Synergy and Freedom

I haven’t met a rider yet who hasn’t experienced some sort of block at some point.

For some this is a confidence issue, for some this is a memory that crops up at annoying times – of a fall, of what someone said, of an embarrassing moment in the third grade… you get the idea! - For some it is a disconnect from their body, and for others the block seems to be in the horse itself.

Speaking from personal experience, I’ve had all of the above at various points 😂

It’s why I love EFT. Because I don’t even have to know what the block is for EFT to be able to clear it.

This is why I trained in EFT, because I personally had such great experiences with it… but better than that, I know people like Christine Martin who specialise in it… and I’m even MORE lucky because this coming Monday I get to share her with you guys (if you want!).

The session is going to be super experiential so you can literally work through a block right then and there on the call… and as usual I will record it so if you are in the HHM, you can go back to it in the future!

You can find all the details in the event page or from me directly 🥰

It’s a tough gig being Junior.

Those morning naps that are so relaxing for him… are less relaxing for those who are tasked with looking after him 😂

Part Two!

Here is a very brief insight into WHAT we are looking for when we watch your horse walk away and towards us.

There is obviously a lot more than this, but these features are usually visible to the “untrained” eye and so easier for you to assess yourself.

This can tell us if there is restriction and where (ie rotation through the trunk potentially as a result of restriction through the abdominal obliques) and also give us an overall picture of the whole chain, and where the cause lies as opposed to chasing symptoms.

This assessment will often show up “sub clinical” lameness - that is to say, unevenness in gait that does not yet register as even a 0.5/5 in a trot up lameness exam. It also gives us more information than just limb movement.

If you have any questions, let me know!

Sometimes you just need your head held up on something soft when your lat dorsi is being unwound ❤️ 💤

Why your bodyworker/chiro/physio/whatever should be watching your horse walk before treating them.

And honestly… why I’m wary of those who don’t. Although I’ll add a slight caveat to this, if I know your horse well and see them often, I might do a sneaky and watch them walk as you lead them out of the paddock etc and not make you do it again 🤫

NSW trip!

Hey guys, I’m thinking of doing a bit of a whirlwind work trip to NSW, probably around Easter. One day in the hills, one in Hawkesbury, or something along those lines. With Hunter Valley/central coast on the way down/up.

If that’s something you’d be interested in, text me 0421313863 and I’ll do some more serious organising 🥰

The time I took my horse to choose a pet pony for his very own 🙈😍 🐴

Today’s attempt to escape the mortal plane was a new one, I’ll admit.

And boy howdy did it make an interesting noise that immediately piqued my interest! Whatever noise you think that would make as your horse attempts to remove half swallowed electric tape from his mouth… you’re wrong!

I can safely say in all my years of having horses, I have never heard quite that noise before!

So, what has your horse done recently that makes you question how evolution has allowed their species to continue to the present day?!

I had the absolute honour of facilitating a constellation session yesterday, with Cadiz choosing to be a (dramatic) part of it.

I love the way horses so effortlessly come into and transform these sorts of sessions. This profound moment was actually a good 10 minutes at the conclusion of the session, reinforcing and cementing the shifts.

For those who aren’t familiar with family and systemic constellations, it is a beautiful modality that is very powerful for revealing and shifting the cause of repeating patterns. It works with the hidden dynamics that exist within systems; family systems, organisational systems, body systems, and moves them towards greater alignment.

For me, this has looked like letting go of long held patterns of anxiety, self-sabotage, health issues and more.

It’s so incredible to be a practitioner of this modality after 10 years of working with it, so that I can offer these sessions now ❤️

This was something I heard from the very first time I saw an osteopath treat a horse.

It looked like a total magic trick – he seemingly barely touched this horse and the whole horse just softened. The head dropped, the eyes half closed, and this horse took the deepest breath.

That was the day when I said “I want to learn that!”.

20 years later, it still seems like a magic trick every time I feel and see a horse melt. From the slowest, lightest touch. No force or pressure, just a deep understanding of where and how the body needs the input for the greatest positive impact. How you can introduce a single, subtle stimulus and have an affect throughout the whole body.

These days I see more than just the relaxation, I can see the fascia unwinding, the old patterns dropping away, the body finding a new position of ease, and the nervous system finding a new level of regulation.

I am so very grateful that this is the path I have chosen, and that I’m blessed to work with these beautiful creatures 🥰
