At Windhorse, we are dedicated to normalizing death, grief, and loss for all. Especially for children. We believe that when a society knows how to grieve, they know how to love.
Founded in 2025, Windhorse was born out of a search for how to normailze grief and death in society. After significant research, we determined that providing tools for teachers, students, and their caregivers would have a potentially significant impact.
WindHorse is a translation of the Tibetan word lungta. Tibetan Buddhist teacher, Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, describes WindHorse as riding the basic goodness in your life. He writes that raising this energy is "raising a wind of delight and power and riding on, or conquering, that energy. Such wind can come with great fiorce, like a typhoon that can blow down trees and buildings and create huge waves in the water. The personal experience of this wind comes from being completely and powerfully in the present. The horse aspect is that, in spite of the power of this great wind, you also feel stability. You are never swayed by the confusion of life, never swayed by excitement or depression. You can ride on the energy of your life."
We hope that the tools we provide to schools will serve grieving children by giving them stability in the midst of a storm.
