Feeling safe and secure with your horse
When you read Zen Connection with Horses, you will understand why your horse needs to feel safe and secure, for you to feel safe and secure too. Yes, you can read that again. That is what I said – for you to feel safe and secure, your horse has to feel safe and secure.
And the degree that you feel unsafe and insecure will depend on a combination of how good a rider you are and how great your horse’s need is.
So if I am right,what can you do to help your horse to feel confident, safe, and secure?
So, if you are one of those of us who experience any nervousness, anxiety, lack of confidence, feelings of not being safe or of insecurity when you are with your horse, then decide that you would like to notice “what it is that you can know or do” for your horse, to help them feel safe, secure and happy again. Crikey that was a clumsy sentence. I will need to get my editor to edit my blogs at this rate!
I promise you that it will work – taking any action that helps your horse feel more safe and secure, will have you feeling more confident, safe and secure too.
If you experience fear, nervousness, lack of confidence or insecurity around your horse, then have a bit of a go right now. You can get the quiet mind that will give you answers to how you can help your horse feel more safe and secure with this simple little excercise here.
Close your eyes and notice your breath as you breathe in and out. See if you can notice your heart beat. The idea is to use this to find a quiet mind and the answer will drift in when you are ready, no matter how long it takes. Just chill out and enjoy the quiet mind.
If you have a very busy mind, you may need to practice a quiet mind more often, before “what you can do to help your horse feel more safe and secure” drifts into your mind. No matter, it will take the time it takes – but it will happen.
If you want to fast track it, the audio lessons attached to Zen Connection with Horses takes you step by step through noticing when your horse starts feeling not OK – and then figuring out what action to take to help them.
