Episode 188: Moving faster or slower than your horse; physically and mentally

Are you willing to be out of sync with your horse to make progress? In this podcast, I talk about the idea of moving faster or slower than your horse as a concept that exists both physically, and mentally.  When physically riding a horse, it makes sense that you could be  ’ahead’ of the horse's motion, ‘with’ the horse's motion, or ‘behind’ the horse's motion.  When riders learn how to ride, they are taught to move with the horse at all times. What if the next level of learning happens when you aim for another position? I also share how this ‘ahead’, ‘with’, ‘behind’ can also show up mentally when working with your horse. A listener shares a success story that illustrates how getting ‘ahead’ can bring a horse into a state of being ‘with’…and it feels truly amazing.
