Finding Your Rhythm

Morning Mantra: "You find your rhythm when you realize that even the steps backwards were part of the dance." Life is like a dance, and you are the choreographer.  You don’t know the steps until you learn them because in life, you learn as you go.  Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow. Sometimes you’re moving forward, sometimes you’re moving back. Sometimes you’re waltzing through it gracefully and other times it’s two step forward and one step back. Try to embrace every step, make your dance as fun and beautiful as possible, and if you stumble or fall, make it part of the dance. When you do, you will find your rhythm.  #BeAHappyDancer [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/beahappydancer?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #BeHappy [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/behappy?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #BeHorsey [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/behorsey?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #BeHippie [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/behippie?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #HorseHippie [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/horsehippie?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #MorningMantra [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/morningmantra?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #WordsToInspire [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/wordstoinspire?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #InspirationalQuotes [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/inspirationalquotes?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #SmallBusinessOwner [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/smallbusinessowner?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #WomenOwned [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/womenowned?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #HorseHippieBoutique [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/horsehippieboutique?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #MorningMotivation [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/morningmotivation?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #Equestrian [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/equestrian?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #HorseLover [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/horselover?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #QuotesToInspire [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/quotestoinspire?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R] #HorseHippieBoutique [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/horsehippieboutique?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZYtPH4C_ttmf4RHrzH9TJBliAVynO_m_H_MDMRAxrMg3nVgb1kMQfdW3pr9MRN5ORUZWDCqnAMa-GBgHu9pRaq7exdhIeEqIv9FxG4cTDKwXVmkL2fbW37jA3kOcaCurAVRT-DrDfeIj55cisu88QDd&__tn__=*NK-R]

No Embarrassment Allowed

Morning Mantra: "You can spend your whole life avoiding embarrassment and accidentally avoid joy too." Embarrassment is caused by putting far too much thought into what other people think very little about. It’s better to not care what people think and live life to the fullest rather than missing out and being someone you aren’t.  Because sometimes embarrassment is the cost of entry to an amazing adventure. The people actually enjoying life are allowing themselves to be excited, emotional, passionate, invested in joy. Existing like you’re too cool to care about anything is such a dull way to experience being alive. Sometimes the greatest things about life are the most embarrassing! They offer things that no other moment can.  And many times we look back and realize that those moments were the funniest, most exciting, most joy – filled moments in our lives. So stop overthinking it and wear the bathing suit to the beach and swim with your kids or grandkids, dance even when people are watching, play the game at the party, try something new!  Hopefully you will realize how rarely people actually care about what you do. Don't  give up the opportunities for happiness that life offers. #BeOkWithEmbarassing #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Toxic Positivity

Morning Mantra: "Never tell a person to be strong when they come to you to be weak." I know I talk a lot on here about being positive.  But there is a phenomenon called toxic positivity that we should all be aware of. Toxic positivity is a process which results in denial, minimization, and invalidation of the authentic human emotional experience. Toxic positivity is a forced, false positivity. So when you or someone share something difficult, it insists that you turn it into something positive.  Which ultimately should be our goal, except we need to feel our emotions, process the experience, and find our way to a better place authentically. If someone comes to you in their weakest state, let’s say from grief, and you encourage them to be strong instead of allowing them to experience the grief, what you’re basically saying to them is your comfort is more important than their reality. There’s a difference between being truly happy and pretending everything‘s fine when it’s not. Let’s not encourage ourselves or others to feel like it’s “wrong” for feeling anything but OK.  Let's be a safe space for real feelings. #BeOpenToLessThanHappySometimes #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

The Wait

Morning Mantra: "Sometimes the wait is longer because the blessing is bigger." When you have a dream that you can’t let go of, trust your instincts and pursue it. But remember; real dreams take work, they take patience, and sometimes they require you to dig down very deep. Waiting for things to happen can require a deep amount of patience. And patience isn’t simply the ability to wait, it’s how we behave while we’re waiting. You must remember and believe that everything comes to you at the right time. Each day is a step forward. Even if it feels like a small one. Never give up on something really want.  Dreams don’t expire; they wait patiently for your courage to catch up. #BePatientWithTheProcess  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Falling is A Part of Life

Morning Mantra: “It's not how we fall that defines us. It's how we get up again.” It’s called falling forward. Falling forward is the ability to get back up after you’ve been knocked down.  When you fall, process it, take responsibility for your response to it, learn from it, and move forward in a better direction. You only really fail if you stay down. Failure and falling are a part of life. Getting back up and learning are living. #BeAForwardFaller #BeHappy #BeHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippie #HorsehippieBoutique
