Support During Stress Awareness Month: The Equestrian Mental Health Booklet

"There is HOPE,
even when your brain tells you there isn’t."
April is Stress Awareness Month—a time to reflect on how stress impacts our lives and to seek healthier ways to manage it. As equestrians, we know the demands of this lifestyle—the long hours, financial pressures, and deep emotional connections to our horses—can often leave us feeling overwhelmed.
To support you, we want to remind you of The Equestrian Mental Health Booklet—a free, comprehensive resource filled with tools and stories to help you navigate the unique challenges of equestrian life.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Coping Strategies: Techniques like mindfulness and self-care plans to manage stress effectively.
- Real Stories: Inspiring journeys of equestrians who faced mental health challenges.
- Support Resources: A directory of organisations and helplines tailored for equestrians.

This Stress Awareness Month, take a moment to prioritise your mental health—it’s just as essential as caring for your horse. Whether for yourself or someone in your circle, this booklet is a reminder that you’re never alone.
Share this resource widely. Together, we can build a stronger, more supportive equestrian community.
“I can’t stress enough, that reaching out is the hardest and bravest thing someone can do.” -
