Horse Hippie’s Morning Mantras

Choosing to Forgive

Morning Mantra: "Forgiveness is just another name for freedom."   There is a cleansing and refreshing freedom which comes from forgiveness.  Forgiving someone does not mean you must trust them, or allow them into a position where they can hurt you again. Forgiveness means letting go of the weight of anger and moving on. Lighter, less burdened. Forgiveness doesn't mean that what happened was acceptable. It means that you’ve chosen to no longer let it hold you back. To no longer let it be the lens you see things through. Forgiveness frees you from the attachment, from the weight, from the negative energy.  Forgive and be free. #BeWillingToForgive  #BeHappie #BeHorsie #BeHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippie

What You See in Others is Also in You

Morning Mantra: "What we see reflected in others depends on the clarity of the window through which we look."    Whatever you see when you evaluate other people, is a projection of what is inside of you.  In order to recognize something in others, you must first have it within yourself. More often than not, what we dislike in others are the very things we do not like in ourselves. Trying to run away from this by blaming others, will only prolong the problem and make it worse.  Facing and accepting is the only way to change. The good news is that this “mirror” has a positive side to it. The inspiring, uplifting things you see in other people, are in you as well. When you recognize things like compassion, beauty, caring and affection, you’re also seeing a projection of yourself. You see these things because they are a part of you, you recognize them. The source of your thoughts and feelings about other people, about things, about situations, is you. When you see darkness, it is your darkness. When you see beauty, it is your own beauty. Grasp this concept, and you can change your world. #BeClearOnYourReflection  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHIppie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes

YOUnique

Morning Mantra: "Why fit in when you were born to be different."   Each one of us is born unique. What sets you apart can sometimes feel like a burden but it’s not, it’s what makes you great. It's what sets you apart.  Only YOU can be YOU, how awesome is that? Being unique is what makes you unforgettable.  Interesting.  Creative.  Courageous. Original. Amazing. Bold. Unusual. Don't hesitate to be different if that is where you feel the most yourself.  Don't change yourself to fit in if it means you are not being authentic. Shine your beautiful, unusual self.  #BeYouNique #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Peace Within

Morning Mantra: "In peace you hear the calling of your deepest purpose."   Let your life be a place where peace can be. Release thoughts of conflict, judgment, and separateness that push peace away.  Release your need to be right. Replace thoughts of hostility and resentment with thoughts of understanding and forgiveness. Seek achievement with a peaceful heart by accepting the timing of your life. You can respond to life's set backs with acceptance and patience instead of reacting as if life is out to get you. Be fully engaged in life while also being completely at peace with mindful awareness of how you are feeling and adjusting accordingly. #BeAtPeaceWithin  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Face it to Fix it

Morning Mantra: "Running from your problems only gets you further away from their solutions."    You have to face them to fix them.  You can try to avoid them but eventually this will manifest in your health, your peace of mind, your relationships.  Try and see challenges as what keeps life interesting, and that overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.  Then take small bites of the bigger issue.  One you feel like you can tackle. For example, are you experiencing health issues related to your lifestyle? Trying to change your diet and start an exercise program all at once can lead you to avoid any change at all.  It's too big and overwhelming. Why not start small-with just walking a block.  Commit to every day.  Once you have formed that habit it will feel good and inspire another change.  Maybe eliminate one food that isn't good for you.  Start with breakfast. and so on... By facing the problem simply, slowly, and in small, sustainable steps, you will be less likely to avoid facing it at all.  Each step in the direction of a solution fuels the next. #BeWillingToFaceYourProblems  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique
