I love this and this young lady! So very true

You are either feeding your problems or fixing them.

Everyday we have an opportunity to show up and build good habits. It’s all too easy to slip into letting our horses get away with stuff because “I’ll fix that later”. Horses are pattern animals. What you do repeatedly builds. If you aren’t sure if a habit is hurting you, ask yourself this…

- How will this effect my horsemanship in 5 years?
- Would I allow my horse’s behavior if a child was working with him?

This puts things into perspective. We are only as good as our habits. It’s worth the effort to build something you are proud of.

This is anxiety and fear. Put it in it's place

Enough Knowledge and positive experience creates confidence. It usually takes the path of a learning curve and requires a said amount of courage. Wisdom is on the other side of action. Action overcomes fear but it needs to be an action just a smidge on the other side of your comfort zone.
I would love to help you walk to the edge with confidence.

This is a great statement but there's a lot to goes in between. How can I help you fill the gaps?

Fear:
it's a mile high and a mile wide but it's paper thin.
I would love to help you break through to Freedom From Fear 365 🤗

Happy New Year!
As you navigate through winter longing for warmer days to play with your pony partner, take some time to connect, reconnect and build that bond with your equine.

When trying to build confidence use simulations through learning curves. It frees your mind of pressure. My hubby was wanting to improve his rein handling and proves to be a wonderful student.

Morning Mantra: "Hang out with people, in places, that fit your future, not your history."
It takes so much courage to remove yourself from relationships, situations, jobs and places that no longer align with your goals and your energy.
You are so brave to do that.
Don't ever feel guilty for choosing yourself and your peace. You should be celebrating that you are finally putting yourself first.
That you finally decided to take care of yourself as much as you do others.
It's your time to shine.

everyday is a step in the process of becoming a better me if I make the better choices. What do you want your life to look like? What choice can you make today to start that process? peace and hugs

Do the best you can and keep in mind your best won't look the same everyday. Love and hugs.

Trail riding was not possible a few years ago. I had too much fear and anxiety, drowning myself with a case of the "what if's"
Now I focus on "what is" and enjoy my sweet boy and beautiful girl exploring nature. when the season is right you can find blackberries and mulberries to eat along the trail. ☺️

I want to share with you the importance of building a relationship with your horse. I have had Jewel for one week and I have been working hard to establish respect and rapport with her. It paid off because at 6 am in the rain while opening the gate to her pasture something scared her and she pulled the rope out of my hand. It's pitch black, raining and I thought my new mare was going to run across the county. I called calmly to her and she turned around and came back. Whether she came back to the gate, I don't care. I had already built enough trust with her so she chose not to run from me. Don't ever under estimate the importance of spending undemanding time with your horse. 🥰 my girl

This goes for young men just as well.

Boy, that's right!

Thank you thank you
although I did not get a before picture, here is this mornings look at his eye. He has had one large dose of total immune health and one large dose of Uveitis and the difference is remarkable along with your all's prayers.
Yesterday he couldn't open his eye. It was swollen sore and a lot of drainage So Thank you all for your prayers and love

Please keep my sweet Riley boy in your prayers. My fire breathing dragon who taught me how to overcome fear got a small rose thorn poke in his eye. He is being treated and will be monitored closely over the coming days/weeks. My prayer is that he heals quickly with the regimen we are on without any repercussions. Thank you
I will update tomorrow

Meet Jewel, she truly is a gem. I love to help people overcome fear with their horses but if you want to become a better rider and gain confidence, Jewel is that girl. I am absolutely in love with this mare and we are working on repore, and connection. In just 2 days she has responded nicely to anything I ask. She is a treasure for sure. Thanks to Graceful Equines for this wonderful pairing. I highly recommend Lauren McCain if you're looking for your next equine partner.
