Teatime with Elsa - Episode 150

Chatting about: Rest…

In this episode I talk about the importance of rest for our horses and what the different forms of rest can look like. Rest for horses can be as obvious as laying flat out on their side, deep in a dream state, or it can be as subtle as a pause in the use of their senses. We talk about the dynamic that rest has in our training and the differences in the ways that we respond to rest and relaxation in Freedom Based Training® versus in pressure based training methods.
