When you give commands, use clear words with fewer than three syllables. Horses don't speak English, so when you use longer, more complicated words, that will only confuse them. Short simple words like "Trot" or "Whoa" are easier to remember, and more recognizable to a horse's ears. Shorter commands will also help you to be consistent when speaking. When you speak and give commands, make sure you repeat yourself regularly. Otherwise the horse will get confused over what you are saying and what you want him to do. Even a small change like adding the horse's name to the command changes what the horse hears. "Whoa" and "Whoa, Silver" are different things to the horse's ears, so resist the temptation to address your horse by his name when giving a command. Horses are visual animals, and communicate much more through body language than verbalizing. By sending the right signals while speaking, you can get your horse to better listen to you when you speak. Active body language is more assertive, and good to do when you are giving commands. Square your shoulders to the horse, and look him directly in the eye. If you want to further emphasize the need to do something, lean forward toward the horse, and have a stern look on your face. This is a more assertive stance, which lets the horse know he needs to move his feet. When you want the horse to relax, keep your body language more passive. Don't square your shoulders or look him in the eye. Instead, relax your shoulders and maybe even cock one of your legs. This is a more relaxed stance for you, and lets your horse know he can relax when you tell him to calm down. Keep your voice calm and firm, and use it to reinforce your body language. This kind of language is more for you, to help remind yourself to remain calm and in control when talking to your horse. Make sure you speak normally around your horses, and avoid only whispering. The only thing that will happen is that your regular voice, or any other voice, will startle the horse and he will react with fear. You want your horse to associate your voice with giving commands. If you talk constantly to and around your horse, he won't learn to associate your voice with anything in particular, and will start to tune you out. Make sure to limit your communication to necessary points, and make sure your horse follows those commands. When you give your horse a command, he may not follow through right away. Rather than punishing him for not immediately responding, wait a few seconds to see if he will follow. If he doesn't, give the command again with more force in your voice, and perhaps a gentle push or squeeze.

Q: When you play beach volleyballeven competitivelythe standard uniform is a bathing suit. While regulations vary from league to league, generally women will wear one or two piece bathing suits while men will wear swimming trunks. Teams should have at least two colors for their uniforms. Bikinis are the most common type of uniform for women, although you can usually wear a one-piece suit if you choose. If you don't want to wear bikini bottoms, you can also opt for swim shorts or spandex shorts. Not all leagues require men to wear shirts. If you are playing competitively, check with the regulations of your local league. Even if you are not required to wear a shirt, you may want to wear at least a tank top to prevent sunburn. Players do not typically wear shoes for beach volleyball. On warm, sunny days, the sand can be extremely hot, so you may opt for a pair of socks. Generally, however, you will be playing barefoot. It may not be clothing, but it is just as important to put on as you will be spending a long time out in the sun. Take an one-ounce dollop of sunscreen, and rub it all over your body. Don't forget your ears, neck, or face. While not required, many beach volleyball leagues encourage players to wear sunglasses and a hat. These will help protect you against the sun. Make sure your sunglasses fit snuggly on your face. You do not want them to fall off as you play.
A: Put on your bathing suit. Go barefoot. Apply sunscreen. Bring sunglasses and a hat.

Article: You'll need to make an extra effort to prove your trustworthiness to your partner. Communicate your plans and respond to your partner's requests for information and reassurance. Note, however, that your past history of cheating does not completely eliminate your right to privacy. Be mindful of your partner's need for information, but do not feel compelled to provide a full list of your cell phone and social media passwords or to account for your whereabouts at all times. Such practices perpetuate mistrust rather than allowing you to rebuild your shattered relationship. Do not expect forgiveness -- least of all on your schedule. Your partner will need to learn he or she has reason to trust you. Take a "time out" if you find that emotions are running high. Your partner may need some physical or emotional space to process his or her feelings. Politely leave the room, go for a walk, or give your partner the freedom to distance him or herself for a period of time. Consider scheduling specific windows of time to process difficult feelings. You might set an egg timer for half an hour, for example, and use that limited span of time for discussion. Doing so provides structure and predictability; you can both focus upon the subject at hand without having the conversation degenerate into "venting" or other unproductive behavior. Forgiving yourself does not mean you're off the hook for the consequences of your behavior, nor does it exempt you from the hard work of taking steps to change your behavior. Rather, forgiving yourself frees up your mental and emotional energy to move forward. You can then work on healing your relationship and changing your habits. Each day is a new day. When you wake up each morning, remind yourself of your decision to move forward and focus on repairing your damaged relationship. If you find rituals helpful, consider taking a symbolic step such as (carefully) burning or shredding a paper labeled "cheating." Remind yourself of this action when you're tempted to dwell upon your past behavior. You've burned your bridges, literally or metaphorically, and have committed to move forward. If you find yourself wallowing in regret, brainstorm a productive action you can undertake instead. You might consider sending your partner a loving text, performing a chore around the house, or working on a new hobby that helps you constructively redirect your behavior.
