The Language of Leadership
I recently had the opportunity to spend several hours working with professional horse trainer Dee Janelle and it reminded me of the powerful lessons in leadership and communication horses offer us if we take the time to listen and truly connect. Working with horses is a lifelong journey of self-discovery as we strive to understand the equine mind. It is no wonder that many of the greatest leaders throughout history were as gifted in their connection with horses as they were with people. Alexander the Great, George Washington, Joan of Arc, Robert E. Lee, even Ronald Reagan were all distinguished equestrians. The Secret Service actually had to assign experienced horsemen in order to keep up with President Reagan and his horse, El Alamein. But what is the underlying factor in this correlation?
The study of nature reveals remarkable patterns of structure, balance, and function. Nothing exists in nature for long if it doesn't serve a purpose. When we examine our natural world we witness systems that have evolved to provide a competitive advantage for survival. Darwin astutely revealed that it wasn't the strongest or the fastest species that thrive, it was the ones most capable of adapting to their environment. Faced with the many challenges of today, business leaders can learn much from the natural world, and horses afford humans a gateway into that world.
Horses have evolved to live within highly functional teams. Comprised of a group of individual sentient beings, the herd offers us a wonderful model of effective leadership and conscious communication. The teamwork of the herd is key to their survival in the wild. Even with a lack of speech, horses are master communicators, maintaining constant connection with one another. Like humans, each horse is an autonomous individual with very different emotional and cognitive attributes. Also like humans, horses require a certain degree of personal space, and maintain healthy boundaries without compromising their interconnectivity. Each herd has a lead stallion as well as a dominant mare, and the greater herd looks to them for their strength, wisdom, and stewardship for survival.
It turns out that horses, just like people, desire congruent, authentic leadership. Without it, the herd cannot survive. This is not ego-derived leadership, as horses don't have what we would call an ego. It is leadership driven by the survival of the herd; leadership that is, by the horses very nature, incapable of obfuscation or incongruence. When working with a horse, it is the human's responsibility to provide this highly conscious level of leadership. Not only for the horse's peace of mind, but for our own safety as well. Interestingly, horses can immediately discern between incongruent leadership and authentic leadership and will refuse to acknowledge the former and gladly join up with the latter.
The first step in establishing leadership with a horse is to engage in a conversation. This isn't one-way communication. It requires the human to understanding the non-verbal language of the horse. I mentioned earlier that horses are sentient beings. They have a highly astute sensitivity to their environment. Human beings have similar capabilities, but our dependence on language has lowered our awareness of this ability. To understand how horses communicate (and in fact, how we humans often communicate unknowingly), let's explore a little background on non-verbal connection and communication.
Recent advances in neurophysiology have revealed the neural networks we human beings have in parts of our bodies other than the brain. Our hearts have more than five million neurons, capable of the same informational and electromagnetic function as the neurons in our brain. One difference, however, is the electromagnetic field of the heart is five thousand times stronger than the electromagnetic field of our brain. This network acts almost like radar, actively scanning for signals in our environment. Our gastrointestinal system is also populated with neurons. More neurons than exist in our entire spinal column. The old sayings, "his heart wasn't in it" or "she had a gut feeling" actually have a basis in scientific fact. These "embodied" neural networks are connected to our brain via the vagus nerve (vagus is latin for wandering, as this neural pathway wanders throughout our bodies).
Our attachment to language actually creates a barrier in our ability to recognize and "listen" to our embodied "minds". These neural networks connect to our brain at the basal ganglia. This ancient part of our brain evolved prior to our cerebral centers that enable speech, and there is no direct pathway between this base section of our brain and our higher functioning, language processing regions. Therefore, the information that comes into our consciousness through these neural networks is non-verbal. It comes to us in the form of emotions, in the form of sensations and feelings. What many people refer to as intuition.
Additional research has also proven the existence of "mirror neurons" in our brains as well. These are neural cells that are capable of sensing the emotional charge of other beings around us. We actually pick up on other peoples' emotions and states of being and react biochemically to these stimuli.
