💜💜💜

"Always be humble, always be understanding and always be kind. The brightest smiles can hide a thousand wounds and people can be fighting inner battles you know absolutely nothing about." - Victoria Wright, Founder and Chair of Riders Minds.

On saturday 9th August we’re asking all equestrians to come together from all walks of life and Ask Care. Talk (A.C.T.) on that day.
Start a conversation on a yard, smile at someone you wouldn’t normally talk to, wear something purple, and for once let us all be united by the same passion. We all have the power to be that leg up that somebody might desperately need.

This is so important and relatable ⬇️⬇️

This is something I find many riders (myself included) struggle with and it’s completely natural!

Most of us are taught from the start to steer with the reins. It becomes instinct to pull right, go right. But horses are incredibly attuned to our body. They feel a subtle shift in our seat, the tension in our legs, even the energy behind our breath.

And yet, when something goes wrong, our first reaction is often to grab at the reins. More pressure. More pulling. More confusion…

But reins should be a whisper, not a command. A final piece of communication, not the first.

When we start riding from our seat, core, and intention, things begin to change. Transitions become smoother. Bends feel natural. The horse begins to listen rather than just react.

💡 Next time you ride, ask yourself:

— Can I prepare this movement with my seat and posture before even using my reins?
— Are my hips following and guiding, or am I trying to steer from the front?

Your horse is listening not just to your hands, but to your whole body 💃🏼

👍We’d like to say a HUGE “Thank You” to every single person who was kind enough to donate to our campaign.
🩷As you can see, we have now been able to buy a second for Skye and she is very happy with it.
🩷We are lucky enough to have the great .polo not too far from us who stock this brilliant product (apparently they are quite well used in the world of )
🩷The girls’ uveitis is a long term condition that won’t go away and so having these and their super duper UV fly masks from are really essential pieces of their wardrobe now.
