Pressure and release is a method often used by horse trainers, but can be used as an emotional parallel to help us explore and reflect on how we respond to pressures and ways to feel the release. Through horse-based experiences we develop better awareness of pressures, as well as the desired releases that can come with improved boundaries, letting go, adjusting expectations and releasing the need to control things outside of our direct influence.
