The Silent Healing Power Of Horses

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

 by Angel Wings Wellness

Grounding and Nervous System Healing

Spending time with horses has a calming effect on the nervous system. The rhythm of their movement, the warmth of their presence, and the quiet of the barn or pasture all contribute to a sense of grounding.

For people dealing with stress, burnout, anxiety, or trauma, this can be incredibly restorative. Being outdoors, engaging the senses, and connecting with a large, gentle animal creates a safe space where the body can begin to unwind.

You don’t have to “do” anything complicated. Simply standing beside a horse, brushing them, or walking together can shift your entire state.

Building Trust and Boundaries

Horses are honest communicators. They won’t respond to force or inconsistency, but they will respond to clarity and calm leadership. This makes them powerful teachers when it comes to boundaries and trust.

Through guided equine wellness sessions, people learn how to:

  • Set clear, respectful boundaries
  • Communicate without words
  • Develop confidence and self-trust
  • Stay present in the moment

These are skills that translate directly into everyday life—relationships, parenting, work, and personal wellbeing.

Music On Meetinghouse Green

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

Dear Friends of the Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation,

Our iconic summer concert series is just around the corner, providing Friday evenings filled with music

and our community on the green!  As you can see we have a wonderful season ahead and ready to roll, 

featuring terrific local musicians and delicious food for your picnicking pleasure.  

Each free concert benefits a different local non-profit via free-will donations.  Over $18,000 was raised

last year to support their important work.  Our motto is “having fun while doing good” and there were

often over 275 of us each evening listening to music and helping to sustain our Cape Ann neighbors.

Presenting this unique series depends solely upon the generosity of Sponsors like you!

 Your personal, or business, name will be featured on our season cards, posters and publicity at one of

the giving levels below.  It’s a great way to stretch your charitable giving and show how much you care.

Pease be as generous as possible: expenses have gone up and 100% of donations from the audience

are given to our partner non-profits until the last concert with Henri Smith to benefit the Meetinghouse. 

 $4,000+    Palladium

$2,000      Platinum

$1,000      Gold

$   500      Silver

$   250      Bronze 

 

The quickest and easiest way to be a summer series Sponsor is via credit card using this link:

https://gloucestermeetinghouse.org/summer-concerts

 

Or you can send a check to GMF, 10 Church Street, Gloucester, MA 01930

(The GMF is a 501(c)(3) organization and all contributions are tax-deductible.)

Deepest thanks for your support,
