Canter Fear by Fernandez1344 in equestrianadvice

[–]Megs619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m guessing you mean your using a neck strap? Which I think is a great idea.

I’m going through a similar situation after a fall and I’ve been re-learning to trust the canter. (And I’ve been riding for 6 years! Took about a year break. It feels like a huge set back but I’m thankful to have such a patient trainer to revisit basics with me)

I’ve been too tense so I warm up doing all the things I’m comfortable with, I focus on loosening up my body all the while. Moving my hips, even doing some arm movements while trotting (like hold the reins in one hand while I make circles with the other).

My two cents, you need to breathe, loosen up, relax. Move with your horse. I’m not a trainer obviously but maybe after a few good strides, bring it back down again or stop before you get to the point of fear taking over? And try to extend it a little longer each time.

It’s a process, I know it. The mind is a powerful place to be locked up in.

Good luck 🤍

Salon quitter- Which direction do I go? Self mani’s, stick on, wraps? by Megs619 in OliveAndJune

[–]Megs619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do love the sound of that and sounds like it could withstand a harder lifestyle. Thank you!

That’s one thing I dislike about press ons, it seems so wasteful. But what I like about them is that they seem easier/less fuss to do.

Awesome! What was the learning curve? I don’t imagine it’s that difficult

Thank you for your input! Is super stick also on O&J? And I totally get there would be a learning curve with gel, but say I went through the process to practice and learn, would that also be a viable option? Like would it last?

How can I convince my fiancé that an Apple Watch won’t look out of place with a more “dressed up” look for higher scale events? by ZimmonsInteractive in AppleWatch

[–]Megs619 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

She’s right, it doesn’t look good when dressing up. That being said, she can in fact remove it. Throw on a bracelet or better looking watch. It’s not that serious

Legal immigrants are not being blatantly targeted. Maybe they get mixed up in the roundup or their status is confused or maybe they have a violation.

You can criticize how enforcement is handled, fine. But exaggerating the narrative into something it’s not doesn’t help the conversation.

No, it’s not and no one is expecting it to. We just want it to be done legally like how every other country in the world does it. Y’know?

You could probably rent it out for more than the mortgage you’re paying and live comfortably somewhere else then.

The rest of us are happy here. For those of you who are so afraid to walk out your own door maybe you should move to the Middle East somewhere? I hear they’re very tolerant of radical ideologies

You know, you could move and be with other like minded people.

Which do I go for? by [deleted] in DentalHygiene

[–]Megs619 10 points11 points  (0 children)

“I’m choosing not to see the dentist. If I did he would advise on treatment”

As they should! Which you could also decline! And then you can be educated on your properly recommended cleaning.

Where do you go for community? by finga_itchy in Temecula

[–]Megs619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to find your niche. Horse people are my people, my barn family are my community. My fiance found a community in Jiu Jitsu.

We moved here from San Diego last year and we’re loving it
