Baby steps

My brother and I. circa 1985

My yoga teacher said this in class today and I wanted to write it somewhere so I don't forget it: "What you think today, you will be in five years. So think that you are beautiful and gorgeous." I'm beginning to think its true, that what we think in our heads we create in our life.  So I'm going to give myself permission to think a little bit brighter and a little bit bigger.

Similarly, I read this article today about having the courage to dream big dreams for your life. Its funny, how dreaming big is a no brainer in kindergarten, but somewhere along the way of life, we get beat down a little too much and big dreams become a little too ridiculous and a little too scary.

Maybe it doesn't have to be that way. Apparently, we can start just inside of our heads, thinking better thoughts. That's not so scary. And then, perhaps take a few small steps.

You should know, I think baby steps are totally underrated. I love them. Oftentimes, a few small actions in one direction create a wave of enormous change. One time, when my brother was about seven, he was playing in the cotton fields at our house in Texas. He decided to make a tiny hole in a irrigation canal to make himself a little pool. In a few minutes he had flooded a field.

I think it could be like that.


The encouraging article is here.
Take note the author is wearing teeki's recycled-from-plastic bottles-pants. The California Fall Hot Pant to be specific. This is a blog about yoga clothes after all.

Recycled plastic bottles into yoga pants! Yes!

Hold the phone.

You can create yoga pants from recycled plastic bottles.

You can buy these pants and they are cute.

AND they are all USA made, something else to feel good about.

I want to order ten pairs!

My favorites are the sun short denim.. they look like cute denim cut-offs.


And these Hot Desert Pants:

The company is called Teeki, and you can find them here. They also have swim wear and active wear tops made from the recycled plastic. You can read about their eco process and the story of their company on their website. Reduce waste and support jobs in the USA. These yoga clothes are winners in my book. They are even less expensive then other yoga brands!
