TOGETHER WITH DINKS ACTIVEWEAR

¡Hola Isla Flow friend!. 🌴☀️

Welcome to your lifestyle and events newsletter in Puerto Rico, delivered in 5 minutes or less, lovingly crafted by your friends Alicia and Justin. ☺️

Happy Monday! 😃 💖 Now the school year really begins. This first transition week is always tough as we all adjust. This applies whether you have kids or are a kid yourself because the traffic, the congestion, the time we wake up—everything changes. You got this!

I’m in Orlando for less than 48 hours handling some matters, then back to buckle down and produce for the next few weeks before heading to Asia. ✈️

On another note, do you feel like your possessions are suffocating you? 👛 You’re not alone. Today, we’re sharing how the art of having less can transform your life, from freeing your mind to filling your wallet. Get ready for an adventure that will change your relationship with things. (I wrote it in English today but promise to send it in Spanish soon.)

Let’s get it!

🧘‍♀️ Breathe and Flow

It’s a day to set the intention and tone for the week. An intention is a conscious decision on how you want to “approach” your day and/or week, focusing on your mindset, behaviors, and goals.

That said, I have two intentions this week: SELF-CARE and OPTIMISM. What about yours? 🤔

In the intro, we mentioned the art of having less and how to improve your relationship with material things. Learn some tools to get started, such as the 90-90 rule, “Love it or leave it,” and the domino effect of having less. Click here to see all the tools and the full article. 🌚
