🌿 For the woman who does it all, this afternoon is for you.

For the woman who's always caring for others, juggling responsibilities, and moving from one thing to the next. When was the last time you gave yourself permission to simply be?

✨ The Grounded Woman: An Equine Wellness Retreat is an invitation to step away from the demands of everyday life, put down your phone, and spend an afternoon reconnecting with yourself, nature, and the gentle presence of equines.

Together with Katie Ferm and Cat Markosky, you'll enjoy an afternoon of sound healing, guided meditation, journaling, warm tea, and mindful connection with miniature donkeys and ponies.

No rushing. No expectations. Nothing to accomplish.

Just two hours to unplug, breathe, and find your way back to a more grounded place.

🍂 Saturday, November 14 | 2–4 PM
📍 STAT Ligonier Therapeutic Center
🌿 $85 per person | Limited to 10 participants

Register by November 10.

Presented by STAT Ligonier Therapeutic Center in collaboration with The Village Center for Holistic Therapy.

Sometimes, the most meaningful thing you can do is make a little space for yourself.

Also for disabled veterans and other disabilities in addition to ASD.

Most autism families have never heard of this.

The Access Pass is a free lifetime pass to every US national park, plus national forests, wildlife refuges and other federal sites. It’s for any US citizen or resident with a permanent disability that limits a major life activity. Any age.

Many autistic children and adults qualify. You need:

🪪 A photo ID
📄 A signed doctor’s letter saying the disability is permanent and describing how it limits daily life, or a benefits letter from Social Security, the VA or state vocational rehab

Get it in person at more than 1,000 federal sites (free), online through the USGS store (processing fee, about three weeks), or as a digital pass on recreation.gov.

Autism isn’t an automatic yes. Ask your child’s doctor for a letter that describes limitations, not just a diagnosis.

Which park would you take them to first? 👇
