Did you know that cribbing isn't always connected to physical discomfort like ulcers or wrong feed? It can also affect your throat, lungs and more.

Ashwagandha🌿 
"The King of Ayurverdic Herbs"

Picture

15 July 2019

This powerful plant contains anti-oxidants and helps to relieve/release anxiety, stress, sleeping problems, etc. Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb, but what exactly does that mean? 🤔

Not really a blog, but written in the moment.

Fear in the Mind, 
creates stress in the Body

Picture

30  May 2019

Before I agree to visit a potential new client, I always ask if the horse has been checked for physical discomfort or blockages.
​Something that should be easily checked with the help of a vet, a farrier, chiropractor, etc. 

 Freestyle Riding #5
Inspirational

9 May 2019

It's been two months since I started my Freestyle Riding journey with JP. I can't believe how far we've come!

In this final Freestyle blog I will share some inspirational words with you
💙

Freestyle Riding Part #4
Confidence building

Picture

11 April 2019

Our second ride in the arena came with a surprise: sharing the arena, with another duo!

Freestyle Riding  #3
1st time in the Arena + Confidence building

Picture

April 2019 

Our first ride in the arena! I told myself  'Only walking and trotting today, we'll save the canter for next time'.

But, when the opportunity presents itself, why not go for it?

​


Freestyle Riding   #2
Follow the horse, not the method

Picture

March  2019

There are so many ways out there to teach your horse just about anything. Especially these days with YouTube, Facebook and what not, information seems to be in our grasp every time and every where.

But how do you know if you're making the right decision, when you decide to go and learn something new?
Listening to and looking at your horse with an honest, and open mind are some tips to get you started.


Follow my journey with rescue mare JP, to a bridleless future!

Can horses fool us? 

Picture

18 April 2019

Last week I was asked to work with a big gelding, who'd showed some 'dominant' behavior during one of the Volunteer Days at the rescue. But as it turns out, he is not a dominant horse. 

Freestyle Riding   #1
Hów exactly do you start?

Picture

March 2019

When I was younger, there was only one dream for me: To be able to be 'One' with the use, physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. Cantering through the woods without any tack... Some people might say it's a crazy dream to chase, but I just had to pursue my passion! My curiosity lead me towards developing my own concept of 'Freedom", for me and for the horse.

How smiling improves your training! + inspirational video

Picture

March 2019

Smiling actually tricks your brain into feeling happy, which leads to a release of dopamine and seratonin, both easily picked up by a horse.
“Dopamine increases our feelings of happiness. Serotonin release is associated with reduced stress.”


Natural Horsemanship & Integrated Energy Therapy

Picture

April 2019

By Energizing and Integrating the horse's cellular memories, we are able to imprint and restore the right energy that allows the horse to remain strong and true.
​

​To me, an essential part of working with horses.

The Primal relationship between Horse and Human

Picture

March 2019

Horses and humans have a natural-established prey/predator relationship. Understanding this deep rooted relationship will give you an insight into how important body language and energy actually is.

How To politely  introduce yourself,  to a horse

Picture

January 2019

When I teach a lesson, we don't start with riding. We start by establishing the role of 'Alfa', something that can be done through groundwork. You don't see wild horses riding each other's backs to see who's "boss", right? It all starts from the ground, with the right use of body language and energy.

How To determine  the comfort-zone of your horse

Picture

July 2018

Every horse is different, there's highly sensitive horses and always-and-everywhere-bomproof horses. But how do you determine what level your horse is at, what does he know and what totally creeps him out?
