Did you know that the heart of the horse provides a number of health benefits to humans?  Literally!  On top of all the support they offer us for being better humans in relationship with ourselves and each other, the unique vibrations and size of the horse’s heart has a number of physical health benefits that involve providing regulation for our nervous system.  Spend just a few minutes within 5 feet of a horse and you will feel your heart rhythm shift into a more regulated state which is the starting point for the rest of your nervous system and that is the biggest influential factor for the limbic system and immune system. 

​

The E-volving Hearts Wellness Farm provides free and donation based offerings for educators, mental health professionals, and other wellness professionals who are on the front lines helping our community to heal and prosper following Hurricane Helene and other traumatic events. We also specialize in providing support for parents and those navigating chronic illness.  However, we believe everyone can benefit from developing and experiencing a healthier relationship with their nervous system and thus we welcome anyone who is willing to show up and receive this Medicine.  (Please note that because we partner with rescue horses, there may be some limitations to who we can allow in the pasture and therefore we do assess the fit for both the horse and human.)  

​

In addition to our Wellness Farm that is located in Old Fort, NC, we continue to partner with You Are Herd in Weaverville as well as rescue organizations across the country.  We will also be launching our Community Outreach initiatives where we will bring the miniature horses to schools, programs, organizations, conferences, and other community events spreading the somatic benefits and pure joy of being around horses.  

 

At E-volving Hearts we only adopt horses from reputable rescue organizations who are in alignment with our “horse first” values and principles.  We avoid supporting rescues who support “kill-pen” schemes as we, along with the ASPCA and other horse advocacy groups, understand that financially supporting these auctions only keeps them alive and harms more horses.  Because we only adopt (verses shop) donations to our organization also help to support the rescue organizations we partner with as adopters and future fosters.

​

Our goal is to achieve our non-profit status by 2026 which will allow us to diversify our funding options in order to continue offering free and low cost support to our community and beyond.  

​

Thank you for taking the time to learn about our work and we hope to see you out to pasture soon!

​

Lots of Love from Kel and the herds!
