Horse Hippie’s Morning Mantras

Morning Mantra: "The right path will feel like relief not resistance."The best way to find out whether you're on the right path? Is to stop looking at the path and feel it instead.  Does it feel good? Does it feel like it aligns with your goal? Your values? Your best self?This doesn't mean that the right path is always easy. It means that the right path is the one you are willing to keep walking even when things get difficult.  It means you feel good about moving forward and you could care less about looking back.Only you know which is the right path. Because it's the one that ignites your passion. It fits your idea of happiness.  It doesn't question your self-worth or ask you to compromise who you are.Once you figured out what brings you joy, your purpose, your passion, you don't have to worry about finding the right path because basically any path will take you there.Just remember, if you find a path of no obstacles, it probably won't lead you anywhere. Set backs and detours ask you to decide how dedicated you are to continuing the journey.#BeOnYourPath

Morning Mantra: "Love gently, kindly, fiercely, bravely as an expression of your light and spirit."The people who change our lives are the ones who lead with love. The ones who listen. Who try not to judge. They see the good in us even when we feel bad about ourselves. Loving in the form of listening, empathizing, tolerance, non judging and physical expressions is engaging the best of ourselves in the form of connecting with another person.  Each expression of love has ripple affects on people and each act or word of love subtly changes you as well.  Never regret the energy expended toward another soul. Give a little love as often as you can. It matters. It really does.#BeLoving #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Today I will take a moment to simply be."You don't always have to be moving forward. Sometimes you just need to float for awhile to catch your breath and enjoy all the beautiful things you miss when you are rushing through life.S...l...o...w..... it all down.  Pause from your full calendar and task list. Remind yourself that THIS is life, right here, right now.Pause to remind yourself that life is precious and fragile and should be lived in love. To remind yourself that THIS moment is all you really have and wherever you find yourself is where you are supposed to be.Most humans have lost the wisdom of genuinely resting and relaxing. We worry too much. We don't allow our bodies to heal, and we don't allow our minds to slow down.Of course, none of this really helps you live a better life- the one you are chasing so aggressively.  So, the very least we can do is take a moment to remember to simply be.  Even if you have to set a timer or write it on your calendar- practice the pause.#BeHereNowMomentsMatter #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Learning how to take nothing personally will change your life."Most of what people do has nothing to do with you. Let their mood be theirs. Let their actions be theirs.Let your life be yours. That's how you take your power back.Learning this is freedom. When you stop taking everything personally, you will claim your energy, your peace, and your power. What belongs to others no longer gets to live in you.This has really helped me in dealing with one of my children. I know that they are unhappy in their life and they don't treat me like they should because of it. But instead of taking it personally, I realize their anger is coming from a personal space and has nothing to do with what I have or haven't done. That separates me from their anger.I used to try and own their unhappiness and fix their life.  Now I love and support them, but many times from afar. I remind myself that it is their journey to walk, and they can't step on me in the process.Take your power back- it has nothing to do with you.#BeFreeFromTakingThingsPersonally #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "You are not stuck where you are unless you decide to be."You are not stuck, you are just committed to certain patterns of behavior because they helped you in the past. Now those behaviors have become more harmful than helpful. The reason why you can't move forward is because you keep applying an old formula to a new level in your life. Change the formula to get a different result.Brain dump everything to be done and divide them into columns of what you want to do, need to do, can do now and would like to do later. Start where you are and with the resources you have.Don't wait until everything feels right. When you focus on your purpose, your why, your mission, and the outcome you want to experience, you will become unstuck.#BeCommitedToNewPatterns #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique #madebywomenforwomen #wherebohomeetsequestrian #boho #bohostyle #bohemianstyle #hippie #hippiestyle #hippievibes #hippiegirl #horsehippie #equestrian #equestrianstyle #horsegirl #horselover #horsesofinstagramQuote: Dr Wayne Dyer

