“You do nothing with your horse.”
Sometimes the horse needs to be doing nothing.
Sometimes they need the pressure of timelines and goals taken off completely.
Sometimes they need to just be enjoyed as a pasture puff, living life just being a horse and being groomed and doted on, with no expectation,
Sometimes “doing nothing” is the ticket to getting the horse to a point mentally and physically where they are capable of doing “something.”
Sometimes horses are happiest just “doing nothing” forever and they don’t owe us labour.
It can and should be normalized to enjoy your horse simply being a horse.
So, “doing nothing” isn’t really “doing nothing,” it’s giving your horse the time and space they need to decompress.
And, contrary to how it sounds, it can actually be doing an awful lot to rehabilitate your horse and heal their mind and body
So, here’s to the equestrians who are currently “doing nothing” with their horses.
I’m sure your horse appreciates you for giving them the time they need.
