Strive to stay relaxed before and during the ride. This can be achieved by breathing slowly and deeply to maintain a steady heartbeat. You might also try to keep a positive attitude in general, which could include soothing the horse by talking or singing softly to it before riding. Petting a horse before riding as well as during the ride can help keep both horse and rider calm. Petting during the ride has the added bonus of helping keep the rider's hands steady, allowing for greater control of the horse. This control can help calm the animal more quickly in the event of spooking. A good place to pet the horse is on its withers, which is at the tip of the shoulders where the neck and back meet. Simply stroke the fur softly to pet. You can also apply soft pressure with your fingertips or scratch lightly with fingernails. One way to help keep both the horse and rider calm during the ridethereby minimizing spookingis to use an application that sets a riding tempo. Acting like a metronome for the ride, the application will set a tempo for each gait, which the rider can speed up or slow down. The rider simply activates the application on a smartphone or mobile device and places it in their pocket during the ride with the volume up loud enough for the horse to hear it. Another way to use this application is to have a friend operate the tempo adjustments with the application hooked into a riding arena's public address system. This is a good way to ensure the horse can hear the beat. You may be startled by your horse's behavior if it gets spooked, but the horse will only experience greater stress if you show stress yourself. This is because your stress indicates to the horse that there is a legitimate threat, even though it is his or her stress to which you may be reacting. In this case, the horse can be more difficult to calm, so you really should remain calm if your horse gets spooked so as to minimize the horse's stress.

One-sentence summary -- Maintain a relaxed state of mind and body. Pet the horse before and while riding. Use a tempo application. Do not show fear or stress.

Problem: Article: No one plans or expects to have a mental health crisis when they are traveling. However, studies suggest that about 10% of travelers with mental illness experience a psychiatric problem while on their trip. You can handle an emergency much more effectively if you already have a crisis plan in place just in case. Ask your mental health professional to help you create your plan. You might ask them, "What should I consider including in my crisis plan?" Include things like emergency numbers to your primary mental health provider, primary pharmacist, pharmacist in your destination area, a crisis center and mental health provider there. Include insurance information, a list of your medications, and any other important information. It can be frustrating, scary, and possibly detrimental to be in a mental health crisis and not know where to get help. Before you leave for your trip, take some time to find out about emergency mental health services in the area that you're traveling to. This way you'll know where to turn for help if you should need it. In the U.S., you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 or Safe Alternatives at 1-800-366-8288. The International Association for Suicide Prevention at http://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/ provides a great list of crisis services worldwide. Knowing that you have someone whom you can alert if there's a problem and will be checking in on you can help you manage a mental health emergency when you're traveling. This might be your travel companion, a person you trust in the destination location, or someone at home. Ask someone close to you at home to check on you every so often. You might ask your friend, "Could you call me every few days just to check in and make sure everything's going well?" Make sure your emergency contact has up-to-date information regarding how to get in contact with you, where you're staying, insurance information, medications, etc.
Summary:
Create a crisis plan. Research crisis support in that area. Have an emergency contact.
