Morning Mantra:  "Mind: If you let go, you'll fall. Heart: If you let go, you'll hurt. Soul: If you let go, you're free." Your Mind is your thoughts. How you think is based on life experiences, conditioning, and external influences. Your Heart is your emotions. How you feel is created based on how you think about your experiences; how you felt when something happened, or anticipation of future ones. Your Soul is who you are without any external influence or thoughts about your past or future.  It is your essence. It is your consciousness. Mindfulness helps you become aware of your soul (who you truly are) and to step away from your automatic, habitual reactions to your experiences.  Mindfulness helps us get better at seeing the difference between what is actually happening, and the stories we tell ourselves about what is happening. Find ways to quiet your mind, and be free. #BeMindfulOfYourSoul #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: 'I'm not in competition with anyone, I want us all to be happy." A flower doesn't think about competing with the other flowers, it just blooms.  With each other blooming, they are even prettier than without. The sun doesn't compete with the moon, each shine when it's their time. The same can be said of people. You don't need to worry about what other people look like, just bloom as you are. You don't need to worry if your life isn't shining right now and someone else's is.  Just focus on YOUR life and it will shine when it's supposed to. If you are constantly competing with others you can become bitter. If you compete with yourself- to become a better version than you were yesterday- you WILL become better! Bitter or better...you decide. #BeAbleToBloomAsYou  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "If you can overthink the worst, why can't you overthink the best?" Because it's easy to think of worst case scenarios.  They are based on the past.  Best case scenarios are future based and many people are not used to feeling hopeful so they fall back on feelings that they understand- like fear. Let the worst case in. Don’t try to ignore it or push it away. Because what you resist, will persist. Acknowledge it, but then ask the only question that separates preparation from worry, “what action can I take?  Answer that, and the worst case starts working for you. Confronting the worst case scenario also zaps much of its anxiety-inducing power.   To the brain, survival is much more important than happiness, so the brain often conjures up worst-case scenarios. So it can be prepared. The trouble is, the brain regularly gets it wrong. So the next time you find yourself in this situation, recognize it, catch yourself, and try to replace that scenario with solutions that might result in best case scenarios.  If you’re going spend time worrying about the worst case scenario, it’s only fair to spend some time, considering the best case scenario, and also the most likely scenario. #BeAwareOfYourThinking #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “I don’t need to be fixed, I need to be seen.”  There is a tendency to try and fix people when they are hurting.  It triggers some kind of reaction in us, so we try to change it or them.  But, it’s really important to meet them where they are, not where we think they should be. Read that again. There is plenty of time for offering alternatives and a way out of their circumstances.  But until they ask for help, it’s best to just be there…..wherever they are.  More often than not, people are more likely to arrive at the next best place on their journey if we do this. Because that is where the healing begins.    They do not need, “Do this.”  “You should feel this.” “It’s not that bad.” “You’ll be fine.”  What they need is “I hear you.” “I see you.” “I honor your journey.” #BeWillingToMeetPeopleWhereTheyAre #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “The gap between what your soul loves and the amount of time you spend doing it, will be the size of your unhappiness.” An amazing thing happens when you get honest with yourself and start doing what you love, what makes you happy.  You stop wishing for the weekend. You stop waiting for a special event to celebrate. You begin to live in each moment and start to notice and feel joy for the simple things. You feel inspired, not tired. A veil is lifted, and a whole new perspective is born. Find what makes you excited, then do it. #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “You are not responsible for the versions of you that exist in other people’s mind.” Do your best. Be your best. Live your best life. And let go of the need for the approval from others.   Because even if you were perfect, people will still find fault. They will create a version of you that fits into their needs. Serves their ego.   Remember, the weight of their opinion is not your burden to carry. Put. It. Down. If you care about what other people think of you, you will be offended the rest of your life. You will be defending yourself for the rest of your life. You will not have the energy to create the life you want, to be the person you were meant to be. So let them think what they want- you and those that REALLY know you- know the truth. #BeYouAnyway #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippieBoutique #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.”  When everything seems to be going wrong, It is the perfect time to create your plan.  Because that is old energy clearing out, and new things are coming.  Don't sit and wish things were different- think about steps you can take to MAKE them change. Sometimes you can help clear the way by dealing with old business and ties that are holding you back from forward motion.  You'll need to untether yourself from past trauma, drama and pain. You can't dwell there and expect things to be different. It's important to take the time to focus your energy on building the new.  That is where your future lies. #BeAnEnergyChanger #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes #Inspire #Quotes #FeelGoodQuotes

