Your Brain is Only Guessing it'll be Scary
About this episode
This episode explores how the brain predicts experiences based on past events and offers strategies to improve performance in horse riding.
Ever felt like you are riding the 'ghost' of a past bad experience rather than the horse underneath you today? In this episode of Over the Oxer we are diving into the neuroscience of performance. It turns out your brain does not actually wait for sensory data to tell it what is happening in the saddle. Instead, it spends every millisecond predicting what is about to happen based on your past experiences, creating your reality out of guesswork. Join Tracey as she breaks down why your brain creates the scary movie before you even reach the spooky corner, how this accidental loop causes your horse to feed off your tension and the exact three-step process you can use to interrupt the guesswork, rewrite the script and override your brain autopilot. It is time to stop reacting to the past and start riding the horse you actually have in the moment you're actually riding. 👉 Contact me Info@traceycolenlp.com www.traceycolenlp.com 👉Let's be social! www.facebook.com/traceycolenlp.com www.instagram.com/traceycolenlp.com 🧠Next NLP Practitioner and NLP Coach Training: BRAND NEW FOR 2026 - HYBRID SELF-PACED AND ZOOM TRAINING.
