You just have to show up.
The horses do the rest.
Ground-based equine wellness experiences on a working farm in the North Carolina foothills.
Something in you is exhausted.
Not just tired. Exhausted.
The kind that sleep doesn't fix.
You've tried the meditation apps. You've done the breath work. You've read the books. And maybe some of it helps for a little while.
But something is still missing.
You need something that doesn't require you to try harder. Something that meets you exactly where you are. Something that works even when you have nothing left to give.
You’re in the right place.
"I had no idea what I was getting into. I'm not really a horse person at all. I laid down and these horses just came right over and started checking me out. I didn't have to do anything except lay there and breathe. No phone. No thinking. By the end I felt so relaxed — full body, brain-finally-shut-up relaxed. And here's the thing: it felt like maybe 15 minutes went by. It was the whole session. Time literally disappeared. If you're thinking about it, just do it. You won't regret it." — Maria
"I went into this thinking it was probably going to be a little out there. I'm studying to be a chiropractor, so I tend to be skeptical. But something just shifted. My brain turned off for a while and honestly that never happens. The nervous system piece is legit — I'm learning about this in school and what's happening out there with those horses is the real deal. I came in a skeptic and left a believer." — Jason, Chiropractic Student
"My husband and I did this session together and it was honestly a wonderful experience. Lying on the massage tables in the horses' electromagnetic field felt incredibly peaceful, and just being in their presence was calming in a way that is hard to explain. At one point, one of the horses stood over my husband for quite a while, almost like she was meditating with him. The horses seemed to know exactly where they needed to be and what each of us needed in that moment. I left feeling lighter, more grounded, and very grateful. This is something I plan to make a regular part of my life." — Kristen

HEY, I’M ERICA.
I am a former LA food business founder turned farmer and I spent the last five years learning how to slow down.
Presence Practice was born out of my own healing. During one of the hardest years of my life I started lying down next to my horses.
Not riding. Just being with them.
And something shifted that I couldn't explain until I started researching the science behind it.
