ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The artwork centres around a connection to Country, deep-listening and the journey we take in experiencing a one-ness with nature and a deeper connection to mind, body, spirit. A connection to Country is a key element of Aboriginal culture and spirituality, and has contributed to Aboriginal people living sustainably for thousands of years on this land.

The colours of the middle and end circles represent ochre, and the interconnectedness with Country.

The larger centre circle is a place of focus and the "ZONE" in a cultural context. This is often referred to as deep-listening or walking quietly on Country.

The blue lines on the artwork represent a river and the flowing of positive energy. The river also symbolises our journey in life. There are times when the river flows effortlessly, but there are also times when the water needs to find a way through the rocks and around the resistance. The sounds of the river speak to us and guide us. As we listen to the river, we hear our ancestors and we feel the energy of the river.

The circle artwork designs in the river represent the lessons we learn on our journey and the important people in our lives who have guided us.

The artwork also reminds us to be mindful of our impact on Country. By living more connected to the environment, more connected to Country and more connected to culture, we create a greater awareness and deeper spiritual connection.

MINIMAL WASTE
ZONE by Lydia eco-conscious packaging is kind to the Earth and plastic-free. All of their products are packaged and sent in plastic-free packaging. Your yoga block is wrapped in bio-degradable recycled kraft paper to keep unnecessary packaging to an absolute minimum.

SUSTAINABLE + NATURAL
Cork products are recyclable and reusable making them sustainable and environmentally friendly.
The cork tree (or Quercus suber) is the only type of tree that can have its bark removed without damaging the tree.
The cork bark is harvested every 7 to 10 years and by harvesting the bark, it actually makes the cork grow back stronger and thicker so the tree is able to photosynthesise more carbon dioxide. Each year cork oak forests are estimated to retain around 14 million tonnes of carbon dioxide. This is a huge tick for the environment and is why cork is considered one of the most sustainable forestry production practices in the world.
Cork trees can also store a large amount of water in their root systems, which helps keep them hardy and prevent soil erosion where they are planted.
