Horse Training From a Relaxed State Mentally and Physically
After recently watching the Olympics and watching top Athletes from around the world perform, it got me thinking about what makes a top athlete?
Obviously,they are physically superior and train accordingly. However, the other component which is probably the most important is the Mental training many athletes use, such as visualization and meditation techniques to get in the right “head space” so to speak. It helps them relax, to help them perform at their best. Even top Dressage rider, Jessica Von Bredow-Werndl from Germany, who won Individual Gold this year, was quoted after her performance, “I can trust Dalera, I can trust us and it’s about letting go. This was a mental game change from yesterday to today.”
So when we “train” horses , are we really allowing our horses the same courtesy? Oftentimes, we focus so much on the Physical part and forget about the Mental part. Ray Hunt always said, “You have to get the Mind down to the feet.” With Cosmic Comfort Eq products, we are allowing our horses to take the most important step before training, which is to help them Relax and Regulate their Nervous System, and ease Physical Tension, before a training session.
It is not going to be as successful if we try to “train” our horse in a stressed or uncomfortable state, which can include Pain or Emotional Stress.
So why not give your horse the best chance possible before training them? Help them to Relax, bring their Stress Levels Down ,and Ease Physical Tension, before you start training them, with Cosmic Comfort Eq products. We offer an All- Purpose Patch that can be placed directly on their body, usually the back, while grooming, before you ride, or a Cosmic Comfort Eq Blanket, for full body coverage.
Then, during Riding, we use a Bridle Cover and All-Purpose Patch to keep Focus, Relaxation, and Ease Tension.
