    Gratitude for the launch of Spring Reins of Hope

    Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 2:13 PM [General]

    On Wednesday, November 11, 2009 we officially launched SPRING REINS OF HOPE / Getting to the Horse of the Matter.

    It is all starting to sink in and so I wanted to take a moment to let everyone know that it really does take a village. WE is so much better than ME!

    My amazing partner, co-founder and director of mental health services - Dr. Maria Karavidas, PsyD (clinical psychologist) has been pivotal in creating our web content and materials. Spry Marketing in Austin TX has done an AMAZING job on our site, capturing just what we needed to express who we are. It really feels as if this project/dream is anointed in that many people have appeared just at the right time to help us put the pieces together. It is now happening and it is with sincere passion and deep gratitude that we will be seeking out our client base from the NY, NJ and Eastern PA area.

    I wish to express immense thanks to the following Spring Reins of Hope (SROH) team members! So the road is open now and so our our doors. Become a FAN! Search Spring Reins of Hope on Facebook!

    Artist Michael Colavito; for putting up with me and for your enduring love and support for me and my dream. I love you deeply.

    to my dearest MOM-Cat; for raising me to honor my passion and love for horses in spite of the roadblocks we faced. I love you so much! You are an amazing inspiration to me...you are my sister more than my Mom.

    Dr. Judith Shoemaker, DVM; for saving my beloved healer and turning on the light at the lighthouse - this was HUGE

    Dr. Maria Karavidas, PsyD; could not ever happen without you - so glad you are HERE

    Libby Corbin; for doing justice to the Colavito photo into our SROH logo - you rock!

    Jayce and Jack at SPRY MARKETING; for our amazing website, WOW! www.springreinsofhope.com

    At EAGALA; thanks to Lynn Thomas, Mickey DiGiacomo, Dr. Joseph Lancia, Mark Lytle, and Stace Green for your outpouring of support & encouragement for us to keep pushing and never give up

    To my family & friends; many have been so supportive and without those pep talks and little pushes I may have given up along the way - Thank you for not letting that happen... Mom, Dad & Margot, David & Marla, Mary Suhr, Janis Yakopovic, Gabriella Castillo, Lisa Marino, Elizabeth King, Katherine Heller, Torri Henderson, Roseanna DeMaria, Andrea Cornell, Lynnda Pollio, and so many more.

    To contacts in the media who didn't hesitate to promote this work and its benefits to people, thank you for getting the word out; Louie B Free, Frankie Boyer, Ilene Dillon, Lizz Sommars, Lori St James & Richard Stevens, Bulldog, Catherine Bradford, Kacey Morabito, Liz Dalton, Bonnie Grice, Travis Jackson, Jordan Rich, Tron Simpson, Pam Atherton, Jane Greer, Kate Daniels and many more.

    Linda & Allen Anderson, The Angel Animal Network; for choosing our story to be in the new book Horses With A Mission; Extraordinary True Stories of Equine Service (new world library, 9/2009) - the timing could not have been better!

    AND thank you to my HORSE, Spring Thaw; I don't even know what to say...without you none of this happens. Thank you for teaching me so much about myself and others. Thank you for so much fun (all the time, your sense of humor is hard to miss). Thank you for seeing my path and doing whatever it took to make sure I landed on it. I am sorry you had to get so sick in order for me to wake up and see it, I am sure you tried to show me in other ways...I am so happy I know you and that YOU chose ME to be your human! Its incredibly exciting to know that now I will be going to work with you - you are my colleague now! I love that!

    Thankyou to the Universe for lining all of this up at the perfect time, I know I argued with you on this but in the end you were right and everything happens exactly when it is supposed to. I am learning and getting better on the Faith, Trust and Leaping part. :)

    It is with peace, love and gratitude in my heart that I beckon everyone to follow your dreams - it does lead to happiness!

    Launching my dream biz - Spring Reins of Hope

    Wednesday, August 19, 2009, 3:18 PM [General]

    Greetings!

    I have not been on the site much lately as my partner and I have been working hard to launch our dream biz, an equine assisted therapy program called Spring Reins of Hope!

    We have spent the past few months feverishly working on web content - its much harder than I thought it would be, but we are nearing the finish line and hopefully will launch the site in the next month or so.

    I just wanted to reach out and say Hi y'all!

     

    SPRING REINS OF HOPE (Getting to the Horse of the Matter) is an EAGALA certified EAP/EAL model for equine assisted therapies. For the EAP (equine assisted psychotherapy) we focus on sessions for individuals, couples, and families, we also focus on sessions for behavioral and developmental issues for at-risk-youth and military veterans dealing with anxiety and PTSD.  For the EAL (equine assisted learning) we focus on body language, somatic, team building and leadership skills for both Corporate and Graduate Collegiate programs within the populations of Human Recourses, Sales/Marketing, Pre-Med, Pre-Law and Business Management.  This is very powerful and effective work that can accomplish a lot in a very short amount of time.  We are currently accepting clients and group sessions out of Gracefield Farm in Stewartsville, NJ.

