By Adrienne N. Neary

Coherent Horsemanship: Combining the Quantum and the Classical presents a unique approach to horsemanship that brings together energy awareness, mindfulness, classical horse training, and the deeper connection between horse and human.

Combining the physical principles of traditional horsemanship with practices involving consciousness, breathing, meditation, and energy awareness, Adrienne N. Neary offers horse owners an opportunity to explore a more harmonious and connected relationship with their horses.

About the Book

Coherent Horsemanship combines colorful illustrations and detailed instruction in basic Equine Energy work with the fundamental building blocks needed for the basic training of any horse.

Drawing upon Neary’s training and experience with world-renowned masters, including Dr. John Harvey Gray, associated with USUI Reiki, and Dr. HLM van Schaik, a Dutch Olympian, as well as her experiences with students and many horses, the book brings together different approaches to working with horses.

Rather than treating horse training and energy work as separate practices, Neary explores how the two can complement one another.

The result is an approach designed to encourage greater awareness, relaxation, communication, and harmony between horse and human.

Connecting the Quantum and the Classical

At the foundation of Coherent Horsemanship is the idea of combining two seemingly different aspects of working with horses.

The quantum, representing the non-physical aspects of awareness and energy, is brought together with the classical, representing the physical aspects of training, positioning, and riding.

By combining these approaches, Neary presents what she describes as a “coherent” and holistic approach to horsemanship that can be incorporated into virtually any discipline.

The practices described in the book encourage readers to become more aware of themselves as they work with their horses, recognizing that communication and connection involve more than physical movement alone.

Developing Awareness Through Practice

Readers are introduced to practices involving conscious breathing, meditation, and energy awareness—techniques intended to support relaxation and well-being.

The book also introduces an energy scanning and delivery technique, encouraging horse owners to become more attentive to the energetic aspects of their interactions with horses.

These practices are combined with physical positioning and an awareness of psychological and emotional positioning.

Through this combination, readers can explore how their own physical and mental state may influence their interactions with their horse.

Building a More Harmonious Training Relationship

Coherent Horsemanship also provides a progressive training routine and guidance toward a more informed riding position.

The approach encourages horse and rider to work together with greater awareness rather than focusing exclusively on physical commands or techniques.

By practicing the routines and instructions presented throughout the book, horse owners can explore ways to create a more relaxed and harmonious experience both on the ground and under saddle.

The goal is not simply to train a horse, but to develop a deeper understanding of the relationship between horse and human.

Deeper Connection With Your Horse

One of the central ideas of Coherent Horsemanship is that deeper connections can create a new sense of bonding and coherence between horse and human.

This connection can be explored in different settings:

• From the ground
• From a distance
• From the saddle

By developing awareness in each of these situations, readers are encouraged to explore new possibilities in their everyday interactions with their horses.

A Holistic Approach to Any Discipline

Whether you are beginning your journey with horses or already have experience in a particular discipline, Coherent Horsemanship offers a different way of looking at training and communication.

The book combines practical physical training concepts with non-physical practices to create a broader approach to horsemanship.

Rather than focusing exclusively on one method or discipline, Neary presents an approach that can be adapted to different experiences and relationships between horses and their owners.
