Dressing with Intent: Finding Your Vibe
Share
Dressing with Intent is a conscious shift towards a more meaningful and fulfilling life. π It's about aligning your inner world with your outer expression, and understanding how the clothes you choose can impact your mood, your energy, and the planet. β¨
Let's be honest, fast fashion has taken over the world. ποΈ But the truth is, it comes at a huge cost to our planet and the people who make our clothes. π
That's where sustainable fashion comes in! β»οΈ It's all about choosing clothes that are ethically made, using eco-friendly materials like organic cotton and recycled polyester. π± Look for brands that prioritise fair labour practices and minimise their environmental impact.
Dressing with Intent is about more than just looking good. πββοΈ It's about understanding why you're wearing something. π§ Is it because it's trendy? Or because it makes you feel confident and empowered? πͺ
Conscious living encourages us to be mindful of our clothing choices. π Ask yourself questions like:
-
Where did this item come from? π
-
Who made it? π§βπ
-
How will it impact the environment? π³
By making conscious choices, you can build a wardrobe that reflects your values and supports a more sustainable future. π
Did you know that the colors you wear can actually impact your mood and energy? π
Energy alignment is about using the power of colour, affirmations, and intention to amplify your energy and attract positive experiences. β¨ When you dress with intention, you're sending a powerful message to the universe about who you are and what you want to achieve. π
