Back into riding, a tad nervous, any advice?
I recently took some time off riding due to being very busy and wanting to give my horse a vacation. (She was exercised and taken care of the whole time, so dont worry). This Monday I am going to begin riding her again and for some reason I am just a tad nervous, really for no reason at all… I am really bad about holding my breath when I ride and making my horse get nervous . I am an advanced rider that has been riding for 12 years but I am still a little on edge, because I had a riding accident( my first one ever) back this summer with another horse. Any good suggestions, advice, or quotes that can help me along in this rough, nerve crazy period?!
I know how you feel. I took a spill on my mare and it was a doosy. My suggestions are to spend some time grooming and getting to know each other again. Then just take it slow. Even though you didn’t have an accident on her, it’s still scary. I would walk/trot around for a while, longer than warming her up, and do that a couple times. Once you get your confidence back you’ll be ready to do what you normally do.
