International Women’s Day!
No one is as strong as a horsewoman!

If you have horses, you learn to be a leader, take responsibility, have empathy and much more. However, it can backfire if you have too much around you and the brain ghosts suddenly take over and we become afraid of what we love most.

It is not uncommon to be afraid to ride, but still want to get on the horse again, or afraid of his best friend in the stable and not understand why.

It happened to me and if it has happened to you, then let me help you on the right keel again. I have amassed a lot of tools that are effective and have a lifetime of experience with horses, so I know I can help you.

You have everything to gain and nothing to lose except a little time 🙂

How should I be able to ride when it is raining-blowing-snowing-is mud-slippery and so on?

You may not need to ride that day, you can always come up with other things if you want to spend time with your horse.

I just can not stand to groan when the horse is long-haired and has rolled in the mud, you think, but take the hooves instead! You can, for example, teach the horse to take up its hooves even if you are standing on the opposite side. It is excellent therapy to get the horse to lift its legs when doing it in a certain way and very useful.

You can also teach the horse a little trick when it is in the stable and it is not about the trick itself, but to be with the horse. Learn to listen and understand and have a fellowship with it.

Make “boring” days nice days! We have the horse to have fun and get away from everyday life 🙂

This is Liselotte… ..

I just had to share this picture (Liselotte has of course given me permission)

When I spoke to Liselotte for the first time just before New Year’s, she was extremely sad, as she no longer dared to ride her beautiful horse.

Courage had let her down, she was very down and did not know how to get back to her true self. We started working together shortly after New Year’s and this is the result only 1.5 months later.

We will continue a little longer when my program is 3 months, so we are sure that she will not fall back to her sad state again.

I’m so proud of her and she’s totally happy.

This has also changed me as a human being, she says, I am much happier in my everyday life, and long to go out to the horse again. If you yourself have problems and for some reason have become scared or think you have lost your courage, do not hesitate to contact Anne. There is no reason to feel bad but there are many ways to move on.

Be kind to yourself!
How often do we not say to ourselves: ohh how stupid in my head I am… ..I have always been bad at that …… I always forget…. Why am I so damn cowardly, and much much more.
If you had talked like that to a friend, you would not have been friends anymore!
Why do we do this?
Why is it so hard to pat ourselves on the back and say: you actually did well today.
If we tell a lie often enough, it will come true! What do you become if you constantly put yourself in the shadows and do not think you know anything?
There is hope:
If you think about it, you can break the habit! You can always find things that you actually can and are good at, you can also find many things to be grateful for. It’s not good to be negative and especially not for long periods of time, so think about what you can say to the friend that makes him happy and then say it to yourself. You gain absolutely nothing by being so hard on yourself, no one thanks you for that!

When the water freezes!
Don’t we all have days like this?

You already know it when you wake up in the morning.

The first thing you do is hit your little toe in the headboard.

When you then go to the stable and notice that the water hose is frozen, even though you have done your best to empty it, even though you have put a blanket over it.

Then you go up and check the water tubs and of course the horses have kicked one apart, to kick holes in the ice, although you have done that and removed the ice before you went to bed.

I have moved to Hungary, just to have less winter (which I also have) but of course, there will be days like this / nights, with frost and misery.

Just can not understand how I endured for several months in Sweden in this way!

How do you do then?

How do you go about not wanting the horses where the pepper grows and not just ignoring everything?

For my own part, I try to think positively, even if it is very difficult in that particular situation. I try to remember something that I can laugh at and try to laugh at myself, what I probably look like in other people’s eyes.

I also tell myself that I do not have to, but I choose to do what I do and usually I can be in a slightly better mood.

It’s a waste of time to be angry and grumpy and if you look long enough, you can always find something you can be grateful for 🙂

Are you in a hurry in the stable or are you taking your time?

For my own part, I think that adult life means a lot of “musts”. The stable must be clean, the horses taken care of, the home must be clean, supper, etc.

A while ago I came to myself and thought about how you felt as a child.

You had all the time in the world for the horse, you could spend hours grooming or just sitting in the pasture and watching them.

In recent years, I have come back to it more, give it time, do some useless things and feel much better.

We have the horses because we feel good when we hang out with them, so do it and let go of these “musts”

What does your brain tell you when you are going to saddle the horse?

I hope he’s in a good mood and not throwing me off today? Should I lung before sitting up? It’s just a little walking and trotting, I’m not ready for a gallop?

Or does it say: Geez what fun it will be, I just long? Think now can we start training a little on the new exercise? Ohhh just have to ride out a turn in the woods, it’s such nice weather?

There is a big difference in what the brain can tell you how to feel. It is actually possible to teach the brain to be positive and with that you get a much better feeling and also a much better and more fun riding. Would you like to change your mindset and get a better ride?

How can we ensure that 2022 will be a fantastic year?

You can not do that 100%, but you can do a lot to prepare and get the best out of it! Plan and go according to your wishes, aim for the stars, then you reach the moon, but if you do not aim at all, the chance of nothing being done is great.

It does not matter if your goals are big or small, but if you work towards them, you can steer yourself towards ending up right.

Take an hour and think about what you want your life to look like in 2022 and think about whether you can make it happen.

If you have plans for your horse life, I will be happy to help you get your wishes fulfilled, just order a free call at www.anneaxell.com/appointment
I wish you a fantastic 2022 and hope to see you, if nothing else in the group!

Feel free to tell us about your expectations! If you tell about it, there is a greater chance that it will become a reality!
Thank you for a rewarding year 2021 to all my customers and members!

If you have any wishes about the group, the courses or anything else, do not hesitate to let me know! I’m here to help 🙂
Wishing you a fantastic 2022!

How are your plans for 2022?

We all have plans and expectations for the new year as it approaches. How has it been before? Have you kept your promises to yourself, or does it flow out when “life comes in between”?

It is not difficult to have expectations when you are healthy, have a job, the weather is ok and that the horse is also healthy, but what if it were the opposite? It is not a question of what will happen, but WHEN it will happen.

Life is structured in such a way that there is as much bad as good and just as you think that now it starts to roll on, something happens. The good times of life are about, how to handle the difficult situation and positive thinking can do a lot.

Let us all keep the positive spirit in the group and where we can spread joy. I experienced for myself that I was happy about all the Merry Christmas greetings when I was sick and I am sure it helped me recover much faster.

The horses are wonderful, so hug your horse when you have cleared snow and mocked and thawed the frozen water and remember that it is your friend, even in difficult times.Just a few thoughts from me, now that the new year is approaching.

I have high expectations for 2022 and the power of thought is not wrong. I believe in the future and as long as you carry the hope within you, you can feel satisfied. I will do my best to help as many as I can and keep a positive spirit.

Christmas greetings from Anne
