The Place of No Words
There is a place within us where all of life connects.
It begins with presence.
More than ever, humanity is curious, and thirsty to know the experience of connection. When you are willing to walk your walk and guide others on their journey, you accelerate your own journey and welcome ever-greater ease through simplicity
This two and a half day event will explore perspectives to help the mind find ease with emotions and feelings - this is the first realm of connection that horses connect with.
Join us June 27th - June 29th
at Steep Way Morgans in Newfane, VT!
What’s in the way of fluid connection?
The short answer is: fear and misunderstanding.
When a rider has a hard time feeling their horse, there is often a deep, internal struggle that keeps them from fully embodying or feeling part of their body. If they can't feel their body, they can't feel the horse. And the horse feels that stuckness.
What’s the missing piece?
Self-awareness. Feel. Intuitive clarity.
Connection is an “inside job.” Horses know it - they request it from us. The big question is: Do we have to go through emotional upheavals and bare our soul in front of a bunch of judgmental humans? No. Not at all. The Tools Kerri shares offer a profound gentleness that helps each individual cultivate a friendship between their mind, body and heart. This journey can be as light-hearted, graceful and kind as you can handle. :)
How does this help my horses?
Horses relate to us first through awareness, presence and energy. We know this intellectually, and we train to help our horses understand that it is connection we want. My approach is to OFFER CONNECTION FIRST rather than try to “get” it with our horses. Offering connection asks us humans to feel ourselves first, then share the feeling. Here is a story to illustrate what I’m talking about! It’s one thing to know this intellectually and another world entirely when we can feel it ourselves. Kerri’s work is a pathway to feel without fear or judgment. Horses love that.

Enjoy a review from Kelsey Maloney, host and participant in a event recently held at Rancho Agave Equestrian in San Diego, CA.
“The place of no words” is that fluid space where all of life has something in common. It is the place we are talking about when we use the word “connection.” It is a feeling that is innate, and it has never left you…
“My work helps people recognize how valuable and clear their intuitive communication can be with horses, with other people and most importantly, in their relationship with themselves. Inner harmony generates outer harmony. You’ll know it because you’ll feel it. And the horses are always happy to help us find our clarity.” - Kerri

Enjoy this recording of Kerri’s presentation at the inaugural Journey ON Podcast Summit, Nov 2022.
Kerri Lake opens the inaugural Journey ON Podcast Summit in San Antonio, TX, November 4, 2022. Her talk is titled “Being Human Differently.”
Our Format
Kerri deliberately offers as little structure as necessary until the group gathers and she has the opportunity to hear from participants. As she gets to know the participants, she is then able to craft the experience in a way that serves each participant uniquely and the group as a whole.
Day 1 (half day): This is the time to listen. Kerri will share an introduction, will then ask the participants to introduce themselves usually around two questions:
What inspired you to be here?
Where is your curiosity taking you these days?
Once she’s heard more from the participants, we will go out to meet the horses participating in the experience. The day closes with Kerri sharing a very simple tool of awareness..
Day 2 & 3: The day begins and ends with a group gathering with 1:1 participant sessions scheduled throughout the day.
Morning Gathering: Introduction, Perspectives (Simplicity & Communication), Learn tools for connection
1-1 Participant Sessions: Use your new awareness to be with horses and explore your senses
Closing Gathering: Sharing the experience, debrief, and discussion for how to apply this awareness in your everyday life.
The event fee provides you with 2.5 days of experience and guidance. We’ll have tea and snacks, and catered lunch for the two full days of our event. Participants are responsible for their own accommodation fees, fees for horses, breakfasts and dinners.