Morning Mantra: "Happiness is not the absence of problems, it's the ability to deal with them."Life is hard. There is always going to be something that you have to "deal" with.Accepting this fact, and then employing ways to help yourself, is the key to a happy life.Don't be to ashamed to build a tribe of support around you.Don't be embarrassed to try counseling.Don't let fear stop you from trying meditation, yoga, and mindfulness exercises.Use whatever you can to help you navigate the tough times.Pride and ego have no place in your life, they only make you feel bad for having a less-than-perfect life.  Grace and acceptance are your friends. They help you understand that EVERYONE'S life has it's struggles and we ALL deserve compassion and support.You can do hard things.  You got this.#BeOpenToHelp #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Actions speak louder than words."We can all TALK a good game but what are you actually DOING?  I can tell you I'm going to have a peaceful day then get in my car and scream at every driver that doesn't drive the way I think they should.  How peaceful is that?You can tell your kids you love them but if you ignore them, criticize them or create a home filled with tension, how is that love?As Carl Jung said, "You are what you do, not what you say you'll do"  in an attempt to illustrate that your words don't define you, your thoughts don't either, only your actions do.  Because you can think and say all kinds of things but never do them.The best way to develop the actions that reflet your real character is to clarify who you want to become by defining your values and what you stand for. Then align your actions with them.  Don't let other people tell you how to act or what to do, especially if it doesn't align with YOUR character.#BeADoerNotASayer #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique #madebywomenforwomen #wherebohomeetsequestrian #boho #bohostyle #bohemianstyle #hippie #hippiestyle #hippievibes #hippiegirl #horsehippie #equestrian #equestrianstyle #horsegirl #horselover #horsesofinstagram

Morning Mantra: "Be soft for the sake of every hard heart." It's not your imagination, the world and many of the people in it have hardened. Maybe it's because of all the chaos of late.  Maybe it's because of all the pain and suffering we are aware of now- 24 hours a day- thanks to TV and social media.Whatever the reason, it is more important than ever, that YOU stay soft.  That your energy reflects love and compassion.Try not to let what you cannot do build a layer of hardness in you.  Do what you can instead, even if it's just staying soft and kind.Stay rooted in love.  Stay rooted in kindness. Stay rooted in peace.#BeSoftInAHardWorld #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique #madebywomenforwomen #wherebohomeetsequestrian #boho #bohostyle #bohemianstyle #hippie #hippiestyle #hippievibes #hippiegirl #horsehippie #equestrian #equestrianstyle #horsegirl #horselover #horsesofinstagram

Morning Mantra: "Today will be a peaceful day."Peace is not far away.It is one breath away.One pause away.One kinder choice away.One step away from anger.One step toward compassion.One step without the weight of resentment.One step in the present moment.One step in patience.One step with understanding.Sometimes, the quietest steps echo the farthest.#BeAnchoredinPeace #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutiqueAdapted from Walk for Peace post.

