Healing the Land and the Heart: Our Wellness Vision
Lika has known hardship, but nature is the ultimate healer. At Štimac Family Estate, we have dedicated ourselves to a mission of healing through nature and rediscovering the joy in our surroundings.
Planning a Sanctuary for Sensory Connection
One of the most profound elements of our future estate is our commitment to Equine-Assisted Therapy. Both of my daughters ride horses, and this is another motivation for me to (re)build our estate, along with creating a point for return and gathering for the family so cousins from all over the world and our children can meet. My nephew is on the autism spectrum, and for kids like him, Equine-Assisted Therapy is showing real therapeutic effects.
While our stables are not yet built, the intent is already rooted in the soil. Our plans include:
- Certified Therapy Sessions: Tailored for children with autism and sensory sensitivities.
- A “Back to the Land” Retreat: Future sessions designed to provide deep rest and digital disconnection.
- Sensory-Friendly Design: Our architectural plans prioritize peace, low-stimulation environments, and natural materials.
We aren’t just building a pretty rural rental estate; we are building a place to heal. For now, the land itself provides the therapy—the silence, the wind through the grass, and the slow, honest pace of rural life.
