How Spiritstone began
Spiritstone grew from a wish to create a place where people could come home to themselves through land-based healing, horse connection, and cultural presence.

About Spiritstone
A place of welcome, healing, and relationship.
Spiritstone is rooted in Wâhkôhtowin (kinship), the understanding that we are all connected. Through horses, askî (land), and gentle guidance, families, schools, and community members are welcomed into a space of healing, learning, and belonging.
Our Story
The roots of Spiritstone.
Families, schools, and community groups can learn how the work is held with horses, land, culture, and care.
Why the horses matter
Mistatim (horse) offers honest feedback, quiet companionship, and powerful lessons in trust, boundaries, and confidence.
What visitors feel here
Many people come looking for healing, support, or a new way forward. What they often find is calm, connection, and a sense of being welcomed just as they are.
Guiding Principles
The work is guided by kinship, respect, and gentle connection.
