I know that some of you will already be brilliant riders in your own field who are just looking for that special something. Some of you will be riders with big dreams on where you want to go with your horse. And some of you just want this amazing togetherness whilst riding and being with your horse.
When I learned a brand new riding seat from Peggy Cummings, for a time I went from a very competent person to feeling incompetent and it was because I threw the baby out with the bathwater. That’s an Australian expression that means I threw away everything that I knew really well, in trying to adopt Peggy’s way of doing things.
And that was not a useful thing to do! That was a SERIOUSLY not useful thing to do!
I would like for you to avoid that as you learn a brand new way of being with your horses. Any time you get confused between the new stuff and what you already know, use one of the Quiet Minds in the next lesson, to figure out what it is that you have to know or do or change, to feel good again.
