We often find ourselves asking, "Who's healing whom?" At Metaphorse, the answer is beautifully both. This delightful paradox is at the core of our work, where the lines between healer and healed blur, creating a synergy of recovery that is truly transformative.
Nestled in the breathtaking embrace of Spring Canyon in Montrose, Colorado, a remarkable alchemy of healing unfolds daily. Here, where rugged beauty meets compassionate care, Metaphorse stands as a beacon of hope and transformation. Our motto isn't just a catchy phrase—it's the beating heart of our mission: "We rescue horses who rescue people." This simple yet profound statement, set against the backdrop of Colorado's awe-inspiring landscape, encapsulates a revolutionary approach to healing that has transformed countless lives, both human and equine.
Imagine a place where the broken find wholeness, where silent understanding is triumphant over words, and where the power of connection transcends species. This is Metaphorse—a sanctuary where rescued horses and hurting humans embark on a journey of mutual healing, each becoming the unlikely hero in the other's story of redemption.
What sets Metaphorse apart is not just our innovative approach to healing, but the palpable joy that permeates every interaction, every breakthrough, and every small victory celebrated on our grounds. Here, healing isn't a somber, clinical process—it's a vibrant, life-affirming journey filled with moments of wonder, laughter, and profound connection.
Founded in 2014 by Jody Nixon, a certified instructor in Equine-Facilitated Learning and Human Development, Metaphorse was built with a mission to bring retired horses and humans together to create lasting, transformative change. Gounded in the profound healing potential of the horse- human relationship, we've pioneered innovative approaches to emotional healing, personal development, and therapeutic care. Our nonprofit is small but mighty and we have big hearted ambitions:
Jody's rare certification in the Masterson Method elevates our equine care to an art form, unlocking new dimensions of healing for both horses and humans. This advanced technique allows us to communicate with our equine partners on a profound level, enhancing every aspect of our therapeutic work.
