A beautiful sunrise, a peaceful horse, and the sound of crunching hay combine perfectly into a morning meditation. Sometimes I need to remind myself not to rush through chores at the fastest possible speed, but instead to breathe deeply, listen to the muted sounds of morning, and soak in the visual beauty that surrounds me. My day gets off to a much better start when I simply slow down and pay attention to the beauty!
The next time you're riding, feeding or caring for your horse, take a moment to really focus on what your horse adds to life. Let yourself experience the joy that comes from being aware, from being in the moment.
What a wonderful reminder! I love watching my horses, listening to them eat, tuning in with them each as I turn them out every morning. Thank you!
