2026 Year Of The Horse : Women's Empowerment Retreat
A multidimensional, women-centered retreat blending equine connection, trail riding, somatic grounding, meditation, and spiritual empowerment in the high desert.
Surrounded by the quiet majesty of California’s high desert, this intimate retreat at Knob Hill Ranch invites you into a healing journey guided by horses, nature, and soul-led embodiment.
Over the course of the weekend, you’ll move through a uniquely layered experience that begins on the ground - meeting the ranch’s extraordinary horses, learning to read their energy, and feeling your own reflected back to you.
Horses are pure presence. They mirror truth, open the heart, and help us return to our inner strength without force.
Under gentle guidance, you’ll build trust, confidence, and connection in a way that feels safe, empowering, and deeply personal.
From there, we move into the saddle for a privately guided trail ride through Joshua Tree’s wide-open desert landscapes.
The rhythm of horseback riding, the spaciousness of the Mojave, and the immense sky above create a natural reset for the nervous system.
This part of the journey tends to awaken clarity, courage, and a sense of innate capability that stays in the body long after the ride is over.
In the evenings, we gather for guided sound healing, fire ceremony, and stargazing, and a powerful visualization meditation inspired by my soulmate horse, Tuxedo.
This meditation is a centerpiece of the retreat: a mystical yet grounded experience where you journey into the heart, body, and wisdom of the horse - receiving messages, gifts, and energy that support your life’s next chapter.
It is an initiation into self-trust, empowerment, and a renewed sense of who you are.
Throughout the retreat, you’ll be held with trauma-informed care, softness, presence, and deep respect for your personal process.
My work is shaped by surviving profound loss - divorce, cancer, the death of my mother, the passing of my beloved horse Tuxedo, and losing my home in the California fires - and discovering that animals, nature, meditation, and sound were the medicines that soothed my soul and healed me from the inside out.
THE RETREAT + PAMELA ROBINS AS YOUR GUIDE
This retreat is a rare, intimate experience led by Pamela Robins - horsewoman, trauma-informed healer, sound healing practictioner, astrologer, and author of the book Meditating with Animals.
Pamela spent 13 years bonded with her soulmate horse, Tuxedo, who completely transformed her life.
Even after his passing, he continues to guide, teach, and move through the work Pamela now shares with others.
The entire horse-embodiment experience offered in this retreat was inspired by what he taught her about presence, power, intuition, and the unbreakable bond between humans and horses.
Horses have an extraordinary ability to mirror who we are. When we meet them on the ground, they reflect our inner state with stunning clarity by helping us regulate, feel, soften, or rise.
When we move into the saddle, something even deeper happens: we access our strength, our courage, our worth, and the part of us that remembers how powerful we truly are.
This retreat blends both worlds - connection on the ground and guided trail riding through Joshua Tree’s wild, sacred landscape.
The experience is multidimensional:
Grounded connection and relationship - building with the horses
Beautiful, guided trail riding with expert wranglers
A signature Horse Embodiment Meditation, channeled through years of partnership with Tuxedo, designed to help you become the horse, receive its gifts, and anchor them into your energy field for all time
Nervous system–informed facilitation rooted in safety, intuition, and emotional attunement
Healing through nature, presence, and sound
Horseshoe Blessing + Crafting Ritual, where each woman creates an intention-wrapped horseshoe - a talisman of protection and empowerment to take home as a reminder of the gifts received in the desert and the energy of the Year of the Horse.
Pamela brings decades of spiritual practice, but also the lived experience of surviving cancer, navigating divorce, losing her home in a wildfire, navigating the death of loved ones, and rebuilding her life through the medicine of animals, nature, meditation, and sound healing.
Everything she teaches is embodied, lived, and integrated. This retreat is a reclamation. A remembering. A homecoming to your strength, softness, intuition, and inner truth, held by the wisdom of horses and the vast desert sky.
LOCATION
Nestled in the quiet high desert just minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, Knob Hill Ranch sits on a ridge surrounded by wide-open sky, sweeping mountain views, and untouched desert landscape.
The ranch is located in one of the most peaceful, spacious pockets of Joshua Tree - far enough away to feel truly removed from the noise of daily life, yet close enough to town for easy access.
The land itself feels ancient and restorative. Sunrises stretch across the open valley, evenings glow with soft desert light, and at night the sky fills with stars so bright it feels like a canopy.
The ranch is bordered by riding trails, gentle hills, and quiet walking paths, making it an ideal place to reconnect with nature, slow down, and drop into your body.
The main ranch house is filled with natural light and warm, grounded desert textures.
Its large open-concept living room with vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a central fireplace creates a beautiful, serene container for meditation, sound healing, and group connection.
Outdoor spaces include a fire pit, lounging areas, and views of the horses moving through their day.
A private Casita offers solitude and stillness, while the Wrangler House adds additional cozy accommodations just steps away.
Everywhere you wander on the property, you feel the presence of the desert - quiet, vast, and deeply supportive.
Knob Hill Ranch is a place where people soften.
Where the land holds you, the horses reflect you, and the desert gives you room to breathe again.
It’s the perfect home base for a transformational weekend of healing, sound, nature, and connection.
