EquineFlow®
We are a global team of passionate horse people with lived, acknowledged and processed trauma experience who help others use expansive cognition to drive progress in their communities and organizations from the bottom up, boots on the ground style, alongside horses. We coach, we train, we support, we encourage. We walk alongside you as you discover your path forward using proven modalities that maximize advanced cognition. Together we explore protective cognitive fixedness that was created by emotional injury, and intentionally stimulate neural pathways that allow advanced cognition, so you can design applied, strategic solutions that work. Permission based, client centered, self-directed, self-actualized, no judgement, and working with, not against the nervous system, are important concepts to us. The EquineFlow Approach helps you amplify agency, adaptivity, and ability by learning how to reliably access an integrated part of your nervous system that excels in advanced strategic thinking, called Omnicognition. When you create the conditions for mental agility, adaptivity and agency, sustainable power emerges, and everything you long for at the core of you being, can become reality. You can direct your omnicognition to growth individually and collectively, nationally and globally, both at home and at work. |
Within the horse guided portions of the EquineFlow Approach, facilitators work only on the ground with untethered horses at liberty, primarily in their natural habitats. EquineFlow is supported by the horses, but not reliant on the horses, and only work with horses who volunteer to participate. Client decide if and when the horses show up in their sessions. Some work with horses every session. Others never. The client's nervous system leads the way. The approach is client centered, client determined, and permission based. Sessions toggle between introspection and outward play to build a functional connection between both and as a result, maximize the power of thought. The EquineFlow Approach has successfully supported hundreds of people of all walks of life in moving forward in life in a process of deep, authentic self-actualization. The EquineFlow Approach is non-clinical and non-medical. It is not intended or suitable for psychotherapy, psychiatry, or counseling, and is free of assessments, diagnostics and treatment plans.

About the Founder
EquineFlow was founded by Dutch expat Monique Ravesloot. In 2005, Monique worked for a Dutch consultancy group and as a business consultant coached C-suite executives in optimizing efficiency in their large multinationals. During this time, she participated in a corporate leadership training event at a horse farm. The positive effects of the training were unparalleled and Monique vowed to one day bring this work into the mainstream. A few years later, as an expat living in US, Monique left the corporate world. She teamed up with a neuroscientist to develop a horse guided human transformation approach and began formally using the approach with clients in 2010.
In 2018 people began requesting certification in the EquineFlow approach. In 2019 the first 6 Certified EquineFlow Practitioners graduated from the EquineFlow University. During the COVID19 pandemic 16 more students were trained in the approach. In 2023 EquineFlow is adding two new EquineFlow campuses in Siler City, and in the Netherlands, to accommodate international students. In 2024 EquineFlow will launch a virtual EquineFlow University to facilitate wider flexibility and accessibility in e-learning. By then there will be 35 trained EquineFlow Practitioners with 6 nationalities. Also in 2024 EquineFlow will start quantative research studies to measure the efficacy of the EquineFlow approach.
