Horse Harmony - Laura Collins

⚠️ Anyone who works with your horse should be qualified and insured 📜. I have only ever been asked to show my insurance once!

To make it easier for you, I have created an 'album'📸 here with them all in for reference, which I will endeavour to keep upto date 😊!

Always lovely to meet new people & ponies!
Its so important to me to meet horses where they are, especially on a first session.
🧠 Horses have been proved to have incredible memories, able to still recognise people after gaps of 20yrs 😳! Therfore I always want to leave them better, both mentally and physically, than when I first met them. If that means working lighter, shorter, taking breaks or even stopping altogether, that is what I will do. I need them to trust that i am genuinely listening to them and trying to make them more comfortable. Their needs will always come before owner expectations.
It makes me so happy to see more and more people getting on board with this ethos 🤗🙌🩵

👏🏆 Thank you!🏆👏
For doing your best to have your horses clean and dry for their massages!

I appreciate this isn't always possible in this weather especially for those with feathers or who live out 😬, but I just wanted to let you know your efforts are noted and appreciated😇!

(Tilly this week v summer!! 😱🫣🤣)

Hello!
Sorry I've been quite on here for a while.

I'm still here, still working hard, just not posting quite so often - taking photos and videos at this time of year is always more challenging - its dark, wet, cold ...!

Behind the scenes, I have also been busy continuing my training and studying which takes time, and energy too, but improving and keeping up to date with current philosophy and science for the benefit of horses is something I hope you feel is often a better use of my time than creating daily posts 🤔.

⚖️ I've also been trying to bring a bit more balance back into my life:

📺Jan = no TV month for us which is alway so liberating, I dont know why we don't do it more often !

📱limiting my social media time - reading / learning instead.

🏃‍♀️ getting back into exercise activites ...

If you would like to book in, I have some evenings available and a few weekend slots in Feb depending on where you are!

Happy Horsing 🐎

What a way to spend Christmas Eve!!
Lots of fun helping Santa navigate his way over roof tops, under northern lights, negotiating narrow alleys to finally deliver the presents under the tree!

Well done everyone! Huge improvements and great communication all round 👏

Happy Christmas 🎄 💓

Longest drive on the shortest day!
Only took one photo though, 🫣 of the gorgeous pearl, who had her first ever massage . and loved every minute of it! Her daughter had a few ouchie bits but is hopefully feeling much happier today along with her stable mate Goldie, who tried so hard to politely tell me "that bit's sore!" 🩵

They don't need voices to talk to those willing to listen 🤍

There is a lot of interesting research going on currently regarding horse communication - including blinking.

This is something I always used to help me interpret a horse's feelings towards me, my treatments and coaching sessions. It is a simple and easily observable way to check in with your 4-legged friend whether you are clipping, negotiating a new obstacle or chilling in the stable!

I will try to add some links for those who like the sciency bits!
