You can’t hide from yourself when you work with me.

Your horse sees what you avoid.
They respond to your nervous system, your beliefs, your patterns - not the story you tell yourself.

When you’re ready to look at your shadow side, understand yourself on a deeper level, and elevate into soul-led horsemanship… I’m here 😊

I don’t just work with your horse.
I work with you.

That’s why I created Heal with Hannah - a space where we explore your energy, subconscious beliefs, mindset and what you’re actually trying to achieve beneath the surface.

All I ask is honesty and openness.
Because self-protection, denial and old stories are often the very things blocking the life and the partnership you want.

When you get out of your own way and release what’s no longer serving you, everything changes. That’s when safety, trust and true connection with your horse can finally emerge.

If you’re ready for real partnership - not control, not force - this programme is for you.

I’m extremely passionate about this programme. I created it because I’ve been where you are. I’ve been working on myself for many, many years. I will always have compassion for where you’re at and will help you get to where you want to be.

We do the sessions over video call - it’s a personal and private retreat completely tailored to you - and you don’t even have to leave your own home. I understand busy schedules and some weeks I’ll be doing remote work, like Spirit Sessions with you, so you don’t have to be present, you’ll receive the report straight after.

Who’s tired of repeating old patterns and wants to break free from everything that’s tying you down?

Life is too short and you’re too special to not enjoy it.

Drop me a message if you’re interested 😘

Love Hannah xx

Do you regularly introduce new things to your horse?

Not to overwhelm them, not to test them, but to gently interrupt autopilot.

Consciousness evolves when we step out of unconscious programming. Horses are no different.

When a horse repeats the same patterns, routines, environments and emotional states, their nervous system runs on autopilot. The body remembers. The mind follows. The energy stays the same.

But when we consciously introduce safe, intentional novelty -
✨ A new environment
✨ A different sensory experience
✨ A new way of being with them
- we invite neuroplasticity.

New experiences create new neurological pathways, new pathways create new choices and new choices create healing.

For horses who have experienced trauma, stress, or long-term tension, this is profound. You’re not ‘fixing’ them. You’re offering their nervous system a new reference point.

And here’s the part most people miss…

Your energy is the gateway.

If you introduce something new while regulated, present and grounded, your horse learns:
“I am safe while something unfamiliar happens”

That rewires far more than behaviour. It rewires perception.

This is soul-led horsemanship. Not repetition for control but conscious expansion for healing and trust on the deepest level.

Ask yourself:
🔸 Where is my horse on autopilot?
🔸 Where might gentle novelty create freedom instead of fear?
🔸 Am I regulated enough to guide them through the unknown?

Because every new, safe experience says to your horse’s nervous system:
“There is more available to you”

And that’s where true healing and partnership begins 💫☺️💫

My approach to horses has always been holistic… because horses are holistic beings.

You can’t separate the body from the mind, or the behaviour from the spirit. Everything is connected and everything tells a story.

When I work with a horse, I don’t start with the problem. I start with the spirit. With who they are beneath the tension, the habits, the fear or the shutdown. Because behaviour is only ever the surface of something much deeper.

💫 First, I listen to the emotions they’ve been carrying
💫 I gently unravel the trauma that sits in the nervous system
💫 I help them release the patterns of survival they’ve been holding onto

Only then do I look at the habits, the responses and the behaviour that has formed around their lived experience.

I’m here for the horses who need a softer way and for the humans who know their horse is asking for something deeper 😊

“All clear” doesn’t always mean all ok.

A horse may be given the all clear by a professional, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re ready to be ridden or are truly well.

It simply means they are ok from that particular profession’s perspective.

As we know, our horses are layered, complex beings. They don’t live in compartments.

A horse can be physically sound…
yet mentally overwhelmed.
Emotionally shut down.
Spiritually disconnected.

And when those layers are struggling, the body will eventually speak - even if it’s been given the green light.

This is why true healing must be holistic.

💫 Mind, Body & Spirit 💫

The mind and spirit are so often underestimated - yet they come before the body. If a horse doesn’t feel safe, heard or regulated on those levels, the body cannot fully relax, recover or perform.

When we work with every facet of who they are - their experiences, emotions, environment and energetic state - we support them in a way that is respectful, sustainable and deeply aligned.

This is how we help our horses thrive, not just survive.

If your horse feels “off” despite being told everything is fine, trust that feeling. There is always more information available if we’re willing to listen.

