The Link Between Yoga And Fashion

By Jordan Schmidt


Some people might see a large gap between a life that is vain and one that is closer to spiritual. This is also true in the areas of yoga and fashion since they seem to be at opposite ends of the spectrum of reality. Yet, if looked at in a different way, it is easy to see how they can be identified in similar ways and work to accomplish similar goals in the life of a person.

Today's world is fast past and busy all the time, and it is easy to reach for a quick fix for everything. So when one decides to practice exercises that move at a slower pace in some instances, they might find it boring. If a person takes the time to go at their own pace they will learn much more about themselves and what is true for them.

This aspect is also related to one's style and personality. It is easy for a person to look at trends and think that because everyone else is wearing something that they should wear it as well. Yet, being a follower of trends means that there is no thought into what is right for the individual. It is not about being seen for who they are and this is something that needs to be realized.

There are also different aspects that one needs to be aware of which go beyond poses and clothes. There are many who take the time to study spiritual books, change their diet so that it is cleaner, and who also make sure that their actions are in line with what is right. For them, they are creating a way of life for themselves that is in harmony with the type of exercises they do.

The type of clothing one wears is also multidimensional. There are a number of factors that go into designing a piece of clothing that many do not realize. There is the line, color, texture, among other things which have to be looked at before a particular design can be realized. There are also themes that a designer might have for his or her collection which reflect the direction fashion is going.

There are many fitness instructors who say that in order to get the best out of any workout one should have an intention for their body. IF they move with purpose they will achieve more than if they simply go with the motion. Simply doing a movement without putting any thought into it will only cause a person to get little out of the experience.

This is also true for clothes that people wear all the time. It is important to know what needs to be done or where one has to go before making the right choice. Even though some might say that it is what's on the inside that counts, people see the outside first. So the way a person dresses every day sends a certain impression on others which affects the experience and purpose one has in life.

In order to see the connection between two seemingly unrelated things, one has to go deeper than the surface. By studying the basic things of life, one can see how everything is connected in some way. This is one of the best ways to grow and experience life.
