A Visit to...Anthropologie

20 08 2012

Lucky you, if you live close to an Anthropologie store. As far as i know we have only one in Europe and that is in London - still far away from where i live in Germany...

So - whenever i have the change to see all their lovely things in real, nothing can stop me! Plus the sales staff of the Santa Barbara store is really sweet and invited me to shoot as many pictures as I wanted. Thank you!

Careful - here comes the flood...

And those cute grey white dotted sale pants went home with me!

What about you - Do you have a favorite store/company near by? What's its name? Do you prefer online shopping or the good old brick and mortar way?

Have a great week start,

XOXO, Anette 


Rituals - Roots And Wings Included

26 04 2012

Before the day starts I do yoga every morning!

O.k.

I TRY to do Yoga every morning... 

It's actually so much easier to do it every morning as a ritual, because then these stupid conversations inside your head, whether this or that would be more urgent to do than doing yoga, are simply swept under the mat. 

Yoga IS goodforyouandyourbodyandyourhealthandtheuniverse - so let's do it!

With Yogis Anonymous or Yoga Easy or a great DVD or in your favorite yoga studio or just you and yourself - everything works - and with regularity comes ritual.

According to Constanze Kleis, rituals can give us something truly amazing: roots and wings simultaneously. Psychologist figured out the true potential of rituals. They are a sort of base camp for feelings and are identified as the most important stabilizing factor in families as well as bringing forth and fostering creativity, imagination and awakening.

WOW!!! 

Well - that's totally worth it, right?

Do you have any rituals?