If your horse needs support, a ✨ Spirit Session ✨ can help you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface. Because your horse’s voice matters - even when it’s quiet.

Discipline isn’t punishment - it’s devotion 💫

If you’re struggling to achieve a goal with your horse, it’s worth looking at how you’re rewarding yourself along the way.

Constant cheap dopamine - scrolling, snacking, distracting, jumping from one thing to the next - trains our nervous system to avoid the very tasks that would actually move us forward.

Instead of rewarding avoidance, try this:
👉 Remove the small, instant rewards
👉 Focus on the one task you’ve been putting off
👉 Give yourself a meaningful reward once it’s done

Not a treat for almost starting.
Not a reward for thinking about it.
But for following through.

Horses thrive on consistency.
Their bodies, minds and nervous systems soften when they know what to expect.

So ask yourself honestly:
What’s blocking me from showing up consistently for my horse?

Is it overwhelm?
Fear of getting it wrong?
Lack of confidence?
Or simply a habit of avoiding discomfort?

Discipline creates safety for you and your horse. Consistency builds trust in training, in therapy and in yourself.

You don’t need more motivation. You need fewer distractions and a deeper commitment to what you say matters 💫

If you’d like guidance and support I have both a programme to help you heal and release blocks and an online course you can follow to heal your horse - learning bodywork techniques, energy methods, how to be an energetic leader, meditation and so much more!

A beautiful reminder of how deeply horses feel and heal ✨

This was my 5th session with this mare over the last two years and I’m blown away by how far she’s come.

When I first tuned in, she was holding herself very rigidly, head lifted, body braced. It felt like a horse who had learned to disconnect from herself because she didn’t feel safe to fully feel. Underneath that tension though, there was so much softness waiting to come back online.

Before going any deeper, her system needed clearing. There was heavy energy around her that was keeping her stuck. Once that was gently released, something shifted immediately - her presence dropped back into her body and I could feel how vulnerable she’d felt being disconnected. That alone showed just how much her awareness and sensitivity have grown.

As her sense of safety returned, she began to feel whole again. There was a strong feeling of relief, gratitude and self-trust. She’s learnt how to support and heal herself, and that ability is only getting stronger. Her energy felt incredibly sweet and soft.

One of the most touching parts of the session was her connection with her owner. She feels deeply bonded and protective. The reluctance to be mounted wasn’t resistance - it was care. She was trying to keep her person safe, sensing things didn’t feel right at the time. Horses carry so much love and this mare has a heart full of it.

From a physical perspective, her posture at the start made complete sense. She’d been hollowing her back as a way of avoiding the energy she was surrounded by. There was tension through her neck, two key areas along her spine (T16 and L1) and knock-on tightness through her sacrum. This was also the reason she didn’t want to be mounted. Her nervous system needed a reset after holding so much.

As her body and nervous system recalibrated, her whole system softened. There was a deep release, a sense of integration and a feeling of processing on a very deep level.

This session was such a powerful reminder of how intertwined emotional safety, physical tension, and healing truly are - and how much horses want to feel safe, connected and understood.

I do the spirit session sat in a safe place and when I came back to the stable it was amazing to hear that she had been stretching physically, as well as spiritually.

She lay down for half an hour to process and heal 🥰

Horses need continuous spiritual care throughout their lives. I’m honoured to be part of her journey and health on every level 💫

Are you speaking kindly to yourself as a horse owner?

So many of us have something we deeply want with our horse - more softness, trust, confidence and harmony.

And when it isn’t happening, the first place we often turn is against ourselves.

“I’m not good enough”
“I’m doing it wrong”
“I should be further along by now”

But what if the block isn’t your horse at all?

What if it’s the fear you’re carrying underneath the goal?

🔸 Fear of getting it wrong
🔸 Fear of being judged
🔸 Fear of repeating past mistakes
🔸 Fear of letting yourself hope and then
being disappointed

Our horses feel all of this. Not as failure, but as information.

When we speak harshly to ourselves, we tighten. When we doubt ourselves, our bodies change. When we rush or push because we “should be there by now,” your horse feels the pressure before you do.

Gentle question to sit with today:
What am I afraid might happen if I truly allow this to work?

Kindness towards yourself is not letting standards slip. It’s creating the safety where real change can happen.

Your horse doesn’t need a perfect human.
They need a present, honest and compassionate one 🥰

You will always be met with kindness and compassion, no matter what stage you and your horse are at, or how much you believe in spiritual work ❤️

Dusk is my favourite time of day. That quiet in-between moment where the world exhales.

