"In her new book Brain Training for Riders , professional counselor, psychotherapist, and riding instructor Andrea Monsarrat Waldo helps readers get past the survival-focused 'lizard brain'" -- USDF Connection "If you're a sports psychology newbie, I think this is a great first read...the book gives a good framework of common problems. I think a lot of the techniques Waldo outlines are useful in the real world too." -- Everything Eventing "My favorite equestrian-specific mindset book has been Brain Training for Riders . I think it breaks things down in a way that's easy to understand, and it gives you tips for how to handle pressure, emotions, and fear. We all know just how mental this sport can be, and this book is really great at helping us understand why we feel the way we do, and how to change it, or how to move past disappointment or handle embarrassment. I have said before that IMO the mental side of riding is something we don't talk about nearly enough, but it's so incredibly crucial to our success and well-being. Every rider needs to own this book, and every trainer needs to read it." -- the900dollarfacebookpony.com "Advanced Level eventer and psychotherapist Andrea Waldo tells us why we need to screw up (a lot!) if we want to be better riders." - EventingNation.com "Insightful... an engaging and empowering volume that demonstrates that it really IS all in your head." -- Catskill Horse "Andrea Waldo knows what it takes to overcome challenges that would flatten most people. The strategies in this book worked for her--we'd do well to listen."-- Denny Emerson , USEA Hall-of-Fame Inductee "Once you understand how your brain's fear response operates and why it does what it does, you can focus on how to prevent that fear from getting so big that it hijacks your ride." -- OntheHorse.com "This well written and easy to read book is highly recommended for any rider." -- Horse & Pony Magazine (UK), "In her new book Brain Training for Riders, professional counselor, psychotherapist, and riding instructor Andrea Monsarrat Waldo helps readers get past the survival-focused 'lizard brain." --USDF Connection "If you're a sports psychology newbie, I think this is a great first read... book gives a good framework of common problems.

Synopsis
Did you know there is an area of your brain known as the "Lizard Brain" that thinks only about the immediate moment and your means of survival? Yes, in certain circumstances, your "Rational Brain" can effectively "shut down" and you are at the mercy of a reptile ... dry-mouthed, sweating, queasy, unable to think clearly--even though you know better. When does the Lizard Brain run the show? It can happen in any number of unfamiliar, uncomfortable, challenging, or "stressful" riding situations. But here's the thing: with the right kind of training, you can learn to manage the reptile within, which leads to greater confidence with horses, better riding performance, and ultimately, happiness at the barn, at shows, and everywhere in between. Andrea Monsarrat Waldo teaches you how to: handle uncomfortable emotions, such as fear, anger, anxiety, and embarrassment; hone your mental game and focus your riding time to get the most out of your hours in the saddle; care for your emotional injuries the same way you would care for an injured horse; and produce a state of "Focused Calm" and tap into the skills you have (whether you know it or not!) to ensure an outstanding ride., Did you know there is an area of your brain known as the "Lizard Brain" that thinks only about the immediate moment and your means of survival?
