Step into the powerful energy of the Year of the Horse with clarity, calm and confidence at Sugar Beach Ranch. In many traditions, the Horse represents momentum, courage and forward movement. This experience invites you to pause first — to release stress, reset your nervous system and step into the year grounded and strong.
Guided by certified EFT practitioner Kellie Shields, founder of Tap & Thrive, this immersive one-day retreat blends Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) tapping with meaningful horse connection and nature immersion.
Often described as “emotional acupuncture,” EFT involves tapping on specific acupoints while addressing emotional challenges. This gentle yet powerful process helps reduce stress, shift emotional blocks and restore balance. Throughout the day, Kellie guides you through practical techniques you can confidently use in everyday life.
You’ll gain tools to:
• Manage stress and emotional overwhelm
• Break free from limiting beliefs
• Strengthen resilience and emotional balance
• Cultivate clarity, focus and confidence
A key part of the experience includes mindful time with our gentle herd (non-riding). Horses naturally support nervous-system regulation and emotional clarity, creating a deeply grounding complement to the tapping work.
Set across 60 acres of coastal paddocks just moments from South Ballina Beach, Sugar Beach Ranch offers the perfect environment to truly exhale. Open skies, salt air and space to breathe allow lasting shifts to take place.
What’s Included
• Expert-led EFT Tapping workshop
• Guided horse connection experience (non-riding)
• Mindfulness and somatic practices
• Nourishing seasonal catering
• Tea, coffee and refreshments
• Free time to explore the ranch
• Access to the 15m magnesium pool
Investment: $199 per person
Includes full-day facilitation, horse experience, catering and retreat access.
This experience is ideal for any woman feeling the weight of stress or change — and it also makes a deeply meaningful Mother’s Day gift. Instead of flowers, give time, tools and true renewal.
Start the Year of the Horse with momentum — clear, steady and ready to move forward.
