Morning Mojo

Bring what fulfills you and sustains you into focus and balance. Join us Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at Pecan Creek Ranch for some reflection, deep breaths, and a profound connection with yourself and the environment around you. Enjoy the vast grassland, 9 horses, 1 friendly goat, old oak trees, and open skies as you connect with the natural rhythms of life.

Research tells us that being in nature, feeling the rhythm of life, hearing the songs of birds, feeling the sun on our skin, the kiss of the wind, and connecting with animals all lower our heart rate, reduce the tension in our muscles, and produces a sense of calm and ease. Imagine starting your day immersed in the natural world and allowing yourself to be. You have nothing to do for thirty minutes but be present with yourself and the world around you. No phone pinging, no messages to return, nothing to do but breathe, and allow yourself time to enjoy the moment.

It may take time for your body to unwind and allow yourself to be. In our go-go-go world, we are not used to sitting still, walking without a purpose, listening to the stillness within, noticing what is around us, and enjoying the connection another being brings, whether that is a bird, a goat, a horse, a cat, or a dog. In this dedicated time, you can let go of everything and allow yourself the time and space to unwind and start your day fresh.

Often, we start our day looking at our devices, which sends a ton of cortisol into our bodies, jacking up our nervous system. By the time we prepare our breakfast and get the kids ready for school, we are churning on the insides, our muscles are tense, and we are frustrated and on edge. And we haven’t even really begun the day. We encourage you to stop this cycle and explore what it would be like to begin your day differently and to enjoy the benefits of starting your day connected and at ease.

When you join us at Pecan Creek Ranch for Morning Mojo, you'll have the choice of how to spend your time.

1. You will have the freedom to wander and explore. You can take a chair out into the pasture and see if the horses stop by to say hello. You can take a leisurely walk and discover the beauty of the grounds. You can sit under an ancient tree, listen to the birds, and enjoy your coffee. You can spend time with a horse while he eats breakfast. You can relax by the fish pond, watch the fish, and listen to the soothing sound of the water. The time is yours, undirected, so you can do what your body and soul need.

2. Our skilled and welcoming facilitators will provide you with an activity or guidance on how you may want to spend your time. We may instruct you on how to do a walking meditation, an exercise to bring you back into awareness of your senses and body, mindfully feeding morning rations to our older horses, or practice opening doors for connection and intention in the presence of our therapy herd.

Spaces are limited. Reserve your spot by purchasing a one-time ticket for $20, or save and purchase a month's pass for $150.
