The dummy spit Anti-Struggling Revolution

At the head of this dummy spit revolution is a free monthly seminar on a wide variety of topics themed around happiness, healing and horses. The work we do here can’t be learned like knowledge, it can only be experienced – you’ll find that even the free seminars are experiential.

Over a decade ago, I did a big dummy spit – actually pulled the imaginary baby’s dummy (pacifier to you Americans) out of my mouth, threw it on the ground and stamped on it, grinding it under my foot and dancing on it in temper. Anyone watching me would have had me locked up. I was sooo over struggling. I was sooo over doing things the hard way. I was sooo over feeling crappy far too often.

The work we do here and the lovely community built around it, the free events with the opportunity to work with me live, the clinics, the training programs, all of it started with that desire for no more struggle and the ahhaaa moment when I realized this work isn’t just about horses – there’s an enormous and beneficial ripple effect of inner peace and happiness into all parts of our lives and the world around us.

October’s live event is about the Third Way – a way of resolving conflict without the need for compromise – with horses, in personal relationships and in a change our world kind of way.

7am Sunday 22nd October Summer Time in Melbourne. Saturday in the USA, Canada, UK and Europe.

Click here to check that time for you, recordings are always available for a week.

8’ish years ago, in a horse clinic, we stumbled on (or were led to) a truth so big and far reaching that it has the capacity to change the world around us. In this live event we’re going to expand our horse experience of the inner peace and power of the Third Way into our life experiences of conflict and then out to influence the world around us. And we’re gonna have fun doing it!

Pain leading to healing

How the heck do we stop resisting something that hurts so much? And how does that help us get rid of it?

We started by understanding it… And knowing that it’s possible to solve even the deep and meaningful and painful stuff, with lightness of spirit in this revolutionary seminar.

Eliminating Anxiety

Anxiety would have to be the scourge of modern times and the amount of horse people who experience anxiety is eye watering and for good reason. Understanding WHY we experience fear, is the first step to eliminating it. Inner peace no matter what is going on around us is utterly achievable and just like the drop of water in this picture, there’s a beautiful ripple effect of US eliminating OUR anxiety into our families and the world around us.

The foundation of healing for horses

Gosh this seminar was huge in its information and its results. Applying this foundation to ANYthing that ails your horse will give you and them the best chance for success. You can apply this foundation to everything from arthritis, to Cushings, EMS, lameness, recurring colic, back injuries and any other health problem you can think about. This seminar is about the FOUNDATION to successful healing – people’s results knocked our socks off.

A really good riding seat and clear up back pain

I take you through a posture session for a really good riding seat using my super advanced sports psychology meets leading edge physical therapy, meets healing, to get the extraordinary results that are routine in this work. This way of working gives us a magnetic sucked into the saddle feeling, enables our horse to move more freely for better performance and enables us to heal our horse’s back instead of hurt them.

While we were at it, we cleared up some chronic back pain and gave those who have to sit for long periods, an easy posture to do that sitting in a physically healthy way.

How self sabotage happens and what to do about it – easily

In this seminar I interviewed two students who had made huge breakthroughs in feeling good in and out of horses, in a lesson on how self sabotage happens and what to do about it – easily.

Understanding our desires and our goals and eliminating the depression that is so often associated with them.

The subject was about understanding the link between our goals and what we want in life and the gradual erosion of joy that can happens when we don’t understand how to bring those wants and desires and goals to fruition. We also talked about how to eliminate depression and replace it with lightness of spirit and enjoyment of life. The idea of working with people live is so that everyone can see how easy it can be to change depression when it’s approached w’holistically and that everyone listening can benefit from experiencing that process of change.

“How ordinary people too can create miracles”.

In this seminar I interviewed Narel and Ian Wilson about a real live example of ordinary people creating miracles AND we talked about how ordinary people like all of us can do the same. We talked about all the threads that pulled together to keep her husband and son, their horses and their farm, all safe during many hours raining fire during the apocalyptic fires of 2019/2020.

We watched two videos of what happened – I’ll leave them here – while you’re watching them, think… not one single horse in a whole herd of horses – not one single horse with one single burn on them. We talked about how ordinary people like you and me can create that kind of opportunity.

Click here to watch the footage of firefighters one block from Narel’s house.

And click here for video of the firefighters dash cam literally outside their farm. That’s their boundary fence in the video. The speed of the fire in that real time video is staggering. It rained fire for most of the night and not one horse had one burn on them.

And mannn… your horses are going to LOVE this one!

The secret to extraordinary healing.

You didn’t need a horse for this seminar and you’re welcome to share this around with friends and loved ones who want to learn more, are open to something different and / or are unwell and would like to experience healing as they listen to the recording.

Feel good Problem Solving Seminar

Just imagine it. Feeling peaceful, excited, happy, curious as to the outcome – even joyful – WHILE you’re solving WHATever kind of problem that you have.

Making a homeopathic medicine for your animals.

Continued on from the homeopathy workshop – teaching you how to use a pendulum to work out the succussions and dosages so that you can apply a similar homeopathic medicine to your horses or other animals.

You didn’t need to be a horse person for this session, so feel free to encourage your friends who might be interested, to register for the lessons, videos and recording of this important seminar for those who are looking for simple tools to look after their animals themselves.

