When Calm Feels Strange: Retraining Your Mind to Stop Worrying
On this episode of Over the Oxer Podcast, I dive into the endless loop of worry, anxiety, and chaotic thinking that can follow riders both in the saddle and in everyday life.
I'll explain why your mind might unconsciously prefer familiar patterns of stress over calm — and how this learned “worry equals safety” mindset can affect your nervous system, your riding, and your horse.
You’ll learn:
Why your brain prioritises familiarity over logic and how that fuels anxiety
How chronic worry can subtly influence your body, focus, and even your horse’s behaviour
Simple yet powerful exercises to retrain your nervous system so calm truly feels safe
How to bring this mindset into the saddle for more relaxed, confident riding
Whether you’re battling persistent “what if” thoughts or just curious about the mind-body connection in equestrian performance, this episode will help you understand and begin to shift the patterns that hold you back.
🎧 Take a few minutes to breathe, reset, and explore how calm can truly become your new default.
