I was a confident rider when I started riding 5 years ago, then when we got given our young horse, I didn't ride for a while, because I didn't want to ride him, thinking he was too tall! Then when I started again I was nervous so bad that I couldn't eat when we wwere going for a ride or going to pony club for fears I would be sick. Now I have my second horse, and I now ride confidently and look forward to each ride.

Hi Yoffee, I'm really sorry to hear about your problem. Have a look at the "What Really Bugs You" posts - I've given people lots of advice there. It may be that you need to also progress in coming to terms with the loss of your leg, too. You're welcome to contact me via my website if you'd like to talk. You can get a copy of my monthly newsletter for nervous riders there, too. Kind regards, Caroline http://www.enjoyriding.com

my hubby is a pig farmer, and our horses have taken quite a few years to get used to the smell, he sometimes struggles to get them in if they think he smells too much like pigs!!

Lots of horses hate pigs, don't they? I have to ride past my friends' Vietnamese Pot Bellied pets and it depends how Millie's feeling as to how she behaves! I helped two ladies who had to ride past pigs on a very busy and dangerous road. A combination of Bach Flower Remedies for the horses and keep calm skills for the riders made all the difference. http://www.enjoyriding.com

Just past a field where there's Pigs. Something to do with the smell, or the look. Anyway a horse called Arthur I used to ride would freak out as we rode towards this one particular field.

I am so glad to find this group! Living in Suffolk, I have found it hard to find an instructor that trained with Caroline but, now that I'm moving to near Wisbech, I can book the one I originally wanted as she's nearby! I have regular newsletters from Caroline and this group is a real bonus.