There’s a buy now button at the bottom of the page, for $30. On the Paypal form you’ll see a space to let me know which seminar that you want and I’ll send you the link. or email me on the contact page.

Creating a homeopathic medicine for yourself to release the side effects of vaccinations and old chemical toxic residues.

We step by step created the homeopathic from your own saliva, learned how fear and limiting beliefs create blockages to our body’s ability to heal, took the medicine and did a Quiet Mind to release fears and limiting beliefs around vaccinations and chemicals.

The extraordinary healing that can happen when we help our horse to be happy holding their feet for the trimmer or farrier

This seminar was MUCH further reaching than people expected – with step by step techniques for releasing old stress and tension from real life examples AND for getting happy holding their feet up.

The healing opportunities in Burn-out

It was rescheduled from October because of storms and power outages. We had an awesome seminar where a nurse found the real source of of the tiredness that had been “bringing her to her knees” and it wasn’t the overwork of the health system these days. We also did a (repeatable) meditation for everyone to drop at least one of the threads that were contributing to their own tiredness or burnout. Yes this will help your horsemanship too, because all kinds of overwhelm gets in the way of the all important Feel for your horse.

“Dramatically reduce your risk of falling off a horse”

In this seminar we reduced and eliminated the stress and tension from old falls and accidents – tension that can “ping” you out of the saddle when something goes wrong and if left unaddressed, increases the risk of falls.

It doesn’t have to be a bad fall like in the picture either, to leave the tension of a fright imprint.

On the Paypal form you’ll see a space to put in which seminar it is that you’d like me to send you.

Other upcoming topics:

It is impossible to separate being good with horses from peace of mind and healing – and here we do both, for the benefit of our horses, ourselves and the world around us.

The Grief Gateway to Life Loving and Healing – focused on finding the inner peace around the loss of a beloved animal. All these big emotions when they’re stuck, not only feel seriously crappy, they create blockages to your body healing the way it was designed AND get in the way of your best Feel for your horse. This will be a seminar on understanding and processing the death of a beloved horse or other animal or the loss of one in difficult circumstances.
Understanding and fine tuning your Feel for horses and others – We’ll do a seminar specifically on helping people to consciously improve their Feel for their horse, but you’ll also gain improvements in Feel in just about every other topic here, because really good Feel for your horse is an integral part of living a wonderful life – there’s that “anti-struggling revolution” again!
Animal communication – how to use your Feel for your horse as a two way method of communication.
How to solve overwhelm and “over-sensitivity” – how incredibly special sensitivity is and what you can bring to your horse specifically and the world generally, when when you learn how to use it for the gift that it is.
Separation anxiety in horses is so debilitating mentally, emotionally AND physically and affects everything else that you do with them. It’s like I’ve been saying on other subjects – the tension in their bodies from that emotional stress doesn’t suddenly disappear when you put your foot in the stirrup, it’s ready to bite you on the butt when the pressure’s on.
I’m going to scatter all sorts of super brilliant riding seat work among the topics, using my trade mark fast progress to a brilliant riding seat – cleaning up resistances and blockages in your mind body spirit that enable you to re-set your brain for a good riding seat – effortlessly. Every one of those classes will increase your ability to Feel for your horse at the same time. Mannn… you are in for a treat!
Good hands don’t come from the way you use your hands, they come from your riding seat – this seminar will use our healing approach with the aim of expanding that effortlessly good riding seat. Spongey feel in your hands that don’t pull even if the horse pulls on you is the goal here.
The circuit of energy between horse and rider that all the really good riders experience – what’s involved in experiencing the utter joyfulness of that and how do you get it?
All kinds of healing topics starting from understanding the foundation of healing. You’ll find each of these seminars will increase your body’s ability to heal the way it was designed to and will increase your ability to facilitate healing for others.
Solving arthritis in horses – what it takes and make a start in this seminar.
Solving arthritis in humans – what it takes for that to happen plus make a start in this seminar.
Colic first aid for horses
Experience a reiki healing session first hand.
Dealing with your own trauma
Supporting other’s trauma in your and their best way.
What’s involved in helping a traumatized horse or other animal.
When the grief of losing a beloved person is stuck – this will be another Grief Gateway to life loving and healing, but focused on the loss of people.
The richness of life that can be found in and after depression. I can hear some of you saying “Really?” Yes REALLY. Understanding and learning how to use your connection with your horse is a much easier pathway out of depression than for those who don’t have a deep love for animals. It’s a bit personal to ask people to write in the comment section at the bottom of the page about their success with this way of working with depression, but if it feels good to share that there is joyfulness in finding your way through depression – go for it!
Manifesting positive change – with our horses and in our lives.
Gaslighting – have you been got? Finding confidence in your own realness.
How horses can teach us discernment in these interesting times – i.e. what’s really going on and does it matter?
Power without force. Mannn horses are simply the best teachers for this, which is probably why so many of us women are so drawn to them.
A horse “on the bit” can be / should be / I want it to be … a spiritual experience – bitted or bitless – whatever you use on their head, you can still get the physical / spiritual connection of real togetherness with your horse.
