Teatime with Elsa - Episode 111

Chatting about: How fair is freedom?

In this episode I talk about the mental impact of freedom in our horses in different situations and environments. While the thought of freedom for our horses is romanticized and idealistic, the reality is that our horses don't always feel the same way and their ideas of freedom may be different from our own. We discuss the reality of how much freedom we really give our horses and the way that can impact their stress levels and sense of safety, as well as how we can help our horses develop their decision making skills so they can stay safe and find comfort in freedom.
