INCREASED PROBLEM SOLVING ABILITIES
When you ride a horse, you face a communication barrier. You also face physical challenges in keeping yourself balanced and in sync with the horse. And then there are thetimes when your horse doesn’t agree with what you’re asking and would rather do something instead.

When you ride, you’re continuously presented with problems, and you’ll get quite good at figuring out how to solve them.

Riding requires 100% concentration, which means there isn’t a whole lot of room left for outside worries when you’re in the saddle. Riding a horse is a great way to get yourself into the present moment, and can provide a welcome break from the other problems that you’ve been worrying about.
STRESS RELIEF

Many riders refer to their horses as their therapists, and to a degree, it’s true. There’s something about a good ride that makes the rest of the world easier to deal with when you dismount.

When you regularly ride the same horse, you’ll find that you create a relationship with him. Horses provide excellent companionship, and they never talk back – at least not with words.
