MINDFUL PRACTICES
Being able to make conscious decisions about apparel purchasing practices is not always an easy task, but the Mindful Mami will instill tools and resources to help make ethical and environmentally aware decisions. The goal is to teach a lifestyle of modest consumption, and minimizing material items for our children, in order to create awareness of waste and the impact on the environment. With these tactics we teach the idea of living with less, to experience more.
