I have some BIG news to share with you today.  It’s with great pride I announce the debut of the free to be yoga tee line, which is on sale NOW!

The Earth-friendly line features two styles for women--the baby-rib tank and the v-neck tee--with several choices of design and color.  Both styles are made from viscose fiber produced from certified organically grown bamboo and blended with either organic cotton (v-neck) or Lycra (tank).

Bamboo is nature’s most sustainable resource and is naturally regenerative.  It is grown without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers, and requires no irrigation.  The fabric is also known to have natural wicking properties and is odor resistant--making it the perfect top to sweat in!  The shirts are also anti-static and have natural UV protection, making them great for any activity indoors or outside.

The custom design work is printed with water-based inks, which are better for the environment than plastisol ink, which is widely used in the t-shirt industry.  Even the hangtags are made from recycled paper and are embedded with wildflowers that consumers can soak, plant and watch grow!

In addition to being Earth-friendly, the shirts are proudly made in the USA!

On behalf of free to be yoga tees, I’d like to thank you for your support.  Also, I’d like to invite you to check out the line, which is available now at www.freetobeyogatees.com under the SHOP tab.

This has been an incredible adventure so far, not to mention a learning experience.  I appreciate your feedback, so if you run into any challenges during the purchase process, please shoot me an e-mail at freetobeyogatees@gmail.com and let me know.

Thanks again!

Namaste,
Julie

I traveled to the northwest this past weekend for a mini-vacation.  During my sightseeing extravaganza, I was pleasantly surprised how green it was.  And I’m not talking about the lush evergreen forests that blanket the area.  I am referring to how eco-friendly it was--I must say it’s truly inspiring!

While the green movement has been increasingly popular over the last couple of years, I was surprised by how far ahead they seem to be out there.  Whether it was the electric buses, car pool lanes, hybrid cars, recycling bins, farmers markets, natural food stores, homeopathic pharmacies, the theme was green no matter which way you looked. 

In Seattle, I noticed a recycle bin next to each garbage can throughout the city.  Talk about convenient!  Of course people will be more apt to recycle when it’s so easy!  It’s not a hassle out there...it’s a way of life.

As I arrived home in the mitten, I felt motivated.  I plan to look into organizations trying to implement green initiatives and get involved.  If we all make a conscious effort, imagine the difference we can make!  I look forward to the day that no matter where I travel, every city is green and a recycle bin sits along my path. 

Namaste!
