EquiCoach - Mastering Rider Mindfulness

25/06/2024

Over the past ten years, I have worked with riders of all disciplines in understanding how stress affects us in the ring and a program that centers on mastery (learning and growing) vs. performance orientation (expectations).

My program, Mastering Rider Mindfulness, touches on how riders can break through internal barriers, conquer fears, overcome nerves and take their riding to the next level independent of skill.

I have been blessed to work with young riders, amateurs, professionals and international riders from ages 11 to 70+. My comprehensive program consists of an assessment, workbooks and 1:1 calls for 12 weeks. Currently offering $200.00 off for anyone who signs up in June/July.

I am also looking to schedule another group session starting September 2nd.

Please email or DM for more information.

Mastering Rider Mindfulness Coaching Group Session

If you are looking to create awareness, decrease stress in the ring, understand what drives your fear, learn how to change your perception of your rides, and meet your goals, this upcoming program may be just what you are looking for!

Program details:
• Starting December 4th, 2023
• 10 weekly interactive and virtual group calls that can assist riders in creating their success formula and empower all to practice learnings.
• Group coaching
• Digital workbooks full of rich content, designed by COR.E Performance Dynamics. Workbook modules include:
o Foundation Principles – Whether for competition or the enjoyment of riding, this is an introduction to the roadmap to mastery, concepts, exercises, and experiences that riders will need to increase their current and future riding potential.
o Influencers – These modules are all about understanding current beliefs, testing those beliefs, and creating new, more potent, and effective action plans. See what influences performance and how that differs from what riders believed previously.
o Disciplines – This is an in-depth review of th e 10 COR.E disciplines to reach high potential performance and build a long-term life philosophy that resonates with how riders show up to the ring. First riders will learn, second practice, third live them and by doing so, shift attitudes and belief systems.
• Access to a proprietary app, SCOPE, that shares what factors are influencing riders selected activity and performance, as well as how engaged they are in the moment of their task.
• Energy Leadership Index Assessment and group debrief. The E.L.I is an on-line attitudinal assessment that enables riders to hold a mirror to their perceptions, attitude, and behaviors experienced in the ring.
• One on one coaching calls available at an additional cost
• Scheduled calls are Monday's at 5:30pm
• Two additional makeup calls for those who couldn't attend or missed.
• Calls that fall on a holiday will be added on or rescheduled with groups input.

Since my coaching is confidential, unless shared by testimonials and clients, I will be sharing how I show up to ride, my stress influencers and energy levels. The higher the levels of energy, the more positive way of our thinking, action and less judgment we bring. The graph shares my energetic profile and what it says about me and how I show up to ride and how I perceive my life at this time. It shares my primary, secondary and tertiary energy levels or in layman terms, how I lead my life. When we understand our current self-aware dna and then how we stress, that is where the ahahh’s begin. My profile reads, I have synergistic partnerships and I believe that everyone wins or no-one wins. I can be a rare visionary who take action with no delay, fear or doubt. My stress reaction, which we all have, is one of self doubt (my gremlin or inner critic) and guilt and a weight on my shoulders can create that stress. Then I get frustrated and angry but will be determined to@find a solution. This assessment and understanding is essential piece in mastering our self-awareness and mindfulness.

Just think of how we would grow and learn if we didn’t judge our rides, others and ourselves!

Love this and couldn’t agree more!!

Saw a post today about a life setback that wasn’t a choice made. Whether we initiate or it is made for us, it can halt us in our tracks and may create negativity in our life.

One of the examples that helps me and I share with my clients is life can be similar to playing g cards. Hear me out on this one.

Let’s say our “hand”is going well and then a card we have been playing is taken away and now we have to re-evaluate.

The deck is shuffled. We pick up a new card, look at it, play a few hands and then decide it will not work so we reshuffle, put back and pick up a new one. We may have to continue to do so in order to feel comfortable with our hand again, but it is a continuation of playing and evaluating before we feel comfortable or happy with what we have. This can go on for some time as we work through loss, change of horses, fear and re-evaluating our life values. It is a normal process, but how we view the journey is the key.

Happy riding,

Cathy

One of the four performance blocks is assumptions. In the show or schooling ring, if you assume it is going to happen, then it just may. If you are the type to replay and judge by labelling your rides, bad or horrible and point out all that went wrong; reframe your thinking into mastery and find what you learned and how you can grow. 7th Level Equestrian, Master Your Performance and De-Stress Your Ride is a virtual program that will share in depth details about all 4 performance blocks. Sign up today. https://7thlevelequestrian.mykajabi.com/ dressage

Whether you are an amateur riding for fun or a top-tier competitor, equestrians want to use all the capacity they have built as a result of training for countless hours and spending significant sums of money to hone their skills. One of the main challenges for athletes is consistency:

I am super excited to share information about a virtual course that will go live on March 1st! The 7th Level Equestrian - Mastering Your Ride is a program with rich content and can be completed at your own pace. Check it out! bit.ly/7thlevelequestrian

Who benefits? Riders that experience:

- A lack of confidence
- Fear or anxiety
- Frustration in their schooling
- Loss of true enjoyment of their ride
- Difficulty transferring what works in practice to the show ring
- Inability to perform at a high level under pressure
- Self-sabotage before, during, and after the ride
- Trouble dealing with distraction – in and out of the ring
- Inability to set and reach short- AND long-term goals
-Difficulty getting and motivated to do all that it takes for performance – practice, nutrition, fitness, and more

I am truly blessed as I love having the opportunity to work with amazing riders to conquer fear, understand stress and increase their performance no matter what skill level or discipline.

Cheers to a successful year where we can all learn to love to ride again and master our performance! ❤️🐎😃
