Regarding intuition, if you don't listen to it, it gets quieter. The more you listen to it, and act on it, the more you're able to hear it.

“Another horse at the barn slipped in the mud yesterday and had a nasty fall. I asked her mom if I could practice some somatics with her. Half way through, she yawned 10-15x. When I bent over to lift her front right leg again, she gave me the biggest horse hug of my life, wrapping her whole neck around me and resting her chin on my back for at least 30 seconds. It was AWESOME!”
~ Client Testimonial

There’s an encore presentation happening today if you’d like to work somatically with me virtually, for both yourself and your horse.
There are so many amazing presentations and horselovers to join in with!

Happy Saturday! I’m inviting you to join us for a Somatic Masterclass, for FREE! (One class is with Chutzpah, and one class is with Peggy.)

If you’d like some help keeping your sanity, this class is truly one of the best tools you could have under your belt. Think Ninja level skill set here for navigating life.

I feel pretty dang good about sending you the link to join because of what I know to be true. Practicing these movements will change the resting tonicity of your muscles, which means it resets the “stress response” that is stored in the involuntary part of your brain. Truly magic.

This weekend is the last free preview of the year of “Somatic Wisdom for You & Your Horse”!

Join us via the link in my bio - “Because of the Horse” ❤️

Today and tomorrow only, Saturday the 21st and Sunday the 22nd!

I look forward to having you there!

I hope you enjoy watching and practicing along with me, Peggy, and Chutzpah! This class is a culmination of years of working with horses and their people all over the world! If you’d love to work together, simply DM me to see what’s possible.

I love being part of you and your animals lives!

Blessings,
Gloria

PS -
There are many great presenters this year for you to enjoy!

If you want to jump straight to my classes, here’s how:

That will jump you to my classes.

Thank you to those horse people who have consistently, for almost 20 years now, literally pushed me along to be more visible.
I was the most shy kid on the planet. Shy in every way. I had to overcome a lot to do what I came here to do… To make something more visible that wasn't very visible.
The Spirit of the Horse has been my hearts motivation. Horses have been the driving force behind what I do and don't do.
When I was traveling and teaching, you pretty much had to “know someone”
“who knew someone” to know where I was going to be.
I'm gonna be honest, it's still that way. Every time I try to change that, I have to eventually come to the place to remember to surrender to what is. And I'm more than OK with that. It feels better every time I do it.
I'm also OK with the fact that that may change at some point and look very different from what it does now.
The ability to “zig when you need to zig” and “zag when you need to zag” is part of what I'm here to teach. For both horses and humans.
It is a pivotal piece of true embodiment.
Attunement, autonomy, and agency, are true choice and liberation.
If I go into neuroscience and Somatic Education here, I will lose you.
Not because you’re not intelligent, but because I can't go into years of neuro and somatic education and practice in a single post.
-------------------------------
So I'm gonna say this in a way that I hope everybody gets.
You may want to do something, but that doesn't mean that your brain has a good motor plan for it.
You may want to do something, but the lower part of your brain may have complete control of the situation. It most likely does. Which means it is beyond your voluntary control and awareness.
Hence, you literally cannot zig when you need to zig.
Or worse, you may and PROBABLY DO zag when you need to zig.
That my friend, over time, will create massive pain in your body.
And pain interrupts a good motor plan.
So at that point you are further down a dark rabbit hole of pain and discomfort (and limitation) in your body.
All of this is directly related to your ability or inability to move with ease and grace.
And the same is true for your horse.
---------------------------------
I will probably be 100 years old saying exactly the same thing, hoping those who need to get it will get it.
Do not force or strain, do not yank. You're making it worse.
With your own body or your horses body.
OK I'm gonna stop with that for now.
I am still very much a person who likes to choose who she’s around…
Prefers dirt to concrete and loves horses and all sentient beings.
Including us.
Although I think we’re definitively the hardest species to love, and the most in need of it.
True nature is capable of self-correcting at the drop of a hat.
However, dropping the conditioning is what that's going to take.
----------------------------------------
If you want to begin to learn the process of being able to zig when you need to zig, and zag when you need to zag, go to the invite on my fb page to join me today and tomorrow for my Somatic Wisdom Masterclass for you & your horse.
I look forward to having you there. You've got stuff to do, and the better your ability to seek when you need to see, the better you can get it done.
Blessings,
Gloria

How To Be Happy - Somatic Awareness and Choice 26/06/2023

Here are a few very simple, accessible ways to help regulate your nervous system in ways you may have never heard of before.
Our state of being dictates the quality of our thoughts, and your body is always feeding back to your mind about “how to think.”

Practices are meant to connect you to who you truly are, your true self.
If they’re not doing that, if that’s not occurring, find a different practice, or approach your practice differently.

Cycles of nature like spring always feel so right to me.

It’s the best.

These beginnings and ending of cyclical nature.

Some of them we we naturally prefer, and some of them we don’t.

Anytime something ends, it creates space for new.

And I love that.

Some new awareness, or new sensation. Life is happening all within us and around us. Our calling is to recognize it. And celebrate it in some small way,
or big way, depending on your style.

When Art of the Horseman invited me to be part of their VIRTUAL online fair, it felt like an automatic “yes”.

I hope it will be for you too ~ Both you and your horse will benefit immensely from these classes!

(Link in Bio to join Jan 30th & 31st for FREE!)

And if you don’t have a horse, no worries, your own body will be so much happier for having attended!

This class gives you the foundational practice to have a different kind of conversation with your own body, resulting in a more youthful, easeful body.
I'll share with you some of the same principles that you can enjoy with your horse.

And if you don’t have a horse, no worries, your own body will be so much happier for having attended!

Be sure to share this with your horse loving friends so they (and their horses) can enjoy my new Class too!

I am so happy to be able to share this with you, and I look forward to having you there!

I'm sincerely here for you, and am so grateful to be part of you and your animals live's.

Watch Your Chronic Neck, Back, & Shoulder Pain Vanish. I have a FREE Virtual Class for You! Jan 30th & 31st.

Link to Join is in comments.

Some of the most fun I've ever had was creating this custom class just for you! We've had quiet the last few years of unknowns, and I know that this class, no matter where you are, will benefit you in so many ways.

The tendencies to hold patterns of stress are a deep topic.
The neuroscience lecture on why this is the case is a very complex one! But fortunately you don't have to know the neuroscience behind it right now to be forever changed from joining me.

In this class you'll learn how to release your own chronic neck pain, low back pain/aches, and shoulder limitations, just to name a few of the benefits of joining me.

Whether you have a horse or not, I am so excited to share with you some of my favourite practices.

And if you do have a horse, I look forward to hearing from you about this class! Your horse is waiting :)) I'll teach you how to work with your horse with the same principles!

I'm sincerely here for you, and am so grateful to be part of you and your animals live's.
