At TomKat Ranch, we believe the concept of Regeneration has to go beyond the landscape into the realm of the mindscape. Regeneration isn’t just about sustainable food production; it’s about fostering a deeper appreciation for all Earth systems. To truly embrace a regenerative mindset, individuals must connect with their innate awareness of nature.
Horses, with their remarkable ability to assess human behavior through heightened senses, can play a crucial role in this process. They know when a person is uncomfortable and disconnected from the natural world. It’s a tension and discomfort a person expresses through hormone stress levels when they are around the horse that a horse is able to pick up on. We believe that through an individual’s reflective awareness, horses can help guide them toward a fully regenerative mindset.
Our Equine Program is designed to facilitate this connection. It offers individuals the opportunity to engage with horses, be assessed by them, and ultimately, we hope, to reconnect with their innate relationship to the natural world through them. This program aims to inspire and motivate individuals to rediscover their inner regenerative worldview.
Below is a video of the equine program in progress, led and narrated by Wendy Millet.
