In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview the amazing Nahshon Cook. Nahshon is a horse trainer based in America who predominately works to rehabilitate horses and has a strong focus on biomechanics and awareness.   He has such a beautiful way with words and I feel like anyone who listens to this podcast episode will get the medicine that they need.   Together we dive into: -The different modalities he uses to rehabilitate horses -The concept of surrendering -How important it is to listen with your entire body and be guided by feel -The importance of not needing to be right and being adaptable to find what the horse needs - Channeling the wisdom from the horse - How correct training shouldn't hurt horses - Using how you see your horse move in the pasture to inform how you help them - How arena work is only 10% of the whole process and environment plays a huge role in the horse's wellbeing - Tapping into joy and allowing horses to feel safe expressing themselves - Combining technique and love - Teaching people how to use their breath to release tension and set intentions - Prioritising the question "how can I help you?" - How he feels about horses saying no  - What practices people can use to form a deeper connection with their horse -Trusting yourself -Using compassionate commands to allow people to tap into their intuition -Being adaptable with your students and understanding that people and horses learn in many different ways -Finding reference points where the other party feels safe and connecting from there -Loving horses before you love what horses do And so much more!
