Connecting with Cows
Facilitated by the Gaushala Team at Sadhana Forest, every Saturday at 10 AM. Offered as a gift from Sadhana Forest, with no charge.
A one-hour healing experience for both cows and people, interacting with cows in a gentle, consensual, and loving way.
Spending time in this way with cows could be a very loving experience for them and a powerful mirror for us. Their calm presence invites us to return to our own stillness, to quiet the mind, and to open the heart. This experience can be deeply grounding, healing, and nourishing. It may ease anxiety, foster a sense of safety, and gently awaken qualities of empathy, presence, and calm parts of ourselves that are often forgotten in the busyness of daily life.
What to Expect:
- Guided observation to understand the cows’ body language and their different personalities and behaviors.
- Understanding how animals give consent and set their boundaries.
- Learning how to approach and interact with the cows in a way that is gentle, and enjoyable for all involved.
- Brushing the cows mindfully as a practice of relaxation, and healing for both the cows and oneself.
Take a peaceful pause at Sadhana Forest where cows live freely and are deeply respected as sentient beings, and rediscover your connection with all life. The dedicated and experienced Gaushala team will guide you through this experience.
During the session the team will also share the individual stories of the cows, how they came to join the Gaushala, and their history before that. Hearing their journeys can deepen our sense of connection, empathy, and appreciation for these gentle beings and their resilience.
You are most welcome to join us for a whole-food breakfast at 9 AM which is also shared as a gift, and after the 10 AM workshop stay with us for the rest of the Saturday’s program.
We hope to see you soon!