Morning Mantra: "Remove one unhealthy habit instead of adding another healthy one."You only have so much time in your day.  If you keep adding things to do you are more likely to NOT do some of them.  So why not start your health/healing journey by removing a bad habit.For example, if you start walking but still smoke the two will cancel each other out.  It's better to stop smoking than to add the walking.  Same for if you have too much stress and can't manage it.  Try eliminating some of the stressors before you add on mediation or another thing "to do" to help you manage your stress. Expanding your to do list will only add more stress.If you can, make a list with two columns; one for "things that are unhealthy for me" and one with "what I am doing that is good for my physical and mental health".Now work on removing things from the unhealthy column BEFORE adding anything to the other. Consistency is the key to forming a new habit.  If you overload your day- even when you are trying to do better- the chance of you being able to sustain it diminishes.#BeHealthy #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "It's better to walk alone than with a crowd going in the wrong direction."Don't join an easy crowd; you won't grow. Go where the expectations and demands on yourself are higher.The one that follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. Those who walk alone are likely to find themselves in places where they can create, heal, learn and become the highest version of themselves.It can be scary to venture out there on your own, but if you do you will find your people.  Those that will support you in your quest, honor your journey and root for you alone the way.Remember- when you're in your own lane there is no traffic.#BeWillingToGoYourownWay #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Save your emotions for someone who values and understands your heart."Find someone who is sure of you. So sure that he or she will stay while you find your way into being the best version of yourself. They choose love over imperfection and growth over over past mistakes. They will love you, especially on your hardest days.Real love means having a partner who supports your growth and stands by you through every season. Choose someone who sees your potential even on your difficult days.Don't settle for less.#BePickyAboutLove #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "I love and show up As I Am." Our level of belonging can only be as deep as our level of self acceptance, because true belonging can only happen when we present our authentic, imperfect self to the world.When we judge ourselves and others we cannot accept them as they are.To understand this go into a forest and look at the trees.  Some are tall, some are thick, some are pines and some are not. But never do you look at a tree and judge it for it's differences. No, you look at the little, crooked one and see it didn't get enough light, and you accept it as. it. is.Look at yourself and others the same way.You are a product of all of your experiences, the light you received- or didn't.  If you are doing the best as you can, with what you have...come as you are. #BeWillingToShowUpAsYOU  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutiqueQuote: adapted from Bree Brown

Morning Mantra: “Until you know your options you will continue to feel stuck.” When you only see one possible path forward, you limit your chance of success. Rather than complaining about the situation, or worrying about possible failure, give yourself more options.Take inventory and ask yourself what options do you currently have? Then consider, what new options could you develop? Are there other ways to get to your goal?  Ask your friends, your family or a trusted mentor to help you find more ways.Options give you independence, they give you the power of choice. Options provide you with multiple ways to respond to difficulty or the feeling of not knowing. When you have more options, you have more confidence, and more control over the outcome. Discovering and developing new options takes work, but this effort increases the leverage you have over your circumstances and choices.#BeLookingForOptions #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "How your life feels is more important than how it looks."You know it when it feels right. It just fits.  With who you really are.Trying to appear a certain way to impress others, or because you think you need to, will never feel right.Even if you manage for it to look perfect, if you don't feel loved, honored, valued, and heard, you will not be able to sustain it.You have to FEEL it to believe it.#BeAbleToFeelGoodAboutYourLife #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “Everyone has inside them a piece of good news.”  If we depend on the printed headline for our view of the world it can be quite upsetting and discouraging.  There is a saying in the media, “If it bleeds it leads.” And when you read the news it's easy to see that they believe this.I'd rather not let them tell me how to view the world, how people are treating each other, and what the future of humanity is.  Today I will write my own headlines from my own life:Husband cherishes wife.Mother weeps at the birth of her beautiful child.Teenager teaches younger brother to play the guitar.Entire community cleans up playground.96 year old gets taken care of and adored by daughter.Dog reunited with owners.Find the good news and let it fill your headlines. Let your worries about the state of our world float away on the promise that life is good, people are amazing, and everything will be okay.Quote: Anne Frank#Be-lieveInTheGoodnessOfLife  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Be more committed to your goals than you are to your excuses." If you really want something, you will make it happen instead of making excuses for why it won't.  It all starts with your mindset.  This is big for me. If I don't set my mind to it, I will quit.You have to be ready to do the hard work that it takes. You might start the process but you won't finish unless you are truly committed.We quit because we THINK it's easier. But living with the knowledge that we quit can be just as hard.We quit because we get fixated on having it be done, or reached in a certain way.  Guess what, you can commit to your goal AND be flexible about your journey.It's a focus, it's a dedication, it's not giving up if you get off track.  It's not making excuses for why you THINK you can't do it.  Change your mindset, change your life.#BeCommittedToYourGoalsNotYourExcuses #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "I am exactly where I am meant to be in life and I am going in the right direction." The Universe is always giving you experiences and situations that you need to grow, to heal, and to evolve. Everything about you is connected.Your gifts.Your circumstances.Your purpose.Your imperfections.Your journey.Your destiny.Your relationships.Your energy.It's molding you.To realize that everything is connected is to both accept our insignificance and to understand our importance.#BeAwareOfYourConnection #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it.” You are not stuck. You have choices. You can choose to focus on the suffering and you will feel sad and weighed down. Or you can look for the stories of people that have overcome their circumstances.You can rise up from anything. You can completely re-create yourself. You can think new thoughts. You can learn something new.You can create new habits.You can be inspired and then be an inspiration.All that matters is that you decide to move forward, and remember the strength you have.  Remember the 100s of times you already overcame what you thought was holding you back.#BeWillingToStartAgain #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "I will be honest with myself"  Doing what's needed is not easy because facing what's wrong takes honesty. Facing the hurt.Facing the truth.Facing the disappointment.Facing the fear.Facing the changes needed.All of these require you to dig deep, do the work, and be honest with yourself.Face your shadows and set yourself free. You have the key.#BeWillingToDoTheWork #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #horsehippieboutique

