People and Their Horses
In their own words...
I HAD A BIG DRESSAGE SHOW COMING UP...
“I started working with Carolyn in connection with my Dressage riding.
I had a big Dressage show coming up and wanted her to work on both me and my horse.
We did 3 sessions over a three week period: one on me, one on my horse Nimbus, and the last one on both of us together as a team.
I found that the sessions helped tremendously! I was much calmer and so was Nimbus. He has a lot of anxiety at the shows, and it definitely helped him to be much more calm and focused.
I also felt the sessions greatly improved the connection between Nimbus and I.
At the show I had one of the best rides ever, and now almost 6 months after we did our first session with Carolyn, the riding at home has improved so much, and taken my riding to the next level.
Every time I leave a session with Carolyn I feel extremely relaxed, calm and almost like I have pushed a reset button. This work helps me in all aspects of my life: work, relationships and my Dressage riding. I Highly Recommend her!!"

I was very pleased and surprised...
“I was very pleased and surprised by Carolyn’s ability to holistically draw so many healing and affirming elements together. Carolyn’s technique combines Accunect, the breath, chakra work, BodyTalk, visualization and relaxation in such a profound way as to transform a physical and/or mental blockage into a flow of energy and positive movement. I was able to break my habit of forgetting my test pattern (during a show), and now I compete with a renewed self-confidence and enthusiasm. Carolyn is truly a gifted healer and a lovely person!”

I have known Carolyn for about 16 years...
“ I have known Carolyn for about 16 years. She always has impressed me with her many talents, her dedication, focus annd desire to strive for “betterness.”
Carolyn is now channeling her radiant energy through the Bodytalk System. She is an amazingly diversified person, and I personally find her sessions to be both accurate and effective.
With her professional experience and life long affection for animals, she is also becoming expert at utilizing BodyTalk for their benefit."

I have an older female show horse...
“ I have an older female show horse that has back legs and hind end problems. Recently, Tosca went through a major ligament and tendon surgery on her hind leg. Carolyn’s “BodyTalk” sessions helped me tremendously in understanding where I could be of most help to her rehab and exercise program. She helped to move through her body, a lot of “toxins” and “fear” that she had built up over the years. By her communication with Tosca, she was able to target, for me, Tosca’s areas of concern. This was helpful to me for possible additional veterinary treatment, and helped me to discover new areas of concern for her comfort and performance well being that I didn’t even know existed that she was carrying around with her. She was able to communicate to my horse at a level that was not only fascinating but very informative and helpful.
I found this method of high level of communication very informative and very healing. This in turn helps us all to help our animals better. Best of luck!”

Coming into the medals finals at Foxfield...
“ Coming into the medals finals at Foxfield for the first time ever was a very daunting experience for me. I did not have the years of experience of those that I was competing against to fall back upon, and it was really causing me some worry. I had major concerns about last minute jitters and my ability to focus in the moment.
Working with Carolyn helped me to channel my concerns and fears into a more productive and successful thought process. The energy work that we did together facilitated the organization of my thoughts and feelings into a cohesive and positive platform, allowing me to perform at a confident and consistent level throughout my finals. I felt in control of my emotions and confident in my abilities. With this inner sense of calm, I was better able to communicate with my horse, and consequently our rounds were very competitive. I came away from this endeavor and the medal finals with a personal best, and a beautiful ribbon for my display case.Thank you, Carolyn!"

He finally showed off his talents to win...
“ My name is Lisa Del Mundo (Pembleton), barn manager for LionHeart Ranch and USDF certified Instructor. My Arabian stallion, Jubilee WGR (aka Jubal) and I experienced a break through moment directly after having Carolyn Osborn do a session with us. Jubal is quite talented receiving scores to 75% in Training level, however our inconsistencies in the show ring due to loss of attention have kept us from displaying our best performances through to First level. We were headed to Region 2 Championships, with a show the week prior with another loss of attention throughout our test. Carolyn worked with both of us separately, then together and the result was phenomenal! The moment we started our warm up he was ultra in-tune and perfectly on the aids [responding to cues}. There were no corrections to be made, we felt as if we were of one mind and one body. The true test was if he could maintain this attention in the show ring! With the judge’s comment of “Soft through top line allows for correct ground cover- Well done!” He finally showed off his talents to win all three large classes under two separate judges over two days scoring 68% and 68.8%, his best scores to date for First level! Thank you so much Carolyn for bringing our energies in sync and creating positive energy for our partnership!!! ~ Sincerely and with much gratitude."