As fellow mammals, horses are wired in a similar way. The combination of their size (think of how much larger their hearts and guts are to ours) and their lack of dependency on speech, makes them more non-verbally sensitive and aware of the impulses and stimuli in their environment through these embodied, sensory networks. As prey animals, they live on the edge of fear response, highly tuned to the fight/flight/freeze response. In order for humans to engage in a conversation with a horse we must heighten our own non-verbal sensitivity; to pick up on the subtle cues that speak so loudly in the equine world but are often overlooked in our own.
The fact is, more than ninety percent of human communication is non-verbal as well. Connecting, communicating, and leading a horse requires us to heighten our own self-awareness; to reconnect with our embodied sensing and cognitive abilities. To stop talking and start listening with our entire being, our entire presence. It demands congruency of intention as well. Fast talking, incongruent leaders may be able to fool people (for a time), but they'll never fool a horse. Through experiencing relationship with a horse, leaders improve their ability to communicate, to converse authentically with the full spectrum of their being, to recognize the importance of leading from the heart as well as the head.
Is it any wonder why Ronald Reagan was nicknamed, "The Great Communicator"?

Horse Riding Hats - Always Remember Safety First
There is nothing like the feeling of exhilaration when you are riding. It represents such a feeling of freedom; just you and the horse and the nature all around you. Indeed, this all feels so natural and "at one with the world," that you could be forgiven for overlooking some fundamental safety considerations. As much fun as this is, it is also an inherently dangerous activity. There is always the chance that you could be thrown, or that the horse could stumble and you could be ejected. You need to take every precaution when it comes to safety and you should select from a list of approved horse riding hats before you even think of jumping into that saddle.
Whether you are a beginner, an established rider or someone who participates in competition, you must know the risks involved. The riding hat is probably your first line of defence in case of incident and you should not spare any expense or any effort in finding one which is suitable. Remember that you should wear your riding hat when you're not even actually riding, as whenever you are around your horse, there is the risk of a kick.
Today, there are a variety of good riding hats and you should always look for the appropriate certification to help you choose. In the United Kingdom the first thing you should seek out is a British Standards Institute kite mark, or the BSEN 1384 safety tag. Look for a good guarantee from the manufacture, which will indicate how far they stand behind the product, as you will hopefully use the helmet for several years before it needs replacement.
Be sure to try on your riding hat for size carefully before you buy. Remember, that it should fit comfortably but should not move at all if you move your head vigorously. It should cover not only the forehead but the back of your head as well and be suitably ventilated to ensure that you are comfortable when riding.
Riding hats are not designed to last forever and you should budget to replace them after three years at the most. Also, if you are unlucky enough to sustain a blow to the helmet, you are advised to replace it even though you may not see any visible damage as such. Internally there could be some unseen damage, which would certainly compromise its effectiveness during another incident.
Do not be tempted to cut corners and buy a used helmet, or to use somebody else's as you never know what history is attached to that particular item. Horse riding hats have been specifically designed for the purpose and you should not try out any other solution, such as an ice hockey helmet, or a bicycle helmet. Remember that it is your safety, if not your life at stake here, so choose wisely. Riding hats should never be uncomfortable or a nuisance and should neither detract from your enjoyment, or your ability to compete appropriately when on horseback.

