Finding natural power for race horses

Using the Zen Connection approach (unique communication) with our new thoroughbred horse Sunny, we unleashed  a huge sense of energy and power in her that just awed me.  It was seriously huge!  What do you think is possible when that power is harnessed with the joyfulness that we are committed to for her, on the race track?    

I have experienced this power with Sunny both at liberty and on line, while I have been helping her learn to move forwards freely and joyfully when asked, which I believe is the key to success with her on the racetrack.  (It’s certainly the opposite to what she was doing when she arrived here!)

How could she do her best when she was all round unhappy and sooo… busy resisting and fighting?  With the Zen Connection approach, we’re helping her re-program her reactions so that when she’s back under saddle, the job will be already done.

It stands to reason when we really think about it, that the bravery and cheerful enjoyment of their work that a horse needs to do their best on the race track, is not gained by force.

Maybe that’s why so many race horses are confused at what is wanted from them and very, very frightened. I hear confusion and fear, confusion and fear and sometimes anger, from horses every where I go.  And I believe that a horse feeling like this is the exact opposite of what will give people the best results from their racehorse.

There are many, many horses who show lots of promise in their first preparation, even some really good times.  And then those times start to fizzle out.  Small injuries appear – even big ones.  The horse goes either sour or bad tempered or sad or terribly, terribly resigned. 

And then they turn into this “sink hole” where you keep pouring your training time and money in, looking for that spark that you saw in them in the beginning, that is normally never to be seen again.

If you are an experienced horseman already in the industry and looking for an edge over the competition you can use the whole Zen Connection approach to find out how you can help your race horse unleash that power and joy that will make it possible for them to do their best.

Or if you are an owner who barely knows the front end from the back, you can learn how to communicate with your horse and find out what needs changing in order for them to be the very best that they can be.

“Zen Connection with Horses – a practical guide to inter-species communication” is the book and audio lesson set, that will show you how to “hear” your horses communicate, so that you can help them find that natural power and joy.  You could be downloaded and reading the electronic version of the book in minutes, with the audio lessons for your MP3 player following by snail mail or you can order your printed version of the book here.  Click here to get it now.