    President Barack Obama

    Thursday, November 6, 2008, 12:19 PM [General]

    Well all my attention was on Grant Park baby!  I look at Obama like he is a political messiah!  His speeches are not scripted they come from his heart and brilliant mind, he means it all.  People feel that.  And might I ad that he is the most brilliant “community organizer” that this country has ever seen!!! (take that back to the drawing board Ms. Palin)! Of course this is a major huge marker for the black population, goes without saying and I can only imagine what it feels like.  I will say this though, at least in NY – he is a huge bright light of faith and hope to the white people also, the working class gets it, and gets him, and we LOVE him!!!! I have never had this experience in my lifetime where I have love for a political figure, but it grew for me along side the rest of the country and I prayed so very hard that he would win, and voted with more enthusiasm than I ever had – he is our hope and our future.  I cried several times during many of his speeches because he speaks with intelligence to he speaks TO the people and seeing how he directly effects the faces in the crowd is so moving…to watch the rest of the entire world celebrate with us made me cry more – it is beautiful; and I feel so lucky to be witnessing this. You know, I found out yesterday that I am losing my salary FT job (and will lose it on Friday, tomorrow), I found this out the day after Obama was elected – and yes it did make me panic and all – but I also have a sense of hope and faith that is so strong right now that it kept me from getting too upset…(I will be freelancing radio booking for Krupp and getting paid by the booking from now on – so every booking counts for me – and I thank you so much)… I now have hope that employment will get better, economy will be set back on track, so much good is coming back to the USA that I can be proud to live here again.  So, I didn’t plan to go off on a dissertation here but am so passionate about this (as many of us are) and am so happy, thrilled and relieved that AMERICA did the right thing this time!  I pray for the Obama family’s safety now.  That God protects him and his family in a golden bubble of light and divine protection from all evil and mal-intent.  Barack Obama has my vote in 2012! He is the man of men!371d36d75e05eda735858f8e467be99c

    This show is part one of a two-part series devoted to discussing how to remain 'ageless' in spite of your years.

     

    In spite of modern healthcare, we now have more disease than ever in our history. Ron will reveal the 5 keys we must use to ensure optimum health and lifelong vitality, while emphasizing the causes of disease and the methods of prevention.  

     

    He takes the mystery out of how the body operates, why it succumbs to disease and how health problems can be reversed.  Neither doctors nor medications alone can heal us- only our bodies can.  Ron believes that health is a gift and what we must do to give our body what it needs.

     

    Every moment, we are creating our own reality, including our state of health or disease. We create one or the other by how conscious and honoring we are of our bodies. Which one are you creating?www.conscioushealth.ca

    Sound Therapy on HHRN this week

    Wednesday, October 22, 2008, 1:27 PM [General]

    Wednesday – October 22, 2008
    7:00 PM Central  LISTEN LIVE OR LISTEN TO THE SHOW ARCHIVE 24/7: 

    www.blogtalkradio.com/healthandharmonynetwork

      THE ANCIENT ART OF SOUND HEALING (With Live On-Air Healing Meditation) GUEST:  Regina Murphy. Certified in many energy healing modalities, including Harmonic Medicine, EFT and Acutonics, she leads a research program with over 100 people to study sound, accupressure and energy psychology. 

     

    The modality of SOUND HEALING has been used for centuries by everyone from the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Africans, Chinese and throughout Native American and indigenous cultures.

    Harmonic medicine links ancient sciences and arts with 21st century healing methods and tools. This holistic modality uses sound and vibration to heal the body, mind, and spirit.  Since we are all energy beings and sound is vibration, we are able to respond and correct the imbalance of frequencies at every level of our being.

    Learn how practitioners today incorporate instruments, such as voice, crystal and ancient Tibetan bowls, bells, gongs, tuning forks, drums, chanting and toning to bring about a state of total wellness. The show will include a live, on-air healing meditation.  www.loveinactioninc.com

     

     

    Also, in the KHARMA KAFEGUEST:  Lauri Cloud, Founder of the Crystal Portal Conference

     

    On September 27, 2008 the spiritual community of Las Vegas was ground zero for one of the most amazing events in history.  Five years ago, Lauri was guided to create harmony on earth and on 9/27; she took the first step to bring peace, prosperity and harmony to the planet.   Lauri will share her experience, along with Regina Murphy, before she takes the event to New York, Washington DC and overseas.

     

    It would seem...from outward appearances, that our world is falling apart, says Lauri. IN REALITY...our world is finally coming together.
