Hi, I’m Andrea!
Thank you for visiting Andrea Bonett Holistic and discovering more about Holistic Health for Horse & Rider! Allow me to share a little. My background and formal education is in Exercise Physiology. For a large part of my career I was a certified and licensed Athletic Trainer providing sports medicine support for middle school through professional level athletes. My passion for teaching started right after high school at a local gym as an aerobics instructor. Assisting others with their physical health is an important gift I’ve always wanted to share. Over the years I spent countless hours working my own body physically. Then a semester in college spent with a yoga teacher, from India, introduced me to the idea that the mind and spirit, not the body alone, are critical components in our overall wellness.

Why The Holistic Approach?
Holistic philosophy is the comprehension of the parts of something as being intimately interconnected.

Connect to yourself
Our mind, body and spirit needs to be tended as a whole in order for us to live a life that encompasses our joy and passions. This is what I would like to help you experience!
Making the Connection
Using yoga, reiki, meditation, and mindfulness tools as complementary practices we can support your purpose and presence in life. This in turn enables you to experience the calm, clarity, and centeredness that comes from living holistically.
I know what you are thinking. Connecting the mind, body, and spirit sounds great! What about the horses?
My love of animals has been part of my essence since childhood. My passion for horses evolved for me a bit later. After suffering many personal traumas I was introduced to the healing power of horses. Their sensitivity and knowing were a balm for my emotional wounds that I knew would be a part of me forever. As I incorporated my own yoga, reiki, and mindfulness practices in my holistic health journey, I noticed how the shift in me began to reflect not only during my time in the saddle but any time overall that I spent with my horses. As I was experiencing my own evolution, my horses became more receptive to my energies and the healing circle between us just kept going. This shift is something that I believe everyone should experience, especially those whose lives are interconnected to their horses.
