Trusted Co-operation

Notes:

Rewards:
FOOD, SCRATCH, PRIDE, CONNECTION

After the food reward it´s essential that we reduce the thinking levels again so the animal realises that the reward was for a reason, the action.

I´s stunning how quickly animals understand the reason and it engages them into the learning process.
Without that ability to reduce their thinking levels, their mind will start increasing, and then the reason for the reward will be lost in the longing for more reward. While reducing the thinking levels engages the animals. natural cognitive skills. 
Combined with reward this creates a situation when the animal wants to learn.

Example with the horse, Red Testalion (Salt River Wild Horse): Food distraction - progression slow, not safe. Distruction is full of curage, and it includes still having fear.

Difference between courage and peace.

Trusted cooperation - creates at space where animals understands why they get the reward. And instead it builds the confidence in the trust.

We started with Creative Reaction to lower the thinking levels to start creating a trusted relationship.

What fealing are your creating while talking? The animals can feel the feeling. 
When two minds are peacful they are in a listening state. It´s very easy for each party to feel the feelings of an other as a communication.

Communication: Feeling it a main source of communication. Additional is the tonal voice, body language and words. Before all of these is how we feel. The words translate the feeling.

The quiet mind will understand the feeling behind the words even if the animal doesn´t understand English.

Every feeling being is seaking connection. You may think that they don´t but please don´t take this personally. It´s the overthinking that stops them from connecting.

The intuitive connection - this process helps us to really listen to animals.
The focus presence, which is made up of the technique Mindful Regard, engages us to become very aware of animals physical and emotional states.
The deep listening opens the communication quite naturally.
We call it Intuitive connection, but really it is becoming sensitive to each other feelings.

Teaching - instead of words like training
We are teaching trust and confidence which leads to a deep states of connection and cooperation.
