BuDhaGirl: Where Fashion Meets Science
You can’t believe the push back I receive when I mention that BuDhaGirl - a fashion and lifestyle brand - has a scientific board. Why would we need that?
Simple. The BuDhaGirl Scientific Advisory Board (BSAB) is there to validate. The BSAB is comprised of world-renowned scientists, all with connections to neurology and psychology. Their years of work and research have taught them that our brain is the final frontier.
Our board believes in preserving our brain’s health as we age, or after trauma or injury. Western medicine is today using imaging techniques to uncover the mysteries of the brain and scientists are marveling at the complexity of our mind’s universe.
When speaking to our scientists, no matter what their specialty might be, there is a commonality. The BSAB promotes contemplative practice. They have studied ancient contemplative practices from meditation to prayer, and the benefits that arise for our mind, and yes, our body.
When I was able to tell the BuDhaGirl story to the scientists individually, I was often received with what I call the “I totally get it” moment. A moment of complete understanding, eye-to-eye contact and a reassuring head nod. It is as if the body takes control and says: YES, of course that’s right. I’m in.
I encourage all BuDhaGirls and guys to take a moment to read about these amazing trailblazing scientists. They are passionate, driven, brilliant people who understand the importance of giving. Giving to yourself to maintain brain health so you can lead a joyful, healthy and giving life.