Morning Mantra: “The only thing permanent is change.”Nothing is permanent.Not your feelings, not your pain, not your opinions, not your challenges, not your relationships, not the state of the world,not your financial situation,not your beliefs about yourself.Everything changes. Allow yourself to remember this when you get overwhelmed, so you have hope for a better day.  Recognize this when things are good, so you won't forget to appreciate it while it lasts.#BeAwareOfTheTemporayNatureOfLife #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalquotes

Morning Mantra: "Anger and resentment are like embers held in the hand; they also burn the one who holds them."Maybe you think that it's OK to hold onto resentment when life feels unfair. Or maybe like a vine growing slowly over time, these negative reactions become a habit that you don't even realize you are doing.There can be a flickering comfort in anger or resentment. It can feel like a shield, a way to stay in control when things feel chaotic. But that warmth is fleeting. Before you know it, you are carrying a heavy burden in your mind. You'll find yourself at odds with everything, including traffic, the weather, your circumstances, or maybe even the reflection in the mirror. When your heart is full of these heavy shadows, the light of peace and love cannot find a place to rest.Anger and hatred can gently fade your joy and quiet your laughter. But if you realize this, a beautiful shift happens. You will see that you have a choice. You can choose the path of letting go.It begins by noticing these feelings as they arise and greeting them mindfully, then choosing peace and letting them go. You can choose to be kind to yourself and let go of this heavy darkness, and you will unlearn these old ways of reacting. And take control over your responses to life.#BeMindfullyPeaceful #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "When you let things slide to 'keep the peace' around you, make sure you are not ignoring the peace within you." Keeping the peace does not mean keeping secrets, walking on eggshells,pretending things are healthy when they are not, ignoring their poor choices,tip toeing around the truth, or making yourself small. Agreeing to things just to keep the peace is actually a trauma response. When you do this you are disrespecting YOUR inner peace, your boundaries, your needs.Inner peace is not attained by ignoring problems, but by solving them.  Don't sacrifice your peace to keep the peace with others.#BeAtPeaceWithYourself #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "You are the creator of your own life.  You are responsible for what you choose to do with it." You cannot shortcut your life. The value of your life depends on you. You cannot take it from someone else, or borrow it, or inherit it, or marry it, or just get lucky and happen upon it. You must produce it.The good news is that each day is full of incredible opportunity. Each day you have the opportunity to move yourself in the direction of your dreams, by your own effort, by your own commitment, by your own focus, by jumping into the adventure of life and getting your hands dirty.Life must be lived, and the challenges must be met, by your own strength, discipline and character.#BeACreatorOfAGoodLife #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Peace is not a destination. Peace is the way." If any of you have seen the videos of the Monks on their 2,300 mile Walk For Peace, then you understand this concept.  It is so inspiring to see them tackle weather extremes, traffic, health setbacks and the hours and hours of walking, with mindful peace.If they teach us anything it is that we should live each day in peace.  We do this by letting go of the emotions from the ego.  Fear, blame, resentment, hostility, hatred and guilt.  There can be no inner peace if we hold onto these.Replace them with kindness, love, and forgiveness. Look past the things that usually annoy you. Marvel at the beauty of the world in which you live. Accept things as they are instead of always pushing, pulling, and forcing.  It accomplishes nothing. Make a conscious effort to reach your goals in a measured and determined way.Use your judgment not as a weapon for putting others down, but as a tool for building your own character.Decide to live this day in peace. See how powerful that can be.{{To see the Monks during their finals days of their journey search FB for Walk for Peace }}#BeAtPeace  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "People will love you. People will dislike you. And none of it will have anything to do with you."People think, react, behave, and care from their level of consciousness. That's all they can do.  Their personal story and experiences shape they way they do all of these.They will judge others from this perspective. When they judge you it's not really about you.  It's about their own insecurities, limitations and needs, so changing yourself to please them won't change any of those.Remember this and stay kind. Stay committed to love and be free in your authenticity.#BeCommiittedToBeYou #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #JorseHippie #HorseHippieBrand #HorsehippieBoutique #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "Your dream doesn't have an expiration date. Take a deep breath and try again.

