Formal Friday 1-24-20
Happy Friday everyone!
I’m changing the Friday structure ever-so-slightly today. Also, I am going to be “offline” this week because I’m doing a meditation course in Nepal. Lucky for you, you’ll get to read from some of my dearest and nearest humans :)
Quick Friday outline:
i. Quote to ponder
ii. Product and content recommendations (think good Christmas presents and/or evolving your mind
I.
“It is said that
If you want to know
What you were doing the past,
Look at your body now;
If you want to know what will happen
To you in the future,
Look at what
Your mind is doing now.”
the Dalai Lama

Product recommendation: Color-Tinted Glasses
I bought my first pair of tinted glasses at Bonnaroo in 2016. They were orange and they changed my life. Since, I’ve gotten 7-10 pair.
Tinted glasses have the ability to dramatically alter your mood by (literally) altering your perspective.
I use different colors based on the season and what mood I want to conjure.
Orange is fantastic for fall or a grey summer day. It intensifies green but nullifies blue.
Yellow is prob the best all-around. Big pink fan too- ya know, “rose-tinted glasses.”
Vintage frames has a pretty good selection. I haven’t been able to find the exact pairs that I want after all this time, so Scott Diekema and I will be creating our own in 2020 and will make them available to you :)
Scott may go deeper on this topic for y’all, but I’ll leave it at this for now.
Book recommendation: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Fire. Harry Potter is my go-to bedtime story. An hour of fiction before bed is way better and healthier than Ambien or Melatonin.
Song recommendation: Suave by Jerry Rivera ❤️
Apparel recommendation: Buck Mason T-Shirt
Great basic t-shirts. I’m just seeing they raised their prices $10 which is a lil sad. But $35 is still solid I suppose. I wear them quite often.
