Description

Falling off isn’t just a physical setback, it can leave deep marks on a rider’s confidence and mindset. In this episode, we dive into practical strategies for both riding instructors and riders themselves on how to rebuild trust, overcome fear, and take small but powerful steps back into the saddle.


Together with Lorna, we unpack:




  • Why getting back on quickly matters (and when it doesn’t).




  • How to identify whether it’s pain, fear, or both holding you back.




  • Practical step-by-step ways to return to riding safely.




  • The role of visualization and imagination in regaining confidence.




  • Simple tools like focus points, anchors, and hypnosis for resetting the mind.




Whether you’re an instructor guiding a shaken student, or a rider struggling with fear yourself, this conversation offers grounded insights and powerful mindset tools to help you (or your riders) move forward with courage.