Morning Mantra: "Someday it is going to make sense" A lot of what is happening in the world right now doesn't make sense.  It's not what we are used to.  It's like humanity is being cracked open and the ugly is being revealed.  It doesn't make sense why we are were we are.  I'm certain that eventually it will, but until then...smile at the confusion, laugh through the tears,be kind to yourself, and trust the process.Because there is kindness, and love, and beauty too.  And it will outshine the darkness.#BePatient #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "Your opinion of me is a reflection of you."Everyone has a different mental mindset that gives them a unique perspective on things, including other people. They see mostly what they want to see, for their personal views and agenda.  Make peace with the fact that people hold different versions of you in their mind. Love yourself and know yourself well enough to never get caught up in their projections. Ultimately, who you know yourself to be is what matters the most.#BeYourself #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Your life's course will not be determined by doing the things you are certain you can do. It will be determined by whether you try the things that are hard."It's difficult to get back up and get going again when you've been repeatedly knocked down. It's difficult, but it's not impossible.It's difficult to move forward with enthusiasm and energy when much of what you encounter is negative and discouraging. That's certainly difficult, but it's not impossible.It's easy to know what you must do. It's much more difficult to actually do it, yet it's not impossible.The very fact that something is difficult probably means it is worth doing. Those who overcome and achieve their goals are those who are willing to do the difficult stuff.#BeWillingToDoWhatsDifficult  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending." For a moment pretend your life is a house.  You usually go room to room looking for work to be done, and things that happened that need to be fixed. It's so overwhelming that you decide to just live with it.  You pretend not to notice the damage, you just push the feelings created down deeper.Today, for a change, when you go through the rooms, instead of looking for flaws and mistakes, look for potential, for promise.  Look at it with a different perspective.Look for simple changes that can free you from the burdens. Look at it with the understanding that change is hard but worth it.Our lives reflect our past but we should not dwell there. We should not get used to the pain.  We have the power to change the outcome.  We have the power to create something beautiful.#BeWillingToChangeTheEnding #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "Get glowing. The world needs your magic." Every single person has a gift that is so unique to them that the world wouldn't be the same without it.  That gift is you and your energy. We are all connected, so when you uncover your dreams and passions and share them with the world, everyone benefits.  Share your ideas, your creativity, your time, your support, your love.You are a gift, a beautiful, magical gift, it's time to start believing this and sharing it. So let's get glowing!#BeAGiftGiver #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "Stop watering dead relationships and expecting them to grow."Letting go of someone who doesn't respect you is one of the bravest things you can do.  So please don't stay in a bad relationship out of fear or insecurity.I never thought about how hard it was to leave a toxic relationship until I had one. After being in one, I realized how a person could be your world and at the same time be the reason why you believed you couldn't be loved and treated the way you deserve to be. That's why people stay with them for years, even while being unhappy and an unfulfilled.But leaving taught me something I never imagined – it showed me my own strength. It reminded me that love should never come with the cost of my self-worth. Walking away wasn't easy, but it was the first step towards finding myself again. And in doing so, I opened the door to the love and peace I truly deserved all along.#BeWillingToStopWatering #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Don't focus so much on the To Do list, that you forget about the To Be list." It's okay to want to be productive, but in our increasingly demanding world, sometimes getting things done comes at the expense of your happiness, your peace, your relationships and your health.Especially in the US, over working can be seen as some sort of positive attribute.Some even wear their exhaustion like a badge of honor.Skipping meals, lack of sleep and missing time with friends and family is not something to be applauded.  Remember to take time to rest, recharge, restore, and try not to feel guilty about it, that just defeats the purpose.#BeWillingToRest #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotesforRiders #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Everything is a win when the goal is experience."When I taught riding lessons and took my students to horse shows I used to tell them that they will either win or learn.  So basically there is no losing.  Life is one long lesson.  We learn with everything we do.We spend every day making choices. Sometimes it's a simple choice- not really going to impact the rest of your life- like what to order in a new restaurant.  Other times the choices are huge- like whether to take a certain job or to get married.In every choice we learn.  We gain experience. In our examples above- if we order the wrong thing we learn what not to order next time, if it's something really great we win.  Either way we win. If we take a job and the company atmosphere is toxic- we learn.  If it's the best job ever- we win. Again- both wins.As with everything in life- it is our response to our choices that matters.  It's our attitude about the outcome that determines our happiness.  If you look at things as a learning experience, not as life punishing you, even the losses become wins.#BeAboutExperience #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "All great things begin from the inside." When the world makes no sense, go inside yourself.If you establish serenity and happiness inside yourself, you provide your world with a solid base of peace.  If you look for it outside in an ever-changing world, it will be fleeting.It must be discovered within you. The answers you seek. The love you need.The real truth about yourself.Go inside and you'll find that everything you want and need, is already there.#BeStillAndGoInside  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra  #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutiqueQuotes: Thich Nhat Hanh and Rumi

