In this special episode, Jenny asks Mark to explain some of the terminology he uses when assessing and working with horses — and, more importantly, what is actually happening in the horse’s mind. Mark explains what a healthy “flow” mindset looks like, how to recognise when a horse is coping versus shutting down or shutting out, and why a horse that appears quiet may actually be carrying a significant amount of worry. You’ll also learn how Mark uses resets to bring a horse back into an active, thinking state, how horses can learn to process pressure rather than simply escape it, and what he means by eye brace — when a horse’s eyes and mind stop searching and interacting with what is happening around them. The episode also explores the “worry cup”, why allowing a horse to make decisions can help reduce anxiety, and why understanding a horse’s history and previous training is so important when deciding how to help them. A fascinating insight into how Mark reads a horse’s mindset — and how changing that mindset can change the way a horse learns, responds and feels.
