A Mind to Ride - for Stress-free Competitions
If you’re stressed out taking your horse to competitions, you’re not alone. Confidence isn’t a stable commodity (yes, I do know it’s a dreadful pun!) and even the most experienced of riders suffer competition nerves.

A Mind to Ride - In Search of Magic
I started riding horses eighteen years ago at about the same time that I started training to be a hypnotherapist. I thought that it would be a good thing to have a hobby that got me exercising outside since I rather planned to spend my working life sitting still inside. I expected that the learning processes would run parallel; I didn’t expect that I would end up specialising in using my training in hypnotherapy, counselling and personal development to help riders deal with the challenges of riding – but that’s exactly what has happened! A Mind to Ride is the result.
A Mind to Ride combines the ‘Equinimity’ self-hypnosis audio CD with the interactive LifeMapper CD-ROM and is suitable for anyone who understands ‘horsey talk’ as well as riders of all standards and disciplines. You can work independently at flexible times so that you can still meet all your other commitments and a full support programme (face-to-face/telephone/email) is available if you need any extra help.
