About this episode
If you're like most people, there's a thing or two you'd like to improve. Maybe it's your posture or maybe it's the way your horse uses her back. Whatever you'd like to improve, it's tempting and common to just try to CORRECT the situation. If you're slouching, well, then just straighten up! If your horse's back is tight and dropped, do what it takes to get your horse to lift her back. Simple as that! Or is it? When we correct movement or behavior, we're contradicting what the nervous system is doing. That doesn't promote safety or trust. That means that the change is not only unsustainable, but can create additional problems. In this episode of Easier Movement, Happier Horses, I explain why it's soooo much more effective to CONNECT, rather than correct. You can improve posture, you can improve the way your horse uses her back or any other habit you'd like to change. Give it a listen and try it out! I have FREE resources to get you started CONNECTING and helping your horse improve. Go to https://www.MaryDebono.com/Horse. You'll get access to a hub of videos to teach you basic hands-on "moves" to help improve your horse, as well as Feldenkrais-inspired awareness exercises to improve your comfort, flexibility and balance too.
