Teatime with Elsa - Episode 114

Chatting about: Normalizing appreciation…

In this episode I talk about appreciating our horses for who they are and what they can do. The idea of “never ending improvement” is very normalized and encouraged in today's horse culture. In Freedom Based Training™, it’s not about improving a behavior in the moment, it’s about appreciating the feedback our horses give us, gathering information about our horse and learning from those moments so we can ensure that we are in the right place at the right time and so we can slowly develop the horse’s behavior in low pressure ways in the low stress moments for the future.
