New Yoga and Meditation Shirts


Here is a pale blue V-neck shirt with my latest Yoga design.
On the front is the Om Heart-center, for focusing on the Heart chakra, and a sunflower for focusing on the Solar Plexus chakra. The Om Mani Padme Hum mantra circles around the perimeter of the heart image. On the back of the shirt is a Pigeon with Namaste’ logo in honor of the Pigeon pose.
(Pigeon is one of my fave poses that really de-stresses me!)
I find it helps to be able to have a visual prompt and an idea of body awareness on which to direct one’s mental energy while meditating or doing yoga. I can also see, during our yoga class interactions, that it can aid as a teaching tool as well.
One of my yoga teachers, Dawn Reid, and I collaborated on the Om heart image, and the garment image design as a whole recently finally came together.
I am doing a few different styles of garments for this design.
This shirt design is currently being hosted at Chestnut Hill Yoga,
thanks to Bobbi.
