Back to EpisodesWhy You Always Expect the Worst With Your Horse (And How to STOP Catastrophising!)
Description
Do you find yourself constantly expecting the worst when you’re around your horse?
In this episode, we’re diving into catastrophising—what it is, why your brain does it, and how it’s impacting your confidence, riding, and connection with your horse.
If you’ve ever imagined falling off, your horse bolting, or something going wrong (even when everything is actually fine), this episode will help you understand why—and more importantly, how to change it!
You’ll learn:
- What catastrophising really is (and why it’s not your fault)
- Common examples in horse riding and everyday life
- How it affects your nervous system, confidence, and your horse
- Simple, practical tools to stop spiralling into worst-case scenarios
- How to feel calmer, more in control, and confident in the saddle
This is your first step towards breaking the cycle of fear and overthinking—and starting to trust yourself again!
