I LOVE the name of your Etsy shop - it's so clever! How did you get started? Is this a hobby, your full-time job, or something in between? This whole thing started in February of last year, when I began really deepening my yoga practice and starting to assistant teach. When I would be really sweating my arse off in the middle of a practice, these thoughts would bubble up that really resonated with me that I would repeat in my head - they'd come from the theme of the practice, or wherever my mind wandered to that day. Anyhow, these thoughts meant a lot to me, so after the practice, I would run to my car and jot them down in a notebook that I kept in my glove box.
One day I thought, "Hey dummy, if these thoughts mean something to you, maybe they'll mean something to other people too!" So I started a blog as a dumping ground for these thoughts, where I would post phrases in simple typographic layouts. It started to really gain traction, so I set some goals (making social media pages, creating products, having an art show, etc). But yes, that's where the name came from. Little moments of AHA! that occurred whilst coated in sweat.
