Wera facilitates harmonious living, natural relaxation practices, and human emotional healing journeys through the holistic, traditional Japanese and Tibetan methods. In her work, she explores the equine's natural healing powers through hippotherapy and Equine Assisted Therapeutic Exercises to get a better picture, how do horses help us stay grounded and heal on many levels, in the current fast-paced times, even more than ever before.

Feedback from participants in previous editions:

“Weronika's work with the herd has been valuable for me. They helped me understand something simple, yet profound: you can communicate with horses—you can simply ask them. Through her guidance as a healer, I've experienced the interconnectedness of all living beings.” - Jennifer, OSTA
