Lisa Peronne is an author and retreat leader and the creator of The Healing Horse Herd Method™.
In 2021, Lisa began sharing her knowledge by specializing in the profound healing power of horses through transformative workshops and weekend retreats. From these experiences, she developed her signature The Healing Horse Herd Method™, blending mindfulness, meditation, energy exchange, and the equine herd connection to create sacred spaces where humans and horses can meet in trust, presence, and mutual healing.
Today, Lisa is the author of Equine Connections and Horses as Healers and Teachers, and The Healing Horse Herd Method™ Manual. She has also created e-courses and leading in-person certification retreats for those called to this path. Her mission is simple yet profound: to guide people into deeper connection - with themselves, with horses, and the interconnectedness of nature.
