Problem: Article: Guide your horse next to a mounting block. From the block, push down and lean into the saddle with your hands, allowing it to feel your weight. You may need to try this multiple times so the horse is used to having weight in the stirrups without moving away. Mount your horse and sit calmly in the saddle for a few minutes before dismounting. Knowing how to mount a horse properly will help you as a rider, and help your horse get used to the sensation. Your horse will get used to the motion of being mounted and dismounted. It will also get comfortable holding the weight of a rider. Remain in the saddle in short periods of time and don't move. This will build their strength and prevent injury to joints or muscles. When you're in the saddle, gently squeeze your horse with your legs to begin walking. If it doesn't begin walking, you can gently tap it with your heels. Low-impact, low-speed exercise done in sessions of 30 minutes to 1 hour are best for your horse's training and health. Your horse is ready for walking if it does not flinch or resist when being saddled or mounted.
Summary: Use a mounting block to climb in the saddle. Mount and dismount from the saddle in 10-minute intervals. Begin walking your horse while in the saddle.

Problem: Article: The TMJ works like a hinge, but also uses a sliding motion. The joint also has cartilage, including a small disc of cartilage that acts as a sort of shock absorber. This disc can become damaged by arthritis, injury, or infection, or the disc can be out of alignment, causing pain. TMJ pain can also be associated with a clicking sound when you chew or talk, or there may be a sensation of grinding. Some people with TMJ have other conditions, such as chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic headache, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, bladder inflammation, irritable bowel syndrome, low back pain, sleep disorders, and painful sexual intercourse in women. It is not clear that TMJ and these other disorders are necessarily connected. TMJ occurs in both men and women, but women tend to have more severe pain and limitation of movement than men. The primary symptom of TMJ is pain in the joint and in the muscles of the jaw. Other symptoms include: Pain in the neck and in the shoulders Chronic headaches Stiffness in the jaw muscles Limitations in jaw movement Locking of the jaw Pain or pressure in the ear Ringing in the ears Painful clicking, popping, or grating in the jaw joint when the mouth is opening or closing A bite that feels off or is misaligned If you have any of these symptoms, it is recommended that you see a medical doctor as well as a pain specialist for treatment. Some dentists specialize in TMJ disorders as well. You should be certain that other potential causes of TMJ pain are excluded first. These causes include sinus or ear infections, dental problems including tooth abscesses, various forms of chronic headache, nerve-related facial pain, bone disease, and tumors.
Summary: Learn the causes of TMJ pain. Identify the symptoms of TMJ. See your doctor.

Problem: Article: Weatherproofing products with beeswax provide a good seal against the weather. Apply the product to the shoe with a clean cloth or brush, and rub it in using small circles. Wipe off any excess, and let your shoes dry. Apply these products about once a season. Some products come with an applicator that you can use to apply the beeswax product to the shoe. Melt plain beeswax in a wax warmer, and apply it to the boot with a brush. It will leave a thick, ugly layer because it dries quickly, but you'll use the heat gun or blow dryer to melt the layer again. Use a heat gun or blow dryer to melt the wax on the boot, and rub it in with the brush. Beeswax was a common waterproofing material before modern waterproofing pastes were created. Apply wax about once a season. Spray-on products don't leave as thick a layer as beeswax products, so choose them for a prettier finish. Hold the spray-on polish about 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20cm) away from the shoe. Spray the product in a steady, even layer. Let the product dry before you wear the shoes. These products don't waterproof as well or last as long as beeswax products so you'll need to reapply them several times throughout the season. If you're worried about an expensive pair of leather shoes, then your best bet is to put galoshes on over your shoes, particularly if you live in a rainy climate where you're required to walk a lot. You'll be able to avoid the majority of the moisture and the salt. Galoshes come in many shapes and styles so you can find a pair that fits your fashion sense and look.
Summary:
Use a beeswax product to weatherproof your shoes thoroughly. Use plain beeswax for a cheap option. Try a spray-on product to weatherproof with a prettier finish. Put galoshes on to protect your leather shoes in wet weather.