Morning Mantra: "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."On his birthday I like to use a quote from Martin Luther King Jr.   This quote reminds us that not speaking up, speaks volumes. Silence becomes cowardice when occasions demand speaking out the whole truth and acting accordingly.We are at a pivotal point in our country, some see it clearly as a way to recognize that everyone on earth is connected. Because it's not possible to be in favor of justice for some people and not being in favor of justice for all people.There are no borders, states, cities, races, cultures, or genders when you look at the Earth from space.  There's no us versus them. It's just one big beautiful blue dot trying to support the billions of humans that depend on it.It's man that creates the chaos. It's humans that separate, segregate, and divide us. That create an "Us vs Them".  But it's up to us whether we allow it or not. I am willing to take a stand. I am willing to say how I feel. My truth is that no matter where you are now, where you come from, or who you love, you are welcome here. I believe the only way forward is together.Quotes: MLKJr, Gandhi#BeWillingToTakeAStand #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "What if the change you are avoiding is the one that gives you wings?"If you are serious about change, you'll have to go through uncomfortable situations.  Stop trying to dodge the process. It's the only way to grow. The work you are avoiding is the work you need to do.Real change usually asks us to sit with discomfort instead of rushing past it. Growth tends to happen when we allow the process to unfold at a pace we can actually hold. The process can feel uncomfortable, but meeting it with patience and care makes growth more sustainable and less overwhelming.If you dodge, you stay lodged.#BeOpenToChange #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "In life, everyone is your teacher."Some people teach us what to do and some people teach us what not to do. Both are very important.  I've learned this the hard way over the years. Some people helped me grow by example, others by contrast—but all of it became part of the lesson. The people who teach us what not to do often leave the deepest lessons. We learn boundaries from those who crossed them. We learn self-worth from those who didn't see ours. Painful teachers, but powerful ones.Discernment often comes from paying attention to how we feel in someone's presence.#BeAwareOfTheTeachers #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutiqueQuote: Noreen Kahn

