Horse Hippie’s Morning Mantras

Be the Energy You Seek

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

Go Little

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

The Gifts from Nature

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

Unfolding Instead of Unraveling

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.

Life Goes On

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
