E’s Element is constantly working to empower people to feel good and express themselves. While developing confidence, especially when it comes to your style, being mindful can help cultivate a healthy, sustainable mindset. Being mindful feels different for everyone but overall centres being present and fully engaged in the present moment, without judgment or distraction. We believe mindfulness can be applied to everyday activities, such as getting dressed. Rather than getting ready every day without much thought, try incorporating mindfulness into your routine, to support your overall wellness and self-care.
Organize Your Space with Items You Love
The first step to incorporating mindfulness into getting dressed is to start with a clean and organized space. This can mean decluttering your closet and drawers, getting rid of items that no longer fit or serve a purpose, and organizing your clothing in a way that makes it easy to find what you need. By creating a calm and organized space, you can reduce stress and anxiety that can come from feeling disorganized.

Be Intentional
Once you have a clean and organized space, the next step is to approach getting dressed with intention. Instead of grabbing whatever is closest or easiest to wear, take a few moments to think about what you want to wear and why. Consider what kind of mood or energy you want to embody for the day, and choose clothing that reflects that. By focusing on your own preferences and needs, you can cultivate a sense of self-awareness and self-care.
Be Present
As you select your clothing, pay attention to how the fabric feels against your skin and how it makes you feel. Choose items that are comfortable and make you feel good, rather than just following fashion trends. A huge part of our philosophy is creating products that are high quality. Our limited athleisurewear is hand cut and sewn with fabrics that you can be comfortable in.
As you get dressed, try to stay present and focused on the task at hand. Avoid multitasking or letting your mind wander to other things. Instead, focus on the physical sensations of putting on clothing and the way your body moves and feels.
Finally, take a few moments to appreciate your appearance and the effort you have put into your physical care. Recognize that the way you present yourself to the world is a reflection of how you feel about yourself and can impact your overall wellness. By taking care of your physical appearance and presenting yourself in a way that makes you feel good, you can boost your confidence and sense of self-worth.
Incorporating mindfulness into getting dressed may seem like a small and insignificant change, but it can have a big impact on overall wellness. By approaching this everyday task with intention and mindfulness, you can reduce stress and anxiety, cultivate self-awareness and self-care, and boost your confidence and sense of self-worth. Give it a try and see how it can benefit your daily routine and overall well-being.
