Pony hopping was on today’s list. This one is going to be so much fun for someone looking for an all around fun horse.

Modern day life is busy. It is chaotic and noisy. We are flooded with messages, thoughts, ideas, catastrophic events, and horrible things people do to each other. We are desensitized and taught, purposely or not, to shut down, fake emotions, pretend to be something we aren’t and fit in. But make sure you stand out too. But only in a way deemed acceptable. Then we walk out to our horses.

We walk out to the barn after bracing and blocking ourselves to every day life and carry it there. We make our horses our “therapists” dumping negative energy on them and then block out the communication they try to give us that they aren’t happy. They don’t feel safe or understood. We selfishly demand they be perfect for us requiring from them something they can’t give us. Peace, joy, confidence, self love and acceptance.

Your horse is not a life coach. The barn can only be a place of peace if you deal with your 💩 elsewhere and bring peace and calmness to the barn. The horse can only bring joy when you stop fighting and learn how to listen to what your horse needs to feel safe, comfortable and understood. If things aren’t going well, slow down listen to what your horse is telling you. They reflect back our mental and emotional state and how well we are communicating and listening to them.

If you need coaching to help you move through life’s problems so you can show up to the barn in a good state to work with your horse, that’s exactly what I realized my program was lacking. I dove into the training this year, and now have added human coaching as a service in my programs. Whether you have a horse or not or are working with me with your horse or not, if you’re hitting a rough patch and need help moving forward, reach out and see if it might be a good fit.

That’s my baby! 😍 As I start riding him my entire goal will be to stay out of his way and keep that natural beautiful movement.

It has been a week here. The last 9 days have held the utter chaos that happens when everything about running a horse business decides to drop daily bombs as you scramble to keep up with the chaos and normal activities. This morning I’m fixing fence that literally got blown apart by lightning. Fortunately only cleaning up posts and fence, no soft targets. 🙈 Enjoy a pic from a normal trail moment that got interrupted and cut short by yesterday’s chaos.

Three blonds and a bay roan walk into a barn… all four are looking for new partners. Who’s the first to walk out with a new match? The gelding (top left) or one of the three mares?

Stay tuned for upcoming individual profiles.

No seriously… they’re all looking for their next person to go home with.
