Equine Bond Helping you and your horse connect, hear, listen and learn together including personal development

My focus is on helping you strengthen your relationship and confidence with yourself and your horse. A session for you and your horse will be tailored according to the combination of both your needs. We will look at the history, the current situation and also what time, energy and effort you are able to commit to. Sometimes just changing one small thing can make a big difference, so my focus is to

try to understand what is important to you and what is the most problematic for you both. Sometimes, it is not the thing we think it is that needs to change. I will then help you learn the relevant Ttouches and exercises that resonate with you and that will help your horse also. As part of the programme, I offer ongoing telephone and email support to help you in between sessions. I will happily work with your vet, physio, chiropractor and other professionals so please obtain referral/approval from your vet prior to the consultation. You can also have a facilitated learning session with your horse, in whichever location you wish, whether it be in the stable, yard, field or even on a walk. These sessions give you the opportunity to experience another side of your relationship and gain a completely different perspective to your current thoughts.

Yesterday we received some very sad and shocking news that Sarah Fisher had passed away. The space that she created at Tilley Farm for us all to learn and grow in is really quite unique. Such a haven from ordinary life and and somewhere that I found myself in nearly 18 years ago when experiencing the most painful time. Somewhere that I made incredible friends and made life changing decisions in. Whilst learning the already amazing TTouch, Sarah would come in to our sessions and add her brilliance. Her insights were enlightening and compassionate towards all animals, opening our minds and hearts a little bit further to understanding what could be going on in the body of that particular animal. Its not possible to unsee or unhear after that. Many friends and professionals have shared their thoughts today and the reverberations go wide and far into the animal training world. So many animals and humans have had their lives touched and changed by interactions and learnings from Sarah. 'Do sweat the small stuff' is the phrase that comes to mind. Watching how a horse chews their hay says so much. If you see something that is ever so slightly odd or different and your horse is experiencing other 'issues' then follow it through. It may be the key to bringing comfort and relief.

So, I'm in the process of creating a short online course provisionally entitled The Perfect Paddock - Creating your horse's lifestyle. It is designed to help you gain clarity on what you would like for your horse's home whilst taking into consideration your needs too. Its the right course for you if you are feeling very stuck or stressed or even overwhelmed around the options. I am looking for 5 people to trial it for me in return for some feedback and ideally longer term feedback in relation to the decisions you end up making. If you are interested then please message me or email [email protected].

This is one of the modules from my Love Your Horse, Love Yourself programme that will be running again in the Spring of next year.

And...what support or resources do you need in order to do this? ....just because we know what to do doesnt mean its always easy.

It’s so easy to get caught up in what’s not working — the barking, the pulling, the reactivity, the perceived "stubbornness" or "resistance". When we live or work with animals, it’s natural to notice the things we’d like to change to make our lives easier.

When a student brings an animal to a training we invite them to introduce them to the group. Their name, age, breed, level of training a little background, why they came to the workshop - which invariably leads to discussing some challenges, physically, mentally or emotionally. It is totally understandable to highlight the things we want to change about an animal's behavior - those difficulties are usually what drives us to learn more and do better BUT we always remind guardians to pause and acknowledge what they love about their animals, too.

Sometimes, behavior can overshadow personality in our minds — yet behavior is simply a reflection of how an animal is feeling and responding to the world around them. It’s not who they are.

Taking a moment to remember the gifts, quirks, and qualities you appreciate helps you approach challenges with more calm and compassion. It builds self-control, helps you take things less personally, and reminds you to give your animal (and yourself!) the benefit of the doubt.

The next time you find yourself frustrated, try this: say out loud three things you love about your animal. Notice how your energy shifts — and you are better able to understand where the behavior is coming from and use your skills to give your animals better ways of coping. It all comes back to learning to act rather than react, the same way we hope to have our animals respond to new or stressful situations.

I am a massive fan of Rachael's work. She has made learning these signals so accessible and detailed - putting words and data to what you may already know and observe without knowing that's whats actually happening as well as honouring the conversation with the horse and the person's learning experience too. I highly recommend signing up if you want to learn to listen more or even better than you currently do.

Listening to you so you can hear your horse

My focus is on helping you strengthen your relationship and confidence with yourself and your horse. A session for you and your horse will be tailored according to the combination of both your needs. We will look at the history, the current situation and also what time, energy and effort you are able to commit to. Sometimes just changing one small thing can make a big difference, so my focus is to try to understand what is important to you and what is the most problematic for you both. Sometimes, it is not the thing we think it is that needs to change.

A facilitated session with your horse enables you to slow time right down and experience the unique space that exists between you both, give you a chance to observe, learn and experience what is contributing to that space. You will discover what exists within the relationship, so getting a chance to see the beautiful as well as clearing out the unhelpful. This can be a transformational space.

I can help you learn some TTouches and exercises that contribute to a deeper level of understanding of how your horse experiences life and for those that are in rehabilitation we can put together a more comprehensive programme. I can offer ongoing telephone and email support to help you in between sessions. I will happily work with your vet, physio, chiropractor and other professionals so please obtain referral/approval from your vet prior to the consultation.
