Episode 24: Techniques for Staying Focused in the Saddle

Turn Fear Around Podcast is filled with simple methods that can be used to overcome fear and anxiety. They are short - 5 to 10 minutes usually, so that you can spend the time practicing and more importantly, DOING. You can always re-listen if you would like!

In this episode, join us as we explore 'Techniques for Staying Focused in the Saddle'. There is only one person that can make decisions for us and our horses. That is US. There are so many trainers, friends, family that think they know better and their input can be valuable, but it still rests on us, to do what is right for us and our horses.

KEY DISCUSSION POINT:

1. Have a conversation with the horse like you would your best friend
2. Play with movement
3. The Police technique of Focus
