There has been a few times I've gone up to play with Lily and just couldn't get into the right mindset. It's a shame but it will happen and I have to decide at that moment if I can get into the right frame of mind or if it's best to play another day. Today the sun was shining on and off, I'm not feeling as bad as I have been so I popped up for a few hours. We just had a play with the plan of free-wheeling in mind and things were going so well that I thought it'd be nice to play at liberty in the fenced off area at the bottom of the fields. As we were moseying down, I felt a lot of thresholds from the both of us so I didn't push it and played mostly the squeeze game and sideways/advancing and retreating before turning her out to end the play session.
On Tuesday evening, my friend Kate and I went out to my first Shropshire Parelli social get together. It was good fun with a range of abilities, including Carmen Smith and others from the Stoneleigh office who to came to surprise Shropshire's 1* instructor, Sally Brett and hang out after a busy day at work. I was anxious about going with all that has happened this past week and all but I'm glad I went. Carmen took some photos of us all and we should hopefully be in next week's E-news! :) |

Pre-Parelli I did the best with what I knew but now I know better; I want to do better!

I am owned by this gorgeous piebald cob mare, Lily. She's an interesting character, fun to play with and is a great teacher.
There's more about her on her own page.

It's not about disposable horses; it's about relationships for life.
It's not about quick fixes and artificial aids, it's about savvy; true understanding and expertise.
It's not about winning and others losing; It's about win-win: you and the horse need to feel good.
It's not about me me me; It's about changing the world for horses, becoming a person of knowledge and influence, and sharing what you know.
It's not about fear and doubt; It's about unconditional love and trust.
Love for the empowerment of others and trust that you'll never ask the horse to do something that would hurt or diminish his dignity.
Reveal your horse. Discover your potential. Live your dream.
-Parelli
