This unique offering is guided by Kelly Dukarski, founder of A Wild Omen. Kelly is a Certified Equine Gestaltist, Master Gestaltist, Licensed Equine Facilitated practitioner, herbalist and horticulturist. She is dedicated to shining a light on the healing capacity of horses and nature’s ability to connect us. As a lifelong horsewoman with over three decades of experience in natural horsemanship, Kelly works at the intersection of Equine Gestalt, herbal wisdom, and the living intelligence of nature. Her approach is rooted in the belief that horses—attuned to energy and entirely present—offer a rare opportunity to be truly seen. In their presence, we are invited to soften, listen, and reconnect with what feels most true. Healing Within Nature’s Wisdom weaves together the medicine of horses and the healing power of nature to offer us the opportunity to remember our belonging within the natural world. Through equine gestalt, herbal rituals, embodied horseback riding, heartcentered hikes, and evenings under a star filled sky, participants are gently guided back into the rhythm of nature—celebrating the interconnectedness of all things. Your stay will include amazing accommodations, an inspirational landscape, optional massage and bodywork, and spacious time for reflection and connection. All meals will be thoughtfully provided by a private chef, with vibrant, seasonal offerings prepared each day in support of an omnivorous diet. Over the course of four nights, we’ll gather around the table to share in conversation, laughter and the gift of togetherness—each meal supporting presence, connection, and community
