How do Improve your Horsemanship with Limited Time: Equine Learning

 

Valuable Time
Whether limited due to work, school, other commitments, weather, etc. I encourage people to spend any and as much Quality Time they can with the horse.

Every interaction with the horse is an Opportunity for:
*Interaction
*Observation
*Feedback
Can you learn without doing an hour ride? Yes

Can you refine your communication without mindlessly repeating it for 40-minutes? Yes

Can you practice observing and recognizing patterns within either yourself or the horse? Yes

Can you have "success" even if you divert from your original intention based on the horse's current mental and emotional state? Yes

Learning to let go of mental distractions, past experiences, and self-imposed urgencies allows humans to increase their awareness, believe the horse's subtle communication, and refine their skill-sets affecting their Horsemanship.

When you're short on time with the horse, what have you noticed in your own habits, patterns, or thoughts?
 
Any reoccurring themes?
 
How might this influence the Conversation with the horse?
