That special something in the air at this time of year definitely indicates that autumn is upon us. A crisp breeze, crackling logs on the fire and the bristling colourful leaves rustling under foot. The amazing array of colours and picturesque scenes inspire many.
Autumn brings tradition with Harvest Festivals, dressing up ready to trick or treat with Halloween and all to be followed by the thrill and excitement of Guy Fawkes’ Bonfire Night.
The perfect excuse to sneak a hot chocolate (topped with marshmallows and cream!!!), the amazing aromas of scented candles, snuggles under the duvet, the return of fluffy onesies and the joy of hearty comforting food makes autumn a dream.
As with everything in life, there are always draw backs and in Autumn it has to be the start of the return of ice-blocks for feet.
Our clever bodies have an inbuilt mechanism that keeps our vital internal organs at the right temperature. Our bodies are designed to shut off circulation to our extremities in order to direct the warmer blood to the inner organs to maintain that essential temperature. Studies have proven that women have the best shut down body mechanism and in the very cold blood flow can reduce by 99%.
Don’t shiver just yet. There are so many cosy warm, thermal, layered and insulted socks on the market today and advances are continually being made into fabrics, designs and different types of socks for different activities. The also come in variety of colours, lengths and styles.
In the studio is no exception. It is always harder to strip down to your workout clothes at this time of year and although you probably never noticed the floor temperature a couple of months ago it now resonates a whole new chilling feeling.
The View Studio are here to rescue you. Understanding that anything from welly socks to ski socks will keep your little piggy’s warm, they are not suitable for Barre, Pilates or Yoga. We introduce you to ‘The View’ Studio Grip Socks. The teal grippy dots on the bottom, help you to stick your position whether on the mat, at the barre or holding asanas on the floor. Made from a soft cotton blend they are the perfect essential accessory to your autumn kit bag.
Enjoy everything great about autumn and keep those little tootsies toasty this year.
