Aloha (it means goodby and hello)

A few years ago, I took a Tai Chi class. I didn't stick with it, but something the instructor said stuck with me. He said that a move in one direction first requires a slight move in the opposite direction. This is true in the specific arena of Tai Chi movements, but also in life in general. Runners gain momentum by drawing their bodies back before they bolt forward. A cat nap or 10 minutes with a cup of tea and some relaxing music helps you be more productive on a busy day. I think too of the worm that enters its cocoon in order that it can become a butterfly. Sometimes you have to go backward so that you can go forward.

So, with that in mind, I am taking the summer off. I will be back with a vengeance on September 19th. If anyone needs to get a hold of me, I will be checking emails and Etsy convos.

When I set up Ahimsa Fibers last summer, I named it Ahimsa FIBERS and not Ahimsa YARNS because I had a lot of ideas for other fiber and textile items that I wanted to offer. Part of the reason I am taking time off is to delve into some of those ideas. So, when I open back up in September, I hope to have a wider variety of eco-friendly and animal-friendly fiber and textile items. So, please do swing back by as summer starts to fade.

Have a wonderful summer!

Peace
