In this episode we revisit the book I introduced you to at the beginning of this season, Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess, by Dr Caroline Leaf. I discuss what her 5 step process of mind management is and connect it to horses to help make the strengthen your why to do the work. I finish the episode by discussing the future of Take the Reins and some amazing adventures I have that will bring about a few changes, but MUCH inspiration to the podcast.

In this episode we continue the conversation from the last episode about personality. This week we look at ways that both us and our horses protect ourselves when we do not have our mental, emotion and physical needs met.

In this episode we start the new year off with a potentially life-changing exercise that allows you the space and time to decipher between your traits and symptoms that are showing you need to make some changes in your life, relationships, boundaries, etc. This exercise is as powerful as you let it be and can help you understand yourself and your horse on a deeper level.