Morning Mantra: "Don't cry before you try."You've heard them, or maybe it was you that said "I can't do it!" before you even tried.  The only real requirement in life is to try. If you try your best and fail, well at least you tried your best.  Most people quit before they really try.  Things get hard, they decide they can't do it, so they stop trying.Life is an experiment, some things we try and we succeed, others we don't. But if you quit before you tried everything, then whatever it was you just quit wasn't that important to you in the long run.Don't worry about how it looks to others, what will happen if you fail, or how much time will pass during the process. None of that matters if what you are trying to achieve matters to you.So go for it.#BeWilingToTry #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "I believe in the power of yet."The power of Yet is undeniable.  Instead of telling yourself you can't do something, you'll never understand something, you'll always be overweight, you're never going to learn something.... Go for a walk, take a deep breath, then come back and add the word Yet.I can't do this- Yet.I don't understand-Yet.I'm not where I want to be- Yet.I am not healthy- Yet.I don't know- Yet.It doesn't make sense- Yet.Adding Yet brings hope.  Yet adds possibility. Yet changes your perspective. Yet means anything is possible. #BeAYetAdder #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "Choose your thoughts wisely, they are a conversation with the Universe." Did you know that nothing can destroy iron, but it's own rust? Likewise, no one can destroy you, but your own mindset can.  Thoughts lead to feelings, feelings lead to actions, actions lead to reactions.In other words, it all begins in your head.Control your mindset (thoughts), control the outcome. How this works:  instead of thinking "I am so fat" then feeling bad about it and soothing yourself with a cookie, change your thoughts to "I am going to take care of my body." which will create feelings of empowerment, which will lead to actions that help, like a walk.Every thought, emotion and action becomes a statement of who we are and who we are becoming.  So why not make this statement on purpose?Choose positive thoughts. Choose to see the glass half full.  Choose to be around uplifting people.  Choose to become self aware enough to notice your limiting beliefs.Choose your thoughts wisely.#BeAPositiveThinker  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "How people treat you is their karma. How you react is yours.”When someone treats you badly or talks about you behind your back, don't take it personally.   It's says nothing about you but a whole lot about them. Why is it we want to automatically think something is done because of who we are instead of who THEY are?  You are not the one judging and being mean.  So let them. Don't react to something unless you know for certain it is being said or done on purpose.  Then respond with curiosity as to why they feel this way.  Communicate with the intention of understanding not retaliation.No one can make you feel a certain way without your permission- so don't allow someone else's limited view of you change who you really are.#BeElevated #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes  Image: Horses for the Spirit

Morning Mantra: "In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit."This quote by Anne Frank is very appropriate right now with all the chaos and fear being created in our world.  It can make you feel hopeless, scared and angry.  Remember- energy is everything.  It spreads outward from everyone that is feeling so it's important to spread kindness, calm, courage and faith.  Each time you do, it builds on what's being spread by other kind, loving souls.If you are mad, look at the root of your feelings- is it the injustice in the world or are you joining the anger generated by those that are full of hate?  Getting mad is a healthy response to cruelty but it must be followed by action and purpose or it will just add volume to the energy from the haters.Seek outlets.  Seek other people that want peace.  Seek inner calm wherever you can.  Stay rooted in love.  Stay rooted in the truth. Join your energies with other positive energies and the light of love will shine for those stuck in fear and rage.#BeTheEnergyYouSeek #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Morning Mantra: "When everything feels too big, go little."You can't really outrun feeling overwhelmed. All you can do is slow down, take smaller bites of the world, smaller steps in the journey and make tinier to-do lists.When you slow down, most of the stress will pass you by.  When you rest you can recharge, breathe deeper, reset your nervous system.If you have too much to do then be still.  If you are always frantically rushing to the next thing you miss the moment you're in.  Each thing you do should get your full attention.  Be fully present.  You will get there, but for now you're here, and here is wonderful.#BeWillingToSlowDown #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #horsehippieboutique Quote: Donna Ashworth