Morning Mantra: "How pain changes you is up to you. You can become bitter, or you can become better." Projecting your pain onto others is easy. Transferring pain into purpose takes work. You must be willing to face your pain.  You must be brave enough to explore the darkness, which can be really scary so we avoid it. What if you... Turn your trauma into art. Turn your shadows into a friend. Turn the hurt of your past into experiences to learn from. Turn your failures into teachers of what not to do. Turn your hurt into healing and your pain into power. Don't let yourself become bitter from the pain, be better because of it. #BeWillingToFaceYourPain #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutiq

Morning Mantra: "You are right where you are supposed to be."   We are all guilty of getting wrapped up into "where we should be" and all that does is cause stress and anxiety.  Especially when there are so many reasons to not worry about it. Instead, stay here, stay present. Love THIS moment in your life. This day.  It's all you really ever have. Love THIS body. Look at it in amazement.  Love THIS season.  It is necessary. Love THIS job.  You have an income. Love yourself and your life as they ARE. Understand that everything has a purpose, a lesson, or a reason in your life. Stay engaged in the now. Love yourself now. Find joy now. Appreciate your life now. #BeHappyNow #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “Don’t let small minds convince you that your dreams are too big.” Dreams are like gifts; they cannot be realized unless you open them. These gifts were given to you for a reason. You can either open it and see what is in store for you, or you can let fear decide. At least let that choice be yours. Caution is good, but fear will create limits.  Your fear, or the fear instilled by someone else that cannot see the possibility in your dreams.  Every day you must decide to either stay where there is no risk, or to start creating the life you are dreaming of. #BeADreamChaser #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippieBoutique #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “This feeling is temporary.” Oftentimes we make choices based on how we feel in the moment. I bet you can think of a few times.  I know I can. This can lead to hurt feelings, troubled relationships, and even a more difficult life. Try to treat your feelings like visitors; understand that they come and go.  Acknowledge them, try and understand them, but do not let them move in and run your life. Learn to use your emotions (feelings) to think, but to not to let your emotions think for you. To do this you must recognize the emotional reaction you are having, and respond rather than react.  See yourself as the person having the feeling rather than being the feeling.  You are not angry, you are feeling angry.  This separates you and gives you control over the response. Developing emotional intelligence helps you to recognize emotions in yourself and in others, and to use this awareness to manage your thoughts and behavior accordingly. #BeAwareOfYourFeelings #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippieBoutique #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “I have decided that love wins.” Occasionally I have to remind myself that everything is not about me and my story. I have to remember that we ALL  have stories. We are ALL out here trying. We are ALL dealing with something.  And sometimes life is simply hard.  For me AND for others. So instead of staying wrapped up in my own bubble, I need to give grace. Smile more. Let things go more often. Live within kindness every. single. day. I’ve decided that living in the image of love means changing the focus off myself and caring deeply about others. #BeWillingToChangeFocus #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Within every woman is a wild woman." What does it mean to be a wild woman?  To me, being wild, is a woman of any age that feels free to fully express herself in every dimension of her life. It means you are free to unbridle your mind from conditioning and fear. Free to release your untamed spirit and let it soar. Being a wild women allows you to be yourself without asking permission. To express your truth. To wear what you want. To do what you want. To be who you want and be with who you want to be with. Find your wild woman, let her free. #BeWild #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "I honor myself when I need to rest." Sunday used to be known as a day of rest but in our culture where overwork is praised, a day of rest has disappeared. Admitting that you are worn out and need some time for yourself doesn't mean you are weak or selfish.  It means you are human.  Never feel ashamed to say you need space to rest, recharge and come back to yourself.  You need empty moments where you tolerate your circling thoughts and anxiety until they slow down and stop. To fully recharge you must put solutions out of your mind for now, and engage in activities that have nothing to do with your ego. Just for now, try to abandon your pressing future and embrace your imperfect present.  #BeWillingToRest #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippieBoutique #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned

Morning Mantra: “Be patient with  yourself.” You don’t just overcome things overnight. You don’t suddenly become OK. You don’t mature or grow in a minute. The reality is, the process is slow, and messy, and even ugly at times.  And it’s not linear, there will be twists and turns and detours. Sometimes it may seem to take you more steps back than you have taken forward.  At times, it may seem as if you don’t understand  yourself, you don’t know where you stand, where  you’re headed, or even who you’re trying to become.  Be patient with yourself, you will overcome, and you will grow, you will rise, and be more yourself than you’ve ever been. #BePatient #HorseHippie #MorningMantra  #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian  #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand  #HorseHippieBoutique
