Rock Bottom Motivation
My horse is really good... except when I ask him to ______.
I often go out to ride concerned about who will be at the barn or stable...
I can only do ____ with my horse if I first _____ with him.
When I first bought my horse he was great, but now I feel unsure about how he will react to things.
I've been riding for 30 years, shouldn't I know enough by now to stop taking lessons?
My friends' comments when they try to help me at the competition/on the trail/at home schooling just stress me out to the point that riding isn't fun and I'm now avoiding going to the barn.
I feel overwhelmed in where and how to get my horse to respect me.
When I rode as a child I had no fear, now it seems to be a constant in the back of my mind and overshadows enjoyment in time spent with my horse.
I dutifully work my horse, but it seems the more I practice something the worse my horse gets.
When I'm sitting in the saddle I'm exhausted after just a short ride.

Mentally Available and Willing Horses
Starting a Conversation
Starting a session with a mentally willing horse. It isn't about the behavior of the horse following you loose.
It is about the opportunity to assess where your horse is mentally, emotionally and physically on that particular day.
This feedback from the horse helps dictate what needs to be expressed by you in the conversation to offer guidance and leadership that will build the horse's curiosity and confidence rather than diminish it.
No treats, no bribes. Just a simple offer "to be with me."
Would you like to evolve the partnership with your horse? Sign up for Sam's Remote Horse Coach program today!
"I have to..." vs. "I get to..." with our horses
"I have to..." vs. "I get to..."
I recently was listening to a non-horse related lecture and it reminded me of something I "knew" but I wanted to revisit more specifically.
For many people, as they experience unwanted scenarios with their horse, they start fixating on the potential unwanted outcomes. I did a #FifteenForFriday (you can sign up HERE to participate) talk on this a few months back. It is very easy to fall into the pattern of thinking negative thoughts and then acting defensively about the potential experiences that can occur with the horse.

The Quality Conversation with the Young Horse
During a lesson the other night we captured this shot... a young horse learning to be supported by the handler...
Learning the conversation skills that will last a lifetime. Without that key mental factor, the conversation between human and horse becomes limited and patternized.
It isn't about the obvious physical scenario presented, but rather the quality of the conversation.
Without two way conversations the equine experience becomes "hopeful" on the human end and anticipation builds in the horse.
Find out how Sam can help you and your horse negotiate the conversation! Click here for more on her Remote Horse Coaching program.
