New Year, New Horse Goals, New Intentions

 New Year, New Horse Goals, and New Intentions



Human Intentions influence everything - creating either a positive or negative outcome with the horse.

Alternative Horsemanship the Remote Horse Coach Quote


I meet many horses that are living in a constant state of anticipation and physical tension.
Often the human is distracted by the horse's unwanted behaviors- without acknowledging the root source(s) often stemming from the animal's mental and emotional state.
Without starting in a mentally clear, present, and available place, many horse enthusiasts unintentionally "dump" their
life's chaos and stress upon the horse, and it becomes their filter of how they perceive the equine's behavior.
So much lack, delay, and miscommunication occur if the human's emotional rollercoaster is delegating their interaction with the equine.

Intention and Horses- Improving the Equine Partnership

It is very easy to come up with all the reasons why you can't or to avoid and delay addressing things with the horse.


Much of what we initially consider as being "horse issues" typically are an accumulation of smaller undesired moments, reflecting our level (and lack of) awareness, mental presence, and intention.

Human Intention and Horse Behavior by Alternative Horsemanship

The Human Intention
Until humans figure out what we are bringing to the equine partnership, we cannot offer the horse clear, intentional, specific, and segmented communication they so often need.
I just finished teaching an Alternative Horsemanship six-day clinic and there was a student who was retelling his morning interaction with the horse. Things had not gone as he expected, and he was negatively referring to the horse's behavior in human emotional terms.

Horse Rider Mindset- the Journey of Improving to become better Partners

The Commitment to Change

Every year I receive hundreds of emails and phone calls from people worldwide who are at various stages in their horsemanship journey.
There is a very clear separation between those who are seeking to learn how to work with the horse versus those who are wanting to achieve fast results.
For those who choose the less popular path of raising their self -awareness, and allowing both themselves and the horse time as the relationship evolves, it can feel very isolating.
Learning to let go of distractions and be mentally available to recognize, and address the horse and what he is experiencing, can present a very steep learning curve without a support system for the human.
At times, because this less common approach is not frequently taught, the journey can feel as if one has alienated themselves from the mainstream horse world.
I want to throw open the door for fun dialogue to offer those who perhaps are experiencing, or are questioning "the system" to help equine enthusiasts realize they are not alone.
There are many individuals around the world, every day, who are prioritizing quality with the horse, and all of the struggles, emotions, questions along the sometimes unclear journey are shared by others.
Having read some of Juliette's writings of her decade-plus journey on a path moving away from her initial traditional horse education, I think she's expressed really well what many others may be feeling.
I thought it would be a great opportunity for folks to hear about her experiences and realize change is possible.

Assessing Human Pressure towards the Horse- by the Remote Horse Coach



People tend to hurry in life and often the same applies to their horsemanship.

Horse Behavior- Reviewing the Release by The Remote Horse Coach

Reviewing The Release

As with everything, there are many interpretations when it comes to the terminology associated with horses. I try to be clear and precise in the words that I'm offering, but there still can be a gray area in the human student's understanding. This often comes from their level of awareness, background, and unintentional anticipation/expectation of their mind "getting ahead" of wherever they are currently at with their horse.

Dear Sam: Horse Help Horsemanship Series *Empathy vs. Assumptions Video


Alternative Horsemanship with Samantha Harvey presents Dear Sam: Horse Help Horsemanship Series 

*Empathy vs. Assumptions 

In this video, Sam discusses how many people are starting in a place of assumption with their horses. This causes humans to not recognize the potential cracks or holes in their equine's educational "foundation." This fundamental misunderstanding leads to a majority of the unwanted scenarios experienced with the horse because the handler or rider is assuming and misinterpreting many equine behaviors.