Equestrian Style by Moon, Vicky Edition ILL, 0 $38.49 Elegant equestrians in impeccable attire; glorious hunt balls held in museums; a procession of regal foxhunting paintings in a home fit for a polo king and his brood—the world of horses is full of imagery. Extending far beyond the stable, the racetrack, and the polo field, our love of all things equine appears everywhere from our closets to our dining rooms. Now journalist and horse-world fixture Vicky Moon captures the equestrian way of life with an unprecedented peek into dozens of stunning residences. You’ll visit a French-accented mansion decorated with contemporary horse art; an equestrian resort on 395 acres, complete with cottages for rent and a large private collection of carriages; a spa with a swimming pool for horses; and a working barn that Kathryn Ireland decorated to do double duty as a home for a professional horseman, riding instructor, and model whose students included Jackie Kennedy Onassis.Horse enthusiasts will be delighted to find familiar names and faces of the horse world gracing these luxurious pages, from art masters of the past such as painter George Stubbs and sculptor Herbert Haseltine to today’s most popular artists, including Liza Todd Tivey and Beverly Zimmer. Equestrian devotees, such as the up-and-coming star Mayan Lopez, show jumper Georgina Bloomberg, and the late Allaire du Pont, are profiled with their beloved horses and the collections and fashions that reflect their passions. With beautiful photographs, richly detailed stories, and practical advice, Equestrian Style is certain to inspire horse lovers everywhere to bring a stylish bit of the stable into their homes.In this luxurious tour through stylish equestrian-themed interiors, Vicky Moon captures the rich details—from the coveted to the quirky—of the art, architecture, clothing, and people inspired by the classic horse motif.Equestrian style begins with a basic love of horses. It is more than a feisty, wet Jack Russell terrier, a pair of Wellington boots, and a tweed jacket. It goes beyond hanging a hunting print on the dining room wall to actually leaping over stone walls on your favorite hunter. An unspoken equestrian philosophy surpasses wearing an Hermès scarf; it celebrates riding over jumps in an Hermès saddle. Equestrian style reaches its apex among people ­who not only love horses, but also practically live with them. It is an enduring tradition. |

Clearing the Obstacles - A Guide to Show Jumping
Going to horse shows, the equestrian show jumping event is one of the most popular attractions. The team work between horse and man, the physical challenges of overcoming obstacles, the pressures of a timed event, make show jumping a truly marvelous spectacle to watch.
In a show jumping course, there are five different types of jumps to overcome:
-verticals
-spreads
-combinations
-walls
-water jumps
Prior to the event, the riders will study the course to determine the best strategy to tackle it. They calculate how many strides between each jump and the tightest line to take in order to save time. However, it is usually best to go over the allotted time than to be assessed penalties.
Penalties, or faults can be assessed by the following ways:
-knocking over an obstacle: 4 faults
-first disobedience of horse for refusing a jump: 4 faults
-rider falls off the horse: 8 faults
-exceeding the time limit: either a quarter-point per second or 1 point per second
The above are considered minor infractions but there are other infractions that result in disqualification:
-second disobedience from the horse
-horse refusing a jump for more than 45 seconds
-a fall by the horse
-going the wrong way in the obstacle course, missing a turn or a jump
-receiving help from an outside source while on course
To negotiate an obstacle course under the prescribed amount of time, trust and cooperation is vital for a successful run with no penalties. When a horse gets head strong and the rider has to react by pulling on the reins, kicking hard or turning hard, that's a sign that the partnership is not going well.
The horse jumps over the obstacles guided by the motion of the riders legs and the reins. However, the horse can also sense the rider's emotions and reacts to that as well. It is a constant interaction between the rider and the horse. A perfect run through the obstacle course should seem effortless as the horse and rider work in unison.
Unlike other sports and their horse racing counterparts, show jumping horses get better with age and experience. The top horses are between nine and fifteen years of age with at least four years of training. Likewise, the riders need the experience and discipline to remain calm to guide the horse through the obstacle course.
Indeed, show jumping is an equestrian event where grace under pressure marks the characteristics of a champion rider and horse alike.

