It's Not Just About the Ribbons by Jane Savoie

Book review by Karyn "K.C." Cowdrey

A follow-up to Savoie's early work, That Winning Feeling!, in which she first introduces the equestrian to the powerful tool of sports psychology, It’s Not Just About the Ribbons is not your average horsemanship book. Instead, this book focuses on how to tap into the power of our minds to overcome obstacles in riding due to mental traps we impose on ourselves, such as insecurity, frustration, lack of empathy, impatience, tension, doubt, arrogance, moodiness, discouragement, distraction and pessimism.

By understanding how to overcome these obstacles, you can clearly define goals and map out a game plan to reach them.

If you want to gain personal enrichment as well as the full ability to tap into your equestrian potential, I highly recommend picking up a copy of It’s Not Just About the Ribbons.
