Is this you?
How much time and money have you already spend to resolve your fear, anxiety and/ or self doubts
when riding or managing your horse in a conscious way? Getting lessons on calm horses, practising exercises, forcing yourself to just push through, telling yourself for months or years that little steps are okay, blaming yourself for letting your horse down etc etc. The list is long. Do you feel stuck in this frustrating, sad, helpless state?Are you still experiencing fear, anxiety, self criticism, but tried everything?
​Do you feel your horse is more stressed or anxious too?
​Do you feel you are a "hopeless case"?

The solution is near!
You can resolve this and enjoy riding, competing and spending time with your horse in a calm and focused way again! A few facts will help you to understand your fear, doubt and inner criticism and why you could not resolve this yet. If you know better, you can do better!

This is the truth you need to hear to understand your issue:
Facts about the unconscious and the impact on your riding problem:

• High-Speed Processor: While the conscious mind processes limited information, the unconscious handles massive amounts of data instantly, making decisions before conscious awareness occurs. That's why your fear, doubts etc are already an automatic response.
• Influences Daily Decisions: It shapes preferences, social impressions, and behaviors, often leading to actions or reactions the conscious mind doesn't immediately understand. You experience this when you tell yourself that everything is okay, but your body system responds differently.
• "Autopilot" System: It controls automatic bodily functions (breathing), learned skills (driving), and complex patterns without requiring conscious thought. Your doubts and fear appears automatically every time you ride or are with your horse as it happens many times before. Actions you repeat manifest and become automatic.
• Repository of Memory: The unconscious stores forgotten experiences, including traumas, which can still affect behavior later in life. Your riding trauma or your fear of failure is triggered every time you are with your horse. Just looking at your horse ( sometimes any horse) is triggering your stress response.
• ALL emotional responses are unconscious responses. Your unhelpful emotions when riding or being with your horse are not a choice of yours, you cant control or supress them, they just appear. 
• If we are stressed, we regress. Meaning, we are falling back into old habits and responses ( fear, doubt....) because the part of the nervous system which are attached to those emotions are activated. If we are in that state our emotional part of the brain does NOT take any suggestions. That's why telling yourself all is good, other people telling you its okay, pushing yourself that you can do this or even judging yourself that its ridiculous to feel that way , does not work. Your nervous system response affects your body reaction and it responds with faster heart rate , shallow breathing, sweating... and this affects your horse to tense up too. Your horse is a herd animal that relies on the awareness and safety of the herd. In this case the herd is you. If one member of the herd is concerned, the rest will follow. That's how horses have survived millions of years.

How Hypnotherapy resolves your anxiety, fear and self doubt and help you enjoy your horse time again:

• Hypnotherapy saves you precious horse time and also money, by providing a fast, effective, safe and long lasting result
• Hypnosis is a relaxed and receptive state where you can communicate and make changes with your unconscious mind ( where the root cause of your fear and doubt is located)
• Its a way to bypass the conscious critical factor ( I cant do this, I cant overcome my fear, I am a hopeless case....)
• It reduces the mind clutter and helps to focus on what you want
• Hypnotherapy is safe and very relaxing and refreshing
• In Hypnotherapy we focus 5% on the problem and 95% on the solution (you don't get stuck in your past trauma, you don't have to experience the event fully again)
• You are always in control, awake and focused through the entire process
• Our approach is not based on reading a script, we focus 100% on you and your needs
• In Hypnotherapy we use verbal cues, repetition and imagery that is provided by your unconscious to help you overcome your fears and doubts. The intense level of concentration and focus can help you make healthy changes to your habits, feelings or behaviors lonterm
• Riders experience big shifts to their fears, anxiety, self doubt and inner critics after just one session and enjoy riding again. Number of sessions needed varies from rider to rider and depends on severity of issues and for how long this has been a problem.
• Fast results lead to enjoyment in riding, a relaxed rider and therefore a relaxed and focused horse!
• Resolving your mental blocks helps your horse regain his trust in your ability to keep you both safe. Therefore your horse will become less reactive, more calm and focused and also less tensed in his body. You both gain huge benefits, if you resolve your mental obstacles in an effective and lasting way. 

Summary:
Still too many riders are wasting precious time and energy by trying to resolve their riding trauma, doubts and inner critics by trying to talk themselves out of it or practising exercise after exercise with minor results, often throughout months or even years.
In the same timeframe their horse develops more tension and stress as well, because their rider is constantly stressed, tensed ( as a result of the fear, doubt and anxiety) and unfocused, stuck in their own mind.
This leads to an overreactive or shutdown horse that is "boiling" under the surface and just needs a tiny trigger to "explode". This is dangerous for rider and horse and makes this vicious cycle even more complex.
The solution sits in resolving the root cause which is stored in your unconscious mind. 
Get back into riding with enjoyment and trust and save yourself and your horse from becoming chronically stressed and anxious.
