Root & Rise Together CIC

🌿 Stress doesn’t hit all at once — it creeps in.
We push through busy days, ignore the tension building in our bodies, and before long that constant pressure can start to affect our health.

🐑 At Pause on the Farm, we help you break that cycle.
We teach simple, practical ways to recognise and manage stress before it makes you unwell — and we support your recovery if you’re already feeling the effects.

🌾 Nature slows the body.
🐐 Animals bring you back into the moment.
🧺 Gentle, sensory experiences help you breathe again.
🤝 And being welcomed just as you are makes everything feel lighter.

🌼 A small pause can make a big difference.

If you would like to know more please get in touch.

'Pause on the farm workshops''
McNeils Mill

Tis the season to be tired, la la la la la la la la LAMBING TIME!!

Here at Root & Rise, we may only be able to welcome visitors to our workshops across the summer months, but rest assured there is lots happening over the winter months to keep us busy. The cows have come home, our ladies are getting ready to lamb and we are applying for as much funding as possible to help make our courses accessible to all.

In Yorkshire, more and more of our local workers are taking around two weeks off each year due to stress, in fact 1 in 5 people! It's a reminder that wellbeing matters. Do you care enough about your employees to consider us?

2026 dates now available for our 'Pause On The Farm' workshop.

🌾 Root & Rise Together: Nature-Based Stress Management at McNeils Mill 🐑🐄🐐
At Root & Rise, we offer more than fresh air and open fields—we offer a place to breathe again.

Our cows, sheep, and goats aren’t just companions—they’re co-facilitators in healing. Their gentle presence, rhythmic movements, and quiet curiosity help calm the nervous system, soften anxious thoughts, and invite a slower pace.

🐄 Cows offer grounding and stillness—just standing beside them can ease tension and restore a sense of safety.
🐑 Sheep mirror calm and connection, helping guests feel seen and soothed without words.
🐐 Goats bring playful energy and lightness, reminding us that joy and laughter are part of recovery too.

Whether you're navigating stress, burnout, or simply seeking a moment of peace, our animal-assisted sessions are designed to reconnect you with your body, your breath, and the natural world.

🌿 Rooted in care. Rising in resilience.
🧡 You’re welcome here.

While cows, goats, and sheep may not respond as overtly as dogs, research shows they’re surprisingly perceptive when it comes to human emotional states.
