Mindset Mastery & The Body Scan

This course contains work that directly relates to the Rider's Mind and the Rider's Body.

Your horse experiences your body.

Riders tend to focus on physical cues: rein, leg, seat, etc.

Your thought, emotions, and perceptions influence your interactions with your horse, because they show up in your body...and your horse is reading your body.
