Congruent






If you had a few months to live, what would do? I would ride more. I am leaving Sunday for a two night trip into southern Michigan. Nothing too involved. Just a horse camping trip. Do it now. Do it while I can.

How do you feel? Right now. Inventory, then relax. Let go... (a million times and then again)

Horses reward you if you will stop and breathe deeply three times. They usually will join up with you between the second and third breath. It is difficult to put a false front on how you are feeling if you practice the three breaths. how you actually feel, not how you would like to feel....that is congruence. Pissed off. resentful. anxious. ..the horses will accept as long as you don't pretend otherwise. Congruent.

congruence

congruency. An idea whose time has come. Horses respond to honesty in the humans relationship to their own emotions. Congruency. Putting a good face on it doesn't cut it with the horse. Don't pretend. If you are afraid....be afraid....if you are angry....be angry.... if you are conflicted.... watch out... at least by in touch with the conflict and don't pretend...don't pretend....don't pretend.....
