensive with Lisa Murrell and Kathleen Barry Ingram, Albuquerque, New Mexico
January 22, 2012 by Kathleen
This experience can, and most likely will, change your life!!
Are you ready to step into your greatness and share your gifts? Do you want to wake up each day excited and full of gratitude because you are living your life with a clear purpose? Would you like to live in a like-hearted community of learning and support? Then you have arrived! “Launching your Coaching Journey” is about launching your life as you intend it to be from now on…. Coaching is not a ‘job,’ it is a way of being.
Relationship building is at the heart of coaching! The experience of working with horses requires a relationship with another being. It requires an acute awareness of boundaries -yours and theirs- as well as skill in interpreting body language. Interacting with horses requires obtaining permission to lead and demonstrating a willingness to follow. Such a relationship demands courage as well as vulnerability. Most importantly, the horse requires authentic communication. Twenty minutes in the round pen with a horse will take these powerful, insightful concepts off the page, out of your head, and anchor them into your entire being. You will also experience a tremendous boost in self-esteem and confidence from learning how to connect and establish boundaries with a thousand pound creature through a mind/body connection, presence and clarity of intent and connecting with your ‘heart’s desire’.
Virtual Classroom Work before the in-person learning intensive to prepare for our time with the horses will include:
Introduction to Coaching
-The ICF competencies and standards
-Distinctions between therapy and coaching
-Setting the coaching foundation
-Co-Creating the relationship, Part 1
On-site Equine and Experiential Components – Creating Awareness of Self and Others:
Through a series of specially designed activities with horses on the ground (no riding), you will deepen awareness of your personal challenges, core feelings and areas of bodily tension that inhibit your ability to reach your true potential.
Launching your Coaching Journey Workshop includes:
-Pre-site work
-3 day on-site learning intensives with the horses
-1 private coaching session with Lisa
-1 90 min content session with group
-1 90 min peer coaching call
This is an ICF Approved Coach Training Workshop
Cost: $2000 per person

March 19-21, 2012: The Zone of Intuitive Knowing, an Intensive with Kathleen Barry Ingram and Sun Tui, United Kingdom
January 22, 2012 by Kathleen
The Zone of Intuitive Knowing led by Kathleen Barry Ingram MA co-creator of The Epona Approach ™
Exploring the Scientific, Psychological and Spiritual Dimensions of Equine Facilitated Learning and Psychotherapy
If you are interested in the subtle energetic connections between all of life then this workshop is for you. We exist as a unity, interdependent in relationship with all in the invisible web of the quantum field. Horses, as consummate teachers, can show us how to re-discover, connect and develop our “knowing” selves. The Zone of Intuitive “Knowing” comes directly from the ‘brain in the gut’ and the ‘brain in the heart’. This workshop includes experiential exercises with the horses that engage our innate abilities to use these organs of perception. We can choose to enter the Zone of Intuitive “Knowing” through direction from these powerful centers of intelligence in concert with the intelligence centered in the brain. When fully grounded we are able to extend our self-awareness into all aspects of daily life and live authentically each moment with tangible success.
Business and life coaches, counselors, psychotherapists, healing therapists (any discipline), teachers, business managers, trainers and consultants, all horse professionals or anyone interested in human growth and development will find this workshop helpful. This is a no- riding workshop.
This workshop can be used as a qualifying workshop for IFEAL Facilitator Training
Cost: £1,450.00

April 14-15, 2012: Connecting with the Heart – Yours and the Horse’s, Dusseldorf, Germany
January 22, 2012 by Kathleen
Grace in Presence and Flow in Movement.
This 2 day workshop is an advanced workshop with those already familiar with the Epona Approach™ which is not a method of training or working the horse. Kathleen Ingram, as the co-creator of the Epona Approach™ with Linda Kohanov (author of the “Tao of Equus”), along with Eva and her magnificent herd will encourage the participants to follow their hearts in a respectful relationship. This workshop will help participants to maintain connection with respect and afford opportunities to take this into movement with the horse. Each individual’s intuitive gifts and the horses true essence is honored and encouraged.
Daniel Siegel, author of “Mindsight“, uses the description of this honoring of self with others and calls this “feeling felt”. In order for this to take place both the horse and the person must feel and experience the soul and essence of each other. As facilitators, we hope to help others to be open to their unique gifts and challenges. We will assist them in this integration for following the original “blueprint of their souls”. To do this the person must be present to what is happening and look for collaboration in stillness and movement, essentially what Kathleen has called the “Yin and Yang of It”
Cost: 395€ with snacks and Vegetarian lunches.
This workshop will be held in English – German translation possible if required.
