Does Changing or Not Changing the Clocks Affect Rider Mindset?
Does changing the clocks actually alter our mindset, focus, and frame of mind in the saddle? Or does keeping the clocks the same in autumn and spring alter our thinking?
In this episode, I look into the neuroscience of seasonal time shifts and how a 60-minute adjustment impacts rider reaction times, energy and mental clarity. Because horses live strictly by solar rhythms and herd routines, they instantly expose the artificial nature of human clock changes.
I explore how our internal biological systems handle the shift, examine real-world global clock experiments, and share practical yard strategies to keep you and your horse in sync.
