Home safe to my beautiful husband and pups after another inspiring few days of coaching up in the Shoalhaven area. ☺️
The “work” of transforming is a slow burn with bursts of breakthrough and moments of frustration and elation without a doubt. But if we look at US and dig deep into what is holding us in brace, keeping us from connecting and turning loose to ourselves, our bodies, our hearts and our horses, we discover things we may not have imagined to be possible…❤️
I also made a new friend, a mini horse lol 😝 in the shape of a 6 mth old Great Dane named Loki! Thanks to all the students, and my hosts Kirsty and Jess, life has thrown a lot of challenges at many of you in the last several months as it has to me too…but “still we rise”…keep going! Xx

“I know you think you understand what you thought I said but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant”
-Alan Greenspan

When people can’t be “in communication” and able to hear the point of view or legitimate experience of another without feeling threatened, offended or needing to attack, it is a reflection of where they are at not a reflection on their target.
Just because YOU don’t or can’t understand, or have simply not experienced the “collection” being referred too does not mean it is not true…there are many things in this life that have been denied to even exist or be possible by humans, until some brave soul or genius “proves” it to be so.

There is “what we know”, then “what we know we don’t know” and then “what we don’t know we don’t know”….please pause and think before just reacting…❤️🙏

Respect where it is undoubtedly due, thank you for your work and courage Manuel Jorge de Oliveira.

Looking forward to our Mini Clinics and lessons at lovely South Wind Equestrian starting on Friday afternoon!
Please try to arrive at least an hour before our session times start so your horse can rest a little and you can get prepared.
You will need a rope halter and 12” lead line, all your usual riding gear, a dressage whip or training flag, helmet etc and obviously feed for your horses if they are staying.
We will meet at 12.30 in the kitchen/seating area on Friday to have a cuppa and start our afternoon session. And 8.30 on the Saturday/sunday sessions. 🙂
Please feel free to ask if I’ve missed anything you need to know!
Cheers Tamara x

There is so much to find in that powerful moment of WAITING. What is it we are resistant to or frightened of in those moments where we aren't "DOING" something?  I have been thinking a lot on this and considering how it can be the same experience we have in a conversation, what we

“The best training takes place within the space of a deep conversation. A good conversation can only be held if you listen. The horse is always listening, is always responding with feedback. It is our responsibility to be an aware listener, and in this manner we can converse in response, not reaction, to the horse.”

BE FEARLESSLY AUTHENTIC.

Contribute more than you criticize.
Take the risk of being misunderstood.
Walk your talk.
Because in a society that is constantly asking you to conform, those that have the courage to be their authentic selves change everything.
Authenticity requires a lot.
It asks you to be vulnerable.
Transparent.
And to have integrity.

Authenticity comes with risks.
The risk of honoring your authentic self vs. the pressure to be socially accepted.
However, despite its challenges.
Authenticity moves mountains.
Everything changes when you begin to emit your own frequency.
So begin today to practice.
To make conscious choices of how you want to live.
To make a conscious choice to show up and be real.
To choose to be honest.
And allow your true self to be seen.
