happy earth day! there is no planet b.

one of the many things this pandemic has taught us is that if we collectively slow down it will give the planet time to heal itself.

"They found that emission levels decreased significantly during the pandemic, with the steepest fall occurring during the week in mid-March when most provinces instituted sweeping public health restrictions and the Canada-U.S. land border was closed to most non-essential northbound travel.

The reasons for this are straightforward. The lockdowns and similar measures meant more people were staying at home instead of getting in their cars. Xuelin Tian, the study's lead author, said in a press release that traffic congestion during that first week was 75 per cent lower in Montreal and 69 per cent lower in Toronto than it was during the comparable week of 2019. With fewer vehicles on the road, carbon dioxide emissions were reduced and the air was cleaner." - CTV News

‘Metta’ is a word in the Pali language that has been translated variously as boundless friendliness, general benevolence or goodwill, and even loving kindness.

Associated with a type of meditation practice in which one silently recites a set of phrases that are designed to open the heart and cultivate a loving and kind attitude towards oneself and towards others. The phrases can be simple and recited anywhere and at anytime.

This practice was the inspiration for our mindful intention tees. Give yourself the intention of peace and towards everyone you encounter through your day.

May You Be Loved
May You Be Happy
May You Be Peaceful

🐥 Life can be wild and crazy with little ones in your life! 🐥Mindful parenting calls you to respond to your child vs. react. Seems like a simple enough concept but try putting it into action with two toddlers on the loose.

Managing our own emotions and behaviours is the key to teaching kids how to manage theirs. It is the reason airlines tell us to put our oxygen masks on before you can put on your child’s mask. You need to be regulated before you can model regulation for your child. When you’re stressed out, exhausted, and overwhelmed, you can’t be available for your child.

Mindful parenting does not mean being a “perfect parent” and is not something you can fail at. You may forget to be mindful, but the second you realize you are distracted, it is an opportunity to make a different choice – the choice to be present.

Being a mindful parent means that you pay attention to what you’re feeling. It doesn't mean that you won't get angry or upset. Of course you will experience difficult emotions, but acting on them mindlessly and reacting to the situation is what compromises our parenting.

May you be peaceful.

It's a ✨ HOM X TYNT STUDIO ✨ Collab! Our friends over at are about celebrating women of colour.

If this pandemic has taught us anything it's that nothing is permanent. Holding on to expectations of a particular outcome can stunt your growth. Take a moment to ask yourself, is this feeling draining me of my energy, and if the answer is yes... sis...

Wherever you go, there you are. This is a reminder that wherever you go in life ✨ YOU ARE HERE ✨ you are home, all you need is within you.

An anxious mind can sometimes make you feel like you're all over the place. ✨ YOU ARE HERE ✨ grounds you into the present moment, consider that you may be worrying about

Also how cute will this shirt be when you're back to travelling the world and sitting on that beach or climbing that mountain and declare that ✨ YOU ARE HERE ✨

🦋 Patience demonstrates that we understand and accept that somethings things have to unfold in their own time. We understand that a butterfly needs to emerge from it's chrysalis when it's ready, rushing this process doesn't benefit the butterfly. The butterfly can only emerge in it's own time, that the process cannot be hurried.🦋

Whenever you’re in a situation and begin to experience impatience, see this as an opportunity to practice mindfulness of thoughts. This means becoming fascinated by the kind of thoughts that are popping into your head. Are they all true? What effect are the thoughts having on your emotional state? What are the thoughts all about?

🥰 Sunday snuggles in our super soft and sustainable embroidered sweaters. Remind yourself what you are grateful for.

Gratitude is so important to a mindfulness practice and your overall mental health. Do you ever feel like those negative and intrusive thoughts are just so loud? They chime like an auto response?

Bringing your attention to what you are grateful for in that moment (doesn't have to be major can simply be grateful for that cup of coffee this AM) you can challenge those negative thoughts and replace them with gratitude over time that will be come your new auto response.
