🐴 GET GOOD HORSEMANSHIP TIP 2.
✨ The Horse Filter - a simple tool when emotions run high
When we care deeply about our horses, it’s easy to blur the line between loveand load.
This is a simple grounding tool I use and teach, especially with sensitive, expressive or “complicated” horses.
I call it The Horse Filter.
Before you act, pause and ask:
🔹 What does the horse need right now to feel safe?
🔹 Do I need to bring more clarity or more softness in this moment?
🔹 Am I regulating myself…or asking the horse to regulate me?
This isn’t about becoming cold or distant.
It’s about species-appropriate empathy - understanding what a horse needs, not what a human heart wants in that moment.
Strong relationships are built on clarity, consistency and calm - not on absorbing each other’s emotions.
If you have a sensitive horse, this filter can change everything.
For you and the horse, always.
