Have you ever noticed how quickly things can shift from good to tense during a ride? One moment you're feeling relaxed and confident, and the next, you realize that your shoulders have crept up to your ears, your hands are gripping onto those reins for dear life, and, maybe, you've forgotten to breath for a few seconds too long!
Rather than just accepting that your body is doing it's own thing - and not what you want, this is the perfect opportunity to begin asking yourself "What's going on here?". "What thought caused this reaction in my body?"
Because, while you might think that these things just happen; leaning forward on every canter transition, or curling up like a hamster when a dog barks while out for a hack; they are a reaction. Your body is reacting to your thoughts about the situation. Yes, these physical responses aren't random—they’re usually triggered by your thoughts. Thoughts that we often don't even realize we are having!
Today, we're going to explore how to identify these unhelpful thoughts and, importantly, how you can shift them to create positive change in your riding.
