Namaste~Heather Giveaway!!!

August 7, 2010

As promised a week or so ago, I’m having a giveaway for my 100th Post.  Honestly, I think this post is 97 or 98, but close enough.  I don’t have the opportunity to write as much these days, but today I do, so here goes . . .

Drum roll please . . .

Welcome to the Namaste~Heather Giveaway!!!

And what would you think I’d give away?

Items pertaining to yoga, mindfulness and green living of course!

In this giveaway you will win four or five items.  The reason I say four or five is because three of the items were donated by three friends who have Etsy shops.  I also want for them to be able to enter the drawing and if they win, I will withhold the item they donated for a SECOND GIVEAWAY!  We’ll just have to see what happens!

Here is what is included in the giveaway . . .

ITEM #1 – Yancy at 5Seed donated an all natural Chocolate Mint Lip Balm.

I love 5Seed products!  I have several items, including this one!  Here is the description:

This delicious-smelling lip balm (our most popular) is made of all natural ingredients – absolutely NO PRESERVATIVES have been added. We also do not use flavorings, or tints in our products. With all the information being spread about the dangers in traditional cosmetics, it is safer AND more environmentally-friendly to use all natural cosmetics – especially on your lips!

Cocoa butter and beeswax offer your lips intense moisture as well as protection from wind, sun, heat, and cold. Peppermint essential oil is refreshing and yet restful. This lip balm smells like a peppermint patty (which is why everyone loves it so much!)

Visit her Etsy shop at www.5seed.etsy.com.  You will love it!

ITEM #2 – LeLa, of Naturallylela left a comment on my blog some time ago, offering me a free yoga mat spray.  She sells two kinds in her Etsy shop.  After contacting me, I asked if she would be willing to send a second one for this giveaway, and she agreed!  This all-organic yoga mat spray is called Sun Salute.

I am currently using her other mat spray, called Moon Madra.  Sun Salute Mat Spray is composed of the following ingredients:

ITEM #3 – Lauren of SaltSays was one of my first blog friends.  She doesn’t write a yoga blog, but she is a very funny and sweet yogini.  She recently opened her own Etsy shop and I bought one of her first (maybe THE first) items from her shop.  They are drop earrings with Namaste on one and the OM symbol on the other.  I love them.
Lauren offered to make a pair of earrings for this giveaway and they are soooo cute!
I apologize for the picture quality here!  These earrings are lotus flowers cut into silver square drops under a pretty green crystal.  Lauren has lots of other beautiful jewelry in her Etsy shop called love|salt.  Visit her shop at www.lovesalt.etsy.com.
ITEM #4 – from Yours Truly, me!  I also opened an Etsy shop, which is currently VERY sparse.  I am offering a pair of earrings from my shop as well.  They are yoga inspired with all of the colors of the rainbow to represent our seven main chakras.
Here is the description of the earrings I placed on my shop page:

These playful earrings were inspired by my love of yoga and wonder of the the chakras.  Most physical forms of yoga are known as Hatha Yoga. “Ha” stands for sun, while “Tha” stands for moon. Opposites. Yoga is about balance.

One earring has a sun, while the other, a moon. Crystal beads of each color of the rainbow correspond to our seven main chakras which run along the central channel of the spine. Each of these chakras relate to the colors and a specific area of our lives.

Red – security
Orange – creativity
Yellow – power
Green – love
Blue – having a voice, speaking our truth
Indigo – witnessing self
Violet – connection to a higher power

ITEM #5 – a yoga book!  Yoga Bliss by Tara Fraser.  It’s a sweet little book that can help any beginner get started.  If you are a seasoned yogi, it will be a new book to add to your collection!
