M**S is back from vacation and hit the ground running this week!

Who do you think is the most tired and why is it Roxy?🐴💜

In honor of Juneteenth,
Why not come to M**S and let our horses help set your mind free

I think one of the reasons horses heal people is that horses do not care who you were yesterday.

They do not know your resume.

They do not know your failures.

They do not know your reputation.

They do not know how much money you have.

They do not know how many followers you have.

They do not know whether other people think you are successful.

They meet you here.

Now.

In this moment.

And there is something profoundly liberating about that.

Humans spend so much of life carrying stories.

Stories about ourselves.

Stories about each other.

Stories about who deserves love.

Who deserves respect.

Who deserves belonging.

Who deserves another chance.

But horses seem largely uninterested in stories.

They care about presence.

Congruence.

Honesty.

Safety.

You can stand beside a horse carrying decades of regret and the horse will not ask where you've been.

You can arrive with a broken heart and the horse will not ask what you did wrong.

You can show up exhausted from trying to be everything for everyone and the horse will not ask why you haven't tried harder.

The horse simply encounters the being standing in front of them.

And perhaps that is why time with horses can feel so sacred.

For a little while, we get to step outside the stories.

The old identities.

The successes.

The failures.

The masks.

And remember that beneath all of that, there is something simpler.

A living being.

Meeting another living being.

Nothing to prove.

Nothing to defend.

Nothing to become.

Just this moment.

Just this life.

Just this quiet opportunity to be exactly who we are.

My Aunt, Karalee Longtoe
(--7/2/1976 ~ 6/6/2017),
is the inspiration for Me & My Shadow
Wellness Center. She loved animals, nature, photography, and most of all her son, Jace.
Her favorite color was purple and butterflies held a significant meaning for her.

My Aunt Kara battled with addiction throughout most of her life. She managed
to eventually turn her life around and became
a Certified Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor in order to try to help adolescents who found themselves trapped in similar circumstances. Unfortunately, addiction pulled her back into its ugly grasp and she started huffing. Signs of her relapse were noticed
and reported, but the 'system' failed her...
​
Her 5 year old son found her
on her bedroom floor one morning, succumbed to her addiction.

According to Substance Abuse And
Mental Health Services Administration,
"Mental health problems can sometimes lead to alcohol or drug use, as some people with
a mental health problem may misuse these substances as a form of self-medication."
No child should ever have to experience finding their parent like Jace did!

Help is available!
Reach out to us today, before it is too late!
