Your approach is perfect. Something most people don't do or mention. I, myself, haven't ever really done this method... as far as getting their mind settled first and foremost.
Great video!! Thank you.

[@sianwallis2695]

Can you start this with an 8mth old ? Plz

[@glxpassat]

Of course. The earlier the better. As far as ground work only - for such a young horse.

You have it the wrong way around. The neural stress triggers the endocrine response, not the adrenaline and cortisol stimulating the stress. The hormones are a response to the active nervous system, not the hormones driving the nervous system. Secondly, the horse is paying attention to you (notice she doesn't pull away or run your down - she knows exactly where you are and where the feel of the rope is). But you are not her primary thought and you are less consequential than her surrounds. She has boundaries and focus, just not the same as you want. Thirdly, where is the evidence that licking and chewing stimulates secretion of dopamine? Licking and chewing can be a sign of stress or relaxation or frustration or anticipation etc - it depends on context. If you are waiting for a dopamine response you are way too late. The behaviour comes before the endocrine response. I can't see where the science is in this video. There's lots of speculation about hormones and behaviour, but no science.

Ross Jacobs A book by Dr Stephen Peters Evidence Based Horsemanship...

[@RossJacobs]

@@OutlawRides I have read Stephen Peters book and found it full of inaccuracies and lacking in credible facts. It seems his book is becoming the "go to" for horse people claiming scientific knowledge about horse behaviour (several other trainers have been doing the same in clinics and videos). I can't recommend it as a source of good scientific understanding of behaviour. You should study proper physiological texts rather than one person's misinterpretation. I suggest you stop relying on pop science books. This is how misinformation is spread as fact and does so much damage.

Ross Jacobs perhaps you can take this up with Dr Peters...I trust his research...I do t know you from any other dude on UA-cam. Perhaps you can make us a video explains your points...

[@RossJacobs]

@@OutlawRides I agree, you should not trust what I say. Assume everything you are told is wrong until you are satisfied it is not. As a PhD in physiology and 15 years in medical research (which heavily involved how hormones are stimulated, secreted and work) I am confident in my views on this subject. But you should assume me and Peters etc are wrong until you do enough research to be satisfied where the facts lie. Using Peter's book as your primary source is insufficient in my opinion. If you are going to call your site and claim your work is "science based", you should know the science - all the science - and not just use one source or viewpoint.
