Patience & Confidence
This meditation has helped me to patiently “reset” when something goes wrong, to relax and ask my horse again for what I want, calmly and patiently, with clear expectation. And that leads to an increase in confidence. I also find that at any point in my ride, as soon as I hear “That’s right ” in my head, my whole body relaxes and my mare immediately responds. There are some days when I relax deeply into the meditation and others when my mind darts in and out, but the cumulative effect of doing it regularly has been really helpful to my mental and physical state while riding.
