  • #14 Body Awareness and Balanced Movement with Janelle Cameron
    2024/10/29

    Janelle, also known as the Equestrian Motion Coach, is a strength and performance coach inspiring equestrians to move better both on the ground and in the saddle.

    This interview was recorded way back in March of this year (2024). Listening to it again, it was re-inspiring to hear Janelle’s perspective on balancing and aligning our bodies for our own sake, and our horses. Especially now, as I’m currently 9 months pregnant at the time of this episode being published, I’m learning again in a whole new way how the importance of a daily movement routine is so essential. Movement is life, perhaps even more so for horses than ourselves. So, if we aren’t already prioritizing balanced movement in our lives, it’s high time we start!

    In this interview we talk about:

    + Why all riders are athletes, regardless of how they feel about it because they’re a teammate to their horse

    + How Janelle began connecting her studies of Kinesiology and biomechanics of humans to horses

    + How body awareness is the missing piece for many riders

    + How to motivate yourself to prioritize a movement practice (and even be able to do it in your jeans)

    + Why breathing mechanics are essential in your movement practice and how it will change your life

    + Ways we can become more aware of the core muscles and how to use them more effectively

    + Training our bodies to be strong and balanced so that we are better able to ride through any trip or unexpected movement our horse makes

    + The mind-body connection, and how we need to have both our physical and mental game strong to perform our best

  • #13 Navigating Grief and Transforming From Pain
    2024/09/22

    Grief and pain will make you a stranger to yourself. It will compromise your system. Everything becomes a reminder of what you’ve lost, or your limitations.

    How do we prepare ourselves for the end of life? How do we move on after the loss of a loved one? And how can we find strength of spirit even when it feels like our body is working against us?

    This episode is about my journey navigating grief after the devastating loss of a loved one, and coping with chronic pain in a condensed timeline. My journey with grief and pain is unique in that it’s also been inextricably linked to creating new life, as I found out I was pregnant not long after losing one of the most important people in my life. However, it’s made me see that when we break down the process down into its bare parts, the cycle of death bringing new life is something we all experience in some way.

    In this episode I talk about:

    + The importance of training ourselves our eyes to see signs of pain (in both human and nonhuman animals)

    + How strength of spirit is so much more valuable than physical strength

    + The phenomenon of losing a loved one and then birthing new life into the world

    + How grief and pain transform us when we unflinchingly open our senses to them

    + My insights on how to navigate the grieving process, and how there is no right or wrong way to grieve

    + Why I have the utmost respect and empathy for those who suffer from chronic pain

    + How time with my horses, even very limited, has helped me to find strength of spirit when I needed it most

  • #12 Raising Energy and Active Pendulum Dowsing with Dana Jenkins
    2023/12/01

    Dana is an Equine Massage Therapist, Energy Worker for horses & humans, and a wild horse advocate who eloquently speaks volumes about her work - and something you may not have heard of, but you should know about: Active Pendulum Dowsing.

    This episode truly needs little introduction. To preface, though as I like to do, I’ll simply share some highlights that we get into in this interview. Also, I’m excited to say that Dana is offering 15% off of her offerings to Members of The Herd who support the podcast. So enjoy the episode, and get in on this deal if you’re as curious about this mind-blowing modality as I am!

    In this interview we talk about:

    + How Dana’s childhood horse helped her co-regulate and get through traumas she didn’t yet have the tools to cope with

    + Why Dana says her leaving the horse world was her biggest regret - and how she came back to horses later in life

    + How unprocessed emotions are stored in the body

    + Dana’s introduction to the world of energy work and pendulum dowsing through working with a shaman

    + How horses came back into Dana’s life when she began to heal herself

    + Her journey becoming an Equine Bodyworker, and why she feels that the energy work she was doing facilitated her getting to that point

    + How everyone has the gift of intuition - it’s up to us whether we trust, believe in, or cultivate our abilities

    + And finally how energy work can help us come back into balance in a number of ways, through clearing obstacles, patching energy leaks, and opening us to positivity on the subtle body frontiers.
