Before I took a closer study of NLP my mind was full of negativity, self loathing and limited thinking.

Then I changed my view and the world opened up and life took on a whole new mean, optimistically and positively.

I began testing some of my life long held beliefs about myself and the world around me and magically the world around me changed.

For the better.

And it all started with a horse.

He was new to me and in a short time I realised I was constantly thinking about the falls id had on another horse. This new boy was picking up on my vibes and reflecting it back at me.

Fortunately I knew a little about nlp and wondered if it could help me with my horse riding nerves. It absolutely changed my confidence and slowly filtered into the rest of my life, improving my confidence in other areas of my life.

If your struggling with your mindset around horses, I specifically trained in NLP for equestrians and understanding the unique way we think about ourselves and our horses.

My appointment book is open when your ready to change the way you see the world around you.

WHO

Willingness
Honesty
Open

Who would you be if you were Willing to be Honest about some of your old beliefs about yourself or your riding and Open to trying a different view?

The Willingness to change starts transformational journeys.

Let's be Honest and Open and see WHO you could become.

Nlp is The amazing tool of transformation and for years i have been using it to transform not only my own life but that of countless others.

Horse riding accidents
Confidence troubles
Anxiety
Relationships
Goals
Fears
Addiction

And many things inbetween

Are there gremlins in the hedge?

Over the past month or so, I've revisited some riding activities I've not done for a while.

Group hacking and solo hacking.

Because my partner has a horse we mostly hack out together, so going alone or in a group simply got forgotten.

Solo hacking has been interesting as Derry is happy to go behind. We have however enjoyed ourselves and it has encouraged me to use mindset tools I haven't used for a while.

First thing I do is check through my body for tension. Im I holding the reins tight? Am I stiff in the saddle? I check in with my whole body and see where I can relax, my neck, shoulders, back, hips and all down my legs and of course not forgetting my hands and arms. Any tension I carry transfers straight to my horse and whilst out on the road, a tense horse is not fun to ride.

Ive been chatting away with him, keeping the conversation light. Mostly I talk about what im seeing. The change in the season and the weather. What I'll make him for his tea and if I've got fresh carrots 🥕

I've found the conversation works both ways. It distracts me from mentally looking for trouble and the chat helps relax my body.

Find this helpful? Why not save and share with a friend. Id be very grateful 🙏

Doing My Part

“The surest way to become Tense, Awkward, and Confused is to develop a mind that tries too hard—one that thinks too much.”

—Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh

The universe will help us, but we need to do our part as well. Here’s an acronym “My Part” to help you remember what it means to do that.

Manifest

Your

Power

Accept

Relax

Trust

Too often, we tell ourselves the only way to get from point A to point B—or Z—is to tense up, obsess a little (or a lot), and live in fear and anxiety until what we want takes place.

That isn’t the path to success. It’s the path to fear and anxiety.

Accept. Relax. Breathe. Let go. Trust yourself, God, and the universe to manifest the best possible destiny when the time is right for you.

God, help me make the journey from fear and control to letting go and stepping into my true power.

Its National Black Cat Day🐈‍⬛ and just ahead of Halloween👻. My cat is up to mischief in the office.

Over the years I've heard some rather scary tails on why the teller can't ride, including not riding on Halloween and when the moon is full, all spooky I must admit.

Casting your mind to your riding horror movies, are there situations when you won't ride, for fear of a remake?

The black cat symbolises transformation and intuition and it is by leaning into our own innate wisdom that we can transform our own lives and riding for the better.

No need for spells or potions, perhaps a little mindset magic will be just the trick.

Now my cat Robyn is keeping the coaching office chair warm ready for you to take a seat and turn your to riding dreams into reality.

No magic wand required..

One of the biggest, most scariest decisions I've ever made was to quit alcohol. FOR GOOD!

I could not have imagined how much it effected my energy, my confidence and my ability to achieve realistic targets.

It screwed up my sleep, my emotions and my thinking.

It took away my capacity to really enjoy life.

Totally scary really when the demon drink is so socially the norm, and no one thinks there's a problem........until that is, you want to stop.

Devil my care. What's your view on alcohol?

Following on from WMH day, Saturday self care.

World mental health day.

We all struggle. Every single one of us. Weather you are high functioning, or isolated, struggling with whatever is happening for you today.

Stop for a moment, take a few deep, slow breaths, notice your surrounds. Step outside if you can to do this.

Allow yourself time.

This morning I too chose to slow down and connect with everything around me and recognise this moment will pass.

Whatever your struggle, it will pass and sometimes you just have to let go, just as the sun rises and the moon disappears, the cycle of life if forever changing.

Super well done to Rachel Dye. Her determination is 👌

Me trying to take pictures of the moon again.

It reminds me of so many thing's.

1. Life is always best witnessed through your own eyes and not from some one else's view.

2. The camera lies.

3. With the right tools you can create better results.

Funny things like this are like improving your mindset.

Last reminder is that with practice you can improve your outcomes.

I love the precepts of reiki and they serve as beautiful reminders for when life is challenging.

Just for today, I will not worry.

Just for today, I will not anger.

Just for today, I will be grateful.

Just for today, I will work honestly.

Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing.

Life will always have its challenges and things can get carried away. Practicing a pause, deep breath and a gentle reminder to slow down.

You can worry another day, if you wish, but just for today or even a hour, let it go.

If you haven't experienced reiki before, I am offering taster sessions of 30 mins.

Please dm if you would like to recharge your mind.

4. Not every thought that enters your mind is the truth.

5. It's okay if the only thing you did today was breathe.

6. Rest is not a reward you earn; it is a requirement for survival.

7. This heavy feeling will pass, just like every storm before it.

8. You are not required to set yourself on fire to keep others warm.

9. Be as kind to yourself as you would be to a friend in your situation.
