Retreats and Programs:

In 2009 we had the pleasure of connecting with and healing people from all over the world, establishing deep and lasting relationships through truth, love, joy and the freedom to explore our child-like innocence and claim our heart’s desires. View our Testimonials page to see what some of them had to say about their E.A.R.T.H. Program Retreat experience.

E.A.R.T.H. Program Retreat Level 1: Various Dates May - August, 2010

Journey to the fourth dimension where awareness of universal oneness begins. The course spans seven days of adventures designed to awaken the immortal spiritual self and lead it to a level where peace, joy, connection and clarity are crystallized, helping each participant step through the gateway to follow their individual journey to enlightenment. There will be Equine Assisted Therapy with our Practitioners in the paddock at the Barn/House each morning as well as ground and riding exercises with the horses. Afternoons will be spent discovering and connecting with the land, its chakras, vortices, and powerful crystals, the trees, rocks and other realms. There will be free time to journal, explore or follow the herd.

E.A.R.T.H. Program Retreat Level 2: Various Dates May - August, 2010

Once you have taken and resonated with the 4th dimension where awareness of the universal oneness begins, journey further to the 5th dimension where our sensitivities align with The All or the connection to all things otherwise known as Universal Consciousness. Explore, follow the herd, and through guided and self-directed activities spend time discovering oneness and interconnection with all life. Level 2 Retreats Include: Exploration into stillness in silent meditation on the land, expanded journeying into the upper, middle and lower worlds, which will incorporate individual exploration with land and horse excercises while journaling visions, feelings and increased awareness. There will be time to follow and communicate with the herd and experience challenging and enlightening guided horse activities, along with our equine assisted therapy and healing on treatment tables and in the paddock area. We will also offer deeper exploration into your creative self through vision boards, art excercises and personal mandalas.

Equinistic Healing Certification Course: To be taken along side the E.A.R.T.H. Program Retreat

Horses are coming forward as teachers and healers in programs everywhere. Here at Gateway 2 Ranch we pioneered the E.A.R.T.H. Programs last summer and had interest from people all over the world who would like to incorporate these "at liberty horse healing programs" that are producing miraculous results.

This summer we will be offering the Equinistic Healing Certification course. The course will involve apprenticing at a regular E.A.R.T.H. Retreat at the cost of $4,000 while learning from Liz about the horses, their messages, and communication "at liberty"; and from Billa, about shamanic principles regarding connection and oneness to the earth and the horse liberty healing techniques.

Participants will keep a journal of their cases, details, and results (and if you presently do healing with horses, start now) and be required to do another 20 hours practicum after the one week course and submit a detailed journal of case studies. The practicum can be completed at another E.A.R.T.H. Retreat (offered at half price or $2,000). There will also be a follow up visit at an E.A.R.T.H. Retreat the next year (at $4,000) to submit the required case study and be tested and certified.
This course would be a natural for Epona and E.A.G.A.L.A. graduates to add to their skills.

The pre-requisite for the course is an understanding of energy work (Healing Touch, Reiki, etc.) and apprenticeship is completed at a regular E.A.R.T.H. Retreat with 20 hours of practicum performed at another E.A.R.T.H. Retreat or similar situation.

Marta Williams Program: May 31st - June 3rd, 2010 - $2,000(CAD)

Marta is offering a four day Program which will cover beginning and advanced communication, medical intuition and communicating with nature.

Beginning - Intermediate Animal Communication:
In this hands-on Program you will learn intuitive communication by doing it. We will work with the animals that come to the Program and with your animals at home, using pictures and descriptions. You will experience undeniable proof - through doing simple verifiable exercises working with animals you don't know - that intuitive communication is real and that you can do it. You will also learn techniques for talking to your own animals and hearing what they have to say to you. Explore your animal's purpose and role in your life.

Advanced Animal Communication:

In this Program you will learn advanced applications of intuitive communication including finding lost animals, assisting animals in crisis, talking with frightened or resistant animals, talking with many animals at one time, communicating with animals who have died, remote viewing ("seeing" from a distance), learning how animals mirror us, discovering an animal's past experiences and past lives, interviewing animals, and talking with wildlife. You will also learn techniques for increasing your speed, accuracy and confidence in any situation.

Medical Intuition and Energy Healing:

Interview an animal intuitively about his/her health and discover what life issues may be affecting the animal’s well being. You will be taught to scan the body and the charkas (energy centers in the body) to detect deficiencies and imbalances and then use energy to promote healing in these areas. Practice on animals and people in the Program and work with photographs and descriptions of animals not present. Holistic health care resources for animals also provided.

Communicating with Nature:

In this Program you will expand your communication with wildlife. You will also learn how to communicate with trees and plants and how to bring health, balance and harmony to the plants in your garden using intuitive communication. You will discover your ally in nature and learn to connect with the spirits of place and the features of the landscape.

Margrit Coates Program: July 13th-14th, 2010 - $1,500(CAD)

Learn how to match the energy frequency of horses, so that you can help with a variety of mental, emotional and physical conditions. Matching a horse's energy vibration also means that you can communicate intuitively, because healing and telepathic communication work on the same energy wavelength. Spiritual healing is creative and does not rely on rituals or symbols to access healing energy. Healing energy is around and within us, and during the Program you will learn how to harness this in your own individual way, and relating to the unique energy signature of a horse.
Reaching the horse soul to soul through a healing vibration means is, consciousness raising and not only do you then understand the horse on a much deeper level, you also explore your own potential.

At the end of the two day Program you will know who the healer within you is, having allowed your innate gifts to have surfaced. The Program is suitable for those new to using healing energy as well as people with previous experience.

The Program that Liz Mitten Ryan is hosting will be the first time that Margrit Coates has taught in Canada – she has visited the US on numerous occasions. Places are limited so book early to avoid disappointment.