The work is done, the noise softens and there’s space to reflect on all that’s passed before night wraps everything in stillness.

The horses feel it too. Their energy settles, their presence deepens, as if they’re listening to the land breathe with them.

There’s something sacred about this hour -
a reminder that rest is just as important as movement and that peace often arrives when we stop trying to hold the day.

A moment to reflect on the lessons, the light and the quiet company of horses who comfort you and know how to fully be here 🌙🐎🌙

Trauma before training but truth before excuses…

I’m a huge advocate for releasing trauma before we train. A nervous system in survival cannot truly learn, only cope. You all know I start with the spirit and go from there.

Once the trauma has been released we need to look at the behavioural patterns which are left.

Sometimes, once pain has been cleared, emotions have been witnessed, and the horse feels safe in their body again, the behaviour still remains. This is not failure, it’s information.

A horse can be deeply loved, well cared for, and energetically supported and still need clear boundaries, consistency and education.

Healing opens the door and training teaches what to do once the door is open.

True horsemanship is knowing when to soften and when to step up with calm, fair leadership.

Both can exist and both are necessary.

I love the breakdown and education of this post. It’s not about blame, it’s about information and steps to take to improve the partnership with your horse ❤️

A Spoiled Horse

As a trainer I’ve recognized for years that training a spoiled horse feels like fighting a cancer of the mind. It’s incredibly rewarding once the spoiled mind has been healed. We just hope it’s not re-infected by the original behavior shaper. 🫣

I’ve finally gathered enough information about spoiled horses, it’s time to do a deep dive!! We’re about to talk about: how they are created, how to spot them, and how to fix them! This is about to be one of my favorite writings I’ve ever released. 🙌🏼

Cause
Spoiled is not about kindness, treats, and comfort. Spoiling is:
RELIEF WITHOUT RESPONSIBILITY! 🤯

A spoiled horse is:
▫️ Protected from pressure
▫️ Rescued from discomfort
▫️ Rarely asked to adapt

They don’t learn:
▫️ Emotional regulation
▫️ Cause and effect
▫️ How to try through confusion

What They Look Like
Low resilience + high entitlement + fragile nervous system.

They often look confident or bold, but internally they are:
▫️ Easily overwhelmed
▫️ Easily offended
▫️ Easily shut down or explosive

The mentality they carry:
👶🏼 “I shouldn’t have to.”
👶🏼 “This feels unfair.”
👶🏼 “Someone else will fix this.”

Nervous system response:
▫️ Low tolerance for frustration
▫️ High reactivity to pressure
▫️ Poor recovery after stress

They never learned how to stay mentally present when things got hard.

Typical spoiled horse behaviors:
🐴 Won’t stand tied
🐴 Pushy in personal space
🐴 Explosive over small corrections
🐴 Selectively obedient
🐴 Lazy until suddenly reactive
🐴 Refuses before it tries
🐴 Melts down over small things
🐴 Shuts off instead of working through confusion

Horses do not do these things because they are “bad”, they do them because they never learned how to COPE.

Spoiled horses are anxious and not confident. Reasons being:
▫️ They often overreact
▫️ They don’t trust their own ability
▫️ They rely on others to regulate their world

At times they may appear dominant, lazy, or entitled. But under all that is crippling fear and a huge lack of confidence. This is where their dramatic spooking comes from when their comfort bubble is popped.

How To Fix Them
The three biggest things that WILL
NOT WORK to fix a spoiled horse:
❌ More pressure suddenly
❌ More softness
❌ Inconsistency

What WILL WORK to fix a spoiled horse:
💚 Predictable structure
- We need to offer our horses consistent training with the same rules and clear expectations.
💚 Gradual discomfort
- They need small manageable challenges with no rescuing. They need to feel the frustration and learn to think through it.
💚 Teaching the effort ➡️ relief connection
- Trying = Relief
- Avoiding = Work
💚 Emotional neutrality (from trainer)
- Our part: no anger, no pleading and no guilt. 🙅🏻‍♂️

Calm, boring, consistency is what will rewire your spoiled horse into your ultimate partner. 💪🏼

What you’ll get:
🐴 Calm under pressure
🐴 Confidence with understanding
🐴 Willing and not reactive
🐴 Trust in you as a leader

Good trainers aren’t just training movement. They’re training nervous systems. The more you understand about a spoiled mind the more you can avoid or even fix it. FYI humans experience it much the same way. 😉
