Ancient Life Magick: Fashion from the Thrift Store

Fashion from the Thrift Store

I confess I'm absolutely addicted to thrift stores! It saves a ton of money and is also a smarter choice to help the environment. If you really take your time and look carefully you can find practically new designer fashions for a fraction of what you would pay in regular department stores. Some of the things I've found over the years were absolute treasures - especially home decor. As one who tries to make reusing and recycling a way of life, it's just a better way to go.

I found a few videos that contain tips about how to look good in thrift store clothing. Hopefully these will be helpful and serve as inspiration to think differently about how you shop.

Imagine traveling back through the sands of time to ages past, to eras when ancient ancestors walked upon the Earth, leaving footprints and clues for us to follow. What secrets did they hold? Many ancient cultures held the Earth in reverence and knew how to live in harmony and balance with nature. They relied on herbal remedies and other techniques for healing and well being. They were creative in their artistry and techniques for producing various goods and other items, WITHOUT the aid of electric machines. Necessity truly was the mother of invention.

Fast forward to our 21st century world, where our technology would have seemed like magic to the ancients. But are we really so much better off than they were? We live in a time where our air and water are polluted and stress governs our lives on a daily basis. While we've succeeded in curing some diseases, new ones are constantly emerging. Things like obesity and mental health issues are on the rise which only add to the stress that exacerbates and compromises our health even more.

So what can we do about it? Might we find some of the answers we seek by looking at the past and learning about some of the ancient techniques and healing methods practiced by the ancestors? These are by no means cure-alls for what ails us, but some may at least relieve stress and help us to feel better. It's true that much of the knowledge of the ancients was destroyed over many centuries but bits and pieces did manage to survive and were passed down through the ages and many are re-discovering some of the wisdom of ancient practices.

While technology is useful to make our lives easier, we shouldn't rely on it exclusively. All of our creative and spiritual needs must be met as well. The videos and articles posted here may offer an introduction to a different way of life for those who wish for change. Living more simply and taking time to enjoy the gifts that nature provides for us will go a long way to enriching our state of being.

Just a disclaimer here: I'm not here to promote any particular videos, person(s) or channels. The opinions expressed in the videos are those of the You Tubers and not necessarily my own but if I see a video that I feel is helpful I'll post it here for informational purposes only. I will include information about all sorts of topics, from the practical to the metaphysical. Hopefully it will be helpful to some of you. Life is our greatest journey and we should do our best to live it fully with intention and purpose and love. Here's to the journey......Namaste.
