Morning Mantra: "The vacation we often need is a break from our own mind." I don't know about you, but I need a break. From worrying about my business. From concern for my family. From the stress of the condition of our planet. From politically induced hyper-concern for marginalized people. It's getting to me. But I also know I am in charge of my feelings. I can take a break- or 20- and reduce the stress and worry. I can recharge in nature or at the barn. I can reconnect with my breath through meditation. I can Facetime, write love letters, and send care packages. I can flip the thought patterns that control my emotions from negative to positive. When there is nothing I can do to change the outside world, I turn to controlling what's inside of me. #BeWillingToTakeAMindVacation #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #Morningmantra #InspirationalQuotes
