People ask me what an Inspiration Officer does. Today, I sketched a suggested layout for a line sheet for our new scarf line at Nature’s Atelier. Other days, I co-host Mindfulness Workshops with Erika, the founder and photographer.
Inspiration is essential; as crucial as it is, it’s relatively simple to find if you know how to seek it out. Can a scarf be inspirational? We think yes!
Being cheerful can begin with a smile, a gentile thought, or a colorful scarf. Each scarf in our new line has an inspired name that represents a quality that you may want to have for yourself or share with others. Like a smile that flows from one person to another, the feeling of cheerfulness or kindness can also spread from one smile to another.
Erika’s photography captures nature’s beauty, and when infused with an intentional quality, such as compassion, tranquility, or transformation, meaning is added to the wearing of a scarf. Imagine wearing and sharing these qualities as you move through your day. You may feel empowered to exhibit your quality more than usual today, and as a result, you may experience a positive shift in the tone of your day.