Morning Mantra: "Nature is the purest portal to inner peace."Before Horse Hippie I had a shop called Back to Nature.  It was a place that honored the role of nature in my life.  It was a reflection of my love for the earth, a love instilled in me by my mother.  My mother taught me to see the beauty but also all of the ways nature is such a healer. Just think about all she offers to us:~Watching a sunset or sunrise can regulate your circadian rhythm and calm your mind.~Walking in a forest can boost your immunity.~Listening to birdsong can lower anxiety and improve focus.~The negative ions in ocean air can elevate your mood and energy. ~The scent of flowers boosts dopamine and serotonin which relieves stress.~Sunlight provides vitamin D, uplifts moods and regulates sleep.~The scent of snow contains ozone notes which refresh and clear the mind.~Mountain views enhance a sense of awe and wonder. Yet, with all these benefits, how often do we choose to let her heal us?  The next time you feel stress- hug a tree, walk barefoot in the grass, just sit and watch the sunset or listen to the birds.  Consciously allow nature to offer you her gifts.#BeANatureLover #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover

Morning Mantra: "The more we allow ourselves to unfold, the less likely we are to unravel."The art of unfolding allows us to become who we have always known ourselves to be; our authentic, soul-infused self, long suppressed under years of outward conditioning. The more you view life as a journey of spiritual rebirth, as a walk home to yourself, rather than something to simply endure, the less likely you are to settle for a life of trying to fit in, people pleasing, or ignoring deep seated dreams.The more you are willing to boldly discover the full range of who you are, the less likely you are to see change as a bad thing. If you surrender to the process of your life unfolding and embrace being transformed to your best self, you will not fear the process, or what you may discover.Quote: Rabbi Kula#BeBoldlyYou #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: “Life goes on.” Three little words that are the foundation of acceptance.  Acceptance doesn't mean resignation. It means understanding that something is what it is and that there is a way though it.People change, things go wrong, but always remember, life goes on. You've got to take the good with the bad, the happy and the sad. That's life.You can appreciate what you have, and remember what you had with fondness and joy. Accepting things are as they are removes the anger and frustration associated with trying to control things and allows you to deal with life in a more peaceful way.  Working WITH life, not against it.These three words sum up everything I know about life, it goes on.#BeAcceptingofLife #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHipoie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #EquestrianQuotes #HorseLover

Morning Mantra: "You can learn from those who agree with you, but many times you can learn even more from those with whom you disagree." Your own perspective is important, it enables you to make sense of the world. Always keep in mind, though, that yours is not the only view.  Every human on earth has their own unique perspective of the world we share.If everyone you knew held the exact same opinion on every subject, then your knowledge and wisdom would never grow. It is possible to listen to others, learn from them, and successfully work with them, even though you may not agree with them on all issues. Making real progress in your journey to be your best self requires you to let go of the assumption that you already have all the answers. You must be open to learning. Your own perspective will grow wider when you regularly allow it to be challenged. It is possible to stay true to the values that are your truth, while thoughtfully considering the different perspectives of others. #BeOpenToDifferentPerspectives #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Morning Mantra: "Decide what kind of life you want, then say No to anything that isn't that."You know what you want. You know how you want to live, who you want to be, how your life should feel. If it's unclear or cloudy find your passion- then follow it. Build a life around it.Decide what you want. Then, every moment, every decision and every choice you make from here on out will be made with the sole purpose of creating the life you desire.If you don't take the time to create the life you want, you'll spend all your time dealing with a life you don't.#BeALifeCreator #BeHappy#BeHorsey #BeHippie#HorseHippie#MorningMantra#inspirationalQuotes#MorningMotivation#Equestrian #HorseLover#QuotesToInspire#HorseHippieBrand#HorseHippieBoutique
