If you’re like us, you may occasionally forget to put your deodorant in your yoga bag. Good news: BDirty Deodorant is now available at YYoga Vancouver and Toronto locations. Problem solved with this ultimate wellness duo!
And to celebrate our new collaboration with YYoga, we have rounded up a collection of informative links that yogis of all types – and even those of you who don’t do downward dogs – are sure to find useful!
Self Care Rituals
On the farmstead, we greet the sun every morning with our yoga practice. Whether you’re putting on your rubber work boots to get earthy in the garden or you’re about to slip on your heels and head to the office, doing even just five minutes of yoga breathing will give you immense benefits to your health & wellness. As YYoga’s blog post on the benefits of early morning yoga explains, yoga breathing can actually help remove the groggy feeling you feel when you wake up. This type of breathing will clear away the “fuzz” your brain experiences when it awakens from a night of sleep, and it will give you clarity and focus to greet the day ahead. ~Namaste~
The World of Wellness
On the farmstead, we love crafting everything fermented. Kombucha and its fabulous health benefits are at the top of our list! For something similar at the YYoga Kitsilano Tea Lounge, pick up a locally-crafted Culture Craft Kombucha…it’s uber refreshing! Supporting yourself and local businesses at the same time – what could be more nourishing?
Eco-Friendly Lifestyle Choices Made Easy
Whether on your yoga mat, in the gym, or in the garden with your hands working in the earth, getting your sweat on is an amazing release for the body, mind and spirit. That “glow” truly is golden, and your skin will thank you for it! From controlling mood swings to fighting colds and other surprising benefits (read them all here), sweating is a superpower you didn’t know you have. So go ahead, sweat it out and BDirty…with our natural honey deodorant, we’ve got you covered!
Speaking of sweating…as the days grow hotter, it’s all the more important to stay hydrated. Using a glass bottle instead of a plastic one can reduce your plastic footprint, which is a simple but oh-so-important thing you can do to help our planet. At BDirty, we try to do our part to reduce the growing plastic crisis in our oceans, and we hope you’ll join the movement! One earth-friendly alternative to plastic bottled water that we love are Life Factory’s glass bottles.
P.S. Did you know that YYoga studios offer water fountains to refill your water bottles? Way better than grabbing yet another plastic bottle on your way to your next yoga session. Instead tote your own from home, and fill up after class!
