New York: Satya Sample Sale?

lotussatya.jpgThe weather is finally snapping like it should. Which of course has me accelerating ahead into a holidaze. Mental gift and wish lists are being made. Travel plans being plotted. And I’m already scheming which beautiful piece of Satya Jewelry will go to which recipient (including me, of course).

Normally I can afford only a rare piece of this “yoga-inspired” jewelry—a lotus ring here, a sparkly pendant there. But Satya’s annual sample sale (read: insane, yet friendly cluster-f#$%) allows for an abundance of riches to rain on many income brackets.

Though I just called today and was told by a nice woman that they haven’t set a date yet for the sale, she did say it would probably be happening either the last week in November or the first in December. And she said to make sure I was on their email list (I am, natch) and that there would be a week’s notice.

So, all of you yoginis who like your baubles to reflect your practice and hold some meaning, sign up now so you’ll know the second they set off the starting om. Click here and scroll down.

And definitely go here or visit one of their three Manhattan locations (the Nolita outpost is connected to the Golden Bridge studio for a two-fer experience) if you haven’t checked out their lovely, eclectically spiritual trinkets—Buddha pendants, om bracelets, garnet earrings, tree of life necklaces. Each one comes with a description of the symbol and materials. For example, a lovely pair of earrings is explained thus: “Invoking the energy of the cosmos, these cherry quartz drops help to provide clarity to our thoughts, while the pure silver beads cool and calm the mind.”

It might be a whole lot of brilliant marketing, but I really do like the idea of wearing reminders to stay peaceful and in my heart. And Satya nails the organic-yet-elegant vibe in such gorgeous ways. If you won’t be in NYC during the soon-to-be-announced sale, they often have a mini sample sale of their website.

Plus, a percentage of sales goes to children’s yoga endeavors through the Satya Foundation.

What's your favorite piece of Satya?