Blazing Saddles $4.69 Rated: NASynopsis: The face of movie comedy was changed forever by Mel Brooks's raucous but affectionate spoof of old-fashioned Hollywood westerns, and for that reason alone Blazing Saddles belongs in every DVD home library. Writer-director Brooks not only lampooned the hoariest horse opera clichés in this 1974 romp, he also challenged the self-censorial political correctness then just beginning to creep into Hollywood films. The justifiably notorious campfire scene, which some critics decried as unnecessarily coarse and vulgar, heralded a veritable flood of movie gags involving bodily functions. By today's standards, the flatulent frontiersmen seem pretty tame. But after 30 years, what still startles is the frequent and all-too-casual use of the n-word to describe Cleavon Little's character, the former railroad worker appointed as sheriff of Rock Ridge, a town beset by rustlers and bad guys working for a corrupt government official (Harvey Korman). Racial slurs aside, the laughs come fast and furious as the sheriff combats range ruffians with the aid of a drunken gunfighter (Gene Wilder, stealing nearly every scene he's in) and a leggy femme fatale (Madeline Kahn, in a hilarious takeoff on the saloon girl played by Marlene Dietrich in Destry Rides Again). Blazing Saddles and its successor, the Brooks-directed Young Frankenstein, forever changed the way Hollywood looked at itself. These no-holds-barred comedies, with their sophomoric innuendoes and self-referential excesses, remain templates for filmmakers who specialize in parody. Blazing Saddles, the first and more daring of the two, still has the power to raise eyebrows and drop jaws, three decades after its big-screen debut. Based on what has followed in its wake, that's pretty amazing. Vulgar, crude, and occasionally scandalous in its racial humor, this hilarious bad-taste spoof of Westerns, co-written by Richard Pryor, features Cleavon Little as the first black sheriff of a stunned town scheduled for demolition by an encroaching railroad. Little and co-star Gene Wilder have great chemistry, and the delightful supporting cast includes Harvey Korman, Slim Pickens, and Madeline Kahn as a chanteuse modelled on Marlene Dietrich. As in Young Frankenstein (1974), Silent Movie (1976), and High Anxiety (1977), director/writer Mel Brooks gives a burlesque spin to a classic Hollywood movie genre; in his own manic, Borscht Belt way, Brooks was a central player in revising classic genres in light of Seventies values and attitudes, an effort most often associated with such directors as Robert Altman and Peter Bogdanovich . Some of this film's sequences, notably a gaseous bean dinner around a campfire, have become comedy classics.

Choosing the right horse saddle pads
Shopping for a saddle pad for your mounted steed can quickly turn into a confusing experience. The right horse saddle pads might not be as easy to find as you first thought. There are several things to consider when picking the right saddle pad. Once you make it through the basics, you can shop for a special pad that will make riding a pleasure for you and your horse.
RIDING STYLE
You want a saddle pad that will fit your saddle. This means you need horse saddle pads appropriate to your discipline. Using a large Western pad under a small all purpose saddle is not going to be comfortable for you or the horse, while a pad that is too small will allow the saddle to slide up and rub against your horse.
FUNCTION
Horse saddle pads are used to reduce the pressure of the saddle, and it lifts the gullet off the horse's back. This is one of the main features you need to think about when purchasing any pad. You will also want to make sure that it will absorb pressure to eliminate back pain for the horse from a poorly fit saddle or pad.
FEATURES
Any of the horse saddle pads you decide on should be non-slip, easy to clean and store, and be a weight you can handle. There are large variations in the weight of saddle pads, depending on the material they are made of. Price is also a big determiner for many of us; you can find a high quality pad without the ultra high price tag.
Don't skimp and buy the least expensive, but shop and get one that will last.
TYPES OF PADS
Horse saddle pads can be made from a variety of materials. Depending on how often you ride, or the special needs of your horse, you can find the right pads. Synthetic fleece pads are one of the most common horse saddle pads. While these might be good for occasional riding, over time, the pad stops wicking moisture away from your horse. It also holds heat more, and dirt builds up quickly on these pads. Gel pads are the newest horse saddle pads on the market. While these pads are a top choice if using one saddle on different horses (the pads mold well to different conformation), this pad seems to be a pad with a short life. Some people have complained that with heavy use, it can actually cause soreness to a horse over time. Foam pads are both good for moisture control, as well as resisting impact. For extensive riding on the trail or in the show ring, these pads are a good recommendation for riders.
No saddle pad can correct a poorly fitted saddle. No matter what horse saddle pads you own, make sure your horse has a saddle that is wide enough and sits comfortably. If your horse is performing well after a long ride, you probably have a good saddle - the saddle pad will be an enhancement for the riding experience. Your horse is an athlete. Make sure you take care of him with the right equipment - and always keep it clean to avoid developing sores.
