Very much looking forward to this event in October.
Have you ever noticed your horse responding to your nerves before you've even realised you're carrying them?
We're excited to welcome Rachael Marshall to the Fireside Conversations at the Cowgirls Mini Gathering 2026.
Rachael is a Certified Breathless Expeditions Level 1 Breathwork Instructor, Cold Water Immersion Instructor and horsewoman with a PhD in Biological Sciences. Her work focuses on helping people better understand their nervous system so they can build resilience, improve wellbeing and thrive in both life and horsemanship.
As riders, our horses often feel what we carry before we've even named it ourselves. Tension, nerves, overwhelm, excitement and uncertainty can all show up in our bodies long before we recognise them.
During the Gathering, Rachael will guide participants through a gentle breathwork experience designed to help riders slow down, settle their nervous system and reconnect with themselves.
Participants will learn practical techniques they can use before riding, after a challenging session, around the campfire, or anytime they need to come back to centre.
No experience is needed.
Just an invitation to pause, breathe and reconnect.

Have you experienced breathwork before? We'd love to hear what it has helped you with.
