the reciprocity of sentience and presence

June 12 - 15, 2025
Location: The Seventh Sense Care Collective with a Half-day at 13 Hands Equine Rescue
13 Hands Equine Rescue invites you to a unique 3.5-day course facilitated by Karen Bellone, death doula, educator, and founder of Seventh Sense, with a special afternoon session by Jennifer Cohen Harper of Mindfulness with Horses. This workshop is to develop the innate abilities we all possess - that of sentience and presence, and how they intertwine to reveal the power of our own true nature. This event is designed for anyone, especially those who care for the dying—doulas, hospice workers, nurses, and caregivers. On Friday, join Jennifer Cohen Harper for a half day at our rescue to connect with our horses through mindfulness, awareness, and compassion. Learn to build attunement and non-verbal communication with these sensitive beings, enhancing your ability to be present and hold space.