Emotions, Feelings & Judgment
Do you remember how it feels to be at home in your own skin? How does it feel to live with clarity rather than protection? Discover perspectives and tools that empower you to navigate empathic information and create graceful relationships.
The insights, perspectives and tools offered in this 2.5 day event guide you to a new level of clarity, generating a way of being that restores your trust in your own senses, clarifies the sensory information you are aware of, and expands your awareness to welcome more richness into your life.
Blending aspects of mindfulness, animal communication, listening, sensing, movement and simply being, you will discover how your presence creates a sense of safety in your own body, and how it simultaneously offers a sense of safety for others around you.
This is about learning how to walk differently in a familiar world, doing familiar things in perhaps a new way, connecting with your innate energetic gifts and creating life from the heart.
You’ll be offered very simple, very pragmatic tools to prioritize your awareness for intuitive information. You’ll have opportunities to build confidence in your discernment. You’ll get experience among people and horses to feel yourself communicating from the inside out and clarify your awareness of which energies/information are yours to address and/or transform.
If you have already attended another of Kerri’s events, you will find this event to be affirming and expansive. You will hear some of what you’ve already learned, but you will be able to use the information in new ways. Your creativity and confidence will only grow.
These tools, perspectives and experiences help you navigate emotions, your own emotions and those of others, so you can feel clarity in your relationships (with horses and people!). You come to know a sense of confidence in your communication, not because you know all the answers, but because you know how to use the information you have.
Welcoming a transformation into your genuine expression means you’ll get to use your awareness in new ways among familiar things. Shifting awareness can happen slowly or in big swooshes. It’s impossible to compare “big” movements with “small” movements - trying to think about it in linear terms just limits your experience and slows down the whole works! We’ll play together to generate the space for you to move yourself from your heart toward your heart.
The more willing you are to bring your real life to the conversation, the more movement and experience you give yourself through our conversations.
One of the seminal questions I’ve asked is “how can I be a human with humans in the same absence of judgment that horses are with humans?”
This event is an opportunity to actually experience yourself being among humans without judgment.
A future of harmony is in our own self-awareness.
We are at a point of evolution in how we relate to enlightenment, self-mastery, personal growth, healing, clarity and loving relationships. For thousands of years, the teaching has been about realizing that You are so much more than your body. Today, millions of people are aware that we are energy expressing through a body.
Our evolution accelerates when we begin to welcome all that we are into and through the body, starting right where our lives have us, right now.
Let self-awareness be the foundation on which you stand, the ground from which you apply your tools, and those you work with will begin to rise to meet you at the highest level of awareness you are willing to engage. The only barriers to flourishing relationships from this standpoint are the expectations and judgments you carry with you. To be without judgment is to be closer to how animals live in every moment. It is possible for humans to know and sense the absence of judgment in themselves, although it's admittedly unfamiliar. Let's play with it, and start to get some experience. A little experience can go a very long way.
The tools I share are a distillation of knowledge, awareness, and application through my total surrender to my life’s journey. I’ve had the support of horses and many people on this journey to embody my divine heart. Assisting facilitators and participants alike to greater sensory awareness benefits the whole of life in ripples beyond imagination. Each participant’s self-awareness and self-empowerment makes them infinitely more available to integrate, embody and express their divine, natural state of being.
With nothing to prove and nothing to earn, all are free to share their gifts for the benefit of the whole. Horses demonstrate this way of being, and humanity is finding perpetually more astute and creative ways to notice and adapt our awareness in kind. Horses have never had the opportunity to forget who they are. This is one of the greatest differences between animal consciousness and human consciousness.
“I feel fortunate to have attended the class with Kerri. She is a fantastic teacher and I learned a great deal that I can apply to all aspects of my life. I have been on the spiritual path for awhile and have listened to many great speakers but what she had to offer was truly unique and life changing. I really enjoyed her book as well. At the end of the last class all of those present sincerely shared with Kerri about how amazing and impactful the class was for them.”

“If you are trying to find answers to problems or situations, she will guide you through any blockages, allowing you to discover what is right for YOU not those around you, but you. In short, Kerri, gives you the opportunity to reconnect to your truth, to your heart; to feel and to believe. Kerri is truly special. I hope you have fun and enjoy working with her.”

“Kerri’s presence made me feel very much alive, and I knew she completely understood me without having even heard anything about my story. This made for a very safe environment. And playing with the tools Kerri presented to us, gave me the opportunity to look at some issues in my life from a different angle, giving me valuable insights and ways to take action towards the true me.”
