August Box - The Sun Salutation
Welcome to the August box, inspired by the vibrating sun, and the female energy, which are both essential to life. By providing nourishment and strength we explore the heat and the resilience to flourish on our inside and outside.
Discover the Hidden Gems
This month’s curated gifts are tokens of this profound connection, symbolizing the harmonious blend of strength and gentleness, vitality and serenity. Like the sun salutation in yoga, which honors the sun’s light and celebrates inner balance, these gifts are a tribute to the radiant energy that flows through both the sun and the soul of a woman.
Yoga - Sun Salutation sequence 🧘♀️
Like the sun moving around earth embracing twelve unique months, the same flow offers the Sun Salutation sequence.
The practice aims to create union between body, mind and spirit, as well as between the individual self and universal consciousness. Such a union tends to neutralize ego-driven thoughts and behaviours, creating a sense of spiritual awakening.
This months theme of Sun Salutation is to help boost energy by aligning the body properly, leading to better circulation of the blood. The lungs, nervous system, heart, as well as joints and muscles will benefit from sun salutation routines. The increased blood circulation will help distribute energy evenly throughout the body.
Inner strength - Affirmations 🤲
Whether you’ve already incorporated affirmations into your daily routine or if you are new to this practice, this is your time to create your first or another affirmation to embrace for the month of August.
Together, let’s embody the power of being a woman and draw inspiration from the sun—how it influences everything in its surroundings. Your affirmation can be something to lift yourself up, boost your confidence, guide you toward change, or help you achieve your dreams and goals.
Repeat your chosen affirmation to yourself five times every morning and every night before bed. This practice sets a tone of self-love and determination, providing a strong start and a peaceful end to your day by centering yourself.
The treasures of the Sun Salutation box
Just like the radiant of the sun, always giving warmth and light, this month's box is curated to empower the female energy, and to lift what we believe in - Femness 🧡
Sunglasses 🕶️
Something fitting for this months theme to embrace the sun, is to wear shades. We thought it was fun how the sun creates shades out of everything in its way, and therefore we wanted to represent the other side of the sun as well - the shade.
Yogi Tea 🫖
Take a moment for yourself, somewhere where you can indulge this tea as a token for the love you have for yourself. This month we chose a tea that stimulates your inner sources and helps you recharge your batteries.
Preferably enjoyed during a sunrise or sunset 🧡
"The sun sometimes creates beautiful silhouettes, which is a playful way to see oneself from another perspective"
I hope you enjoy Sun Salutation as much as I have 💜
