SUMMARY:Carer Connect - Equine Assisted Learning in Woodend
DESCRIPTION:A unique opportunity for Carers to connect\, reflect and thrive. \n**For Carers living in the Loddon Mallee Region of Victoria! \nAs a Carer it can be difficult to find time to focus on your own wellbeing. Carer Connect – Equine Assisted Learning\, offers a unique and enriching opportunity to step away from daily responsibilities… a time to connect with others and invest in yourself. \nOver four engaging sessions\, participants will work alongside horses in a safe and supportive environment.

This connection is explored throughout the program. \nPast participants have described the program as powerful\, transformative and life changing. Carers reporting increased confidence\, stronger personal boundaries\, renewed perspective and a greater sense of connection with themselves and others. \nWhether you are looking for time to reflect\, to learn new skills or simply a chance to connect with fellow Carers\, this program offers a truly memorable experience. \nThe dates for our final program for 2026 are November 10\, 17\, 24 & December 1. \nAll Tuesday’s from 10:30am – 12:30pm at Hamer Equine Assisted Learning. \nCarers need to be available for all 4 sessions. \nRegistrations via Trybooking: https://www.trybooking.com/DPRNV or call Niki on 03 5454 7719

SUMMARY:Wellbeing Circles exploring Worry and Doubt
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly community Wellbeing Circles allow for purposeful conversations to explore topics relating to foundations of wellbeing.  \nThe sessions provide a unique opportunity to pause and consider your overall wellbeing\, connect with others\, explore these deep themes through the reading of quotations\, stories and writings and by discussing their implications on health and wellbeing.   \nWhen working with clients to achieve personal goals\, I find it can be helpful for them to link with others on a similar pathway.  Connecting within a small ‘community’ enables individuals to feel supported\, gain clarity and find a level of accountability.  \nExamples of topics – Giving\, A Sense of Time\, Detachment\, Service\, Wisdom\, Love\, Honesty\, Gratitude \nPlease register for the final sessions now so you don’t miss out on exploring these three topics: Wednesday 9 September @ 7:30pm with the Theme – Worry & Doubt \nWednesday 14 October @ 7:30pm with the Theme – Trustworthiness \nWednesday 11 November @ 7:30pm with the Theme – Generosity These New Pathways Wellbeing Circles are held monthly\, are free to clients\, the general public\, family and friends.  All are welcome.  Please register to attend and confirmation details for the next session will be sent to you.  \nWe provide a safe space to reflect and make connections with like-minded individuals.
