About Juil

Juil has a full line of women’s and men’s sandals that are made of premium leather with sole conductors that connect the wearer to the earth.  If you haven’t seen Juil sandals before check them out at www.juil.com

Juil is often asked “What do those conductors do?” It’s actually pretty simple.  The conductors connect you with the greatest source of energy on earth: the earth itself.  What does that mean?  Well, let’s start from the ground up: the earth has an endless supply of negatively charged electrons.  Basically, the earth is an enormous magnet.  Electrons abundant on the earth’s surface look to bond with positively-charged molecules.  When this bonding occurs, those positively-charged molecules are neutralized.

Only Juil’s exclusive sole conductors:

~ Keep wearers connected with the earth

~ Absorb and discharge natural energies

~ Keep EMF exposure in check

~ May reduce inflammation and increase energy levels

~ Make their sandals like no other shoe you’ll ever wear

Juil keeps you connected to the earth with every step you take in a way no ordinary shoe does.  Their sandals combine comfort, style, and rebalanced energy.  Because we’re all about your wellbeing.

Do more than walk. Connect.

Be sure to check out their new shoe created in conjunction with Shiva Rea (pictured above), launching next week!

These limited edition sandals will each come with a hand-signed card. They make for the perfect holiday gift – something to use every day that is also very special – Juil will not release these shoes again once they are gone!

Yoga invites us to seize upon the particular opportunity of what it means to be YOU and then create the self of your imagination. You become the person you practice being, and so at any moment you can step into the self you want to become. Put that self into practice!

Don’t miss this inspiring and empowering workshop with Nancy Kate Williams at Om Time Yoga on Saturday from 3pm – 5:30pm!

Courage : to be yourSelf! There is such power in practicing in the collective, weaved together in a tapestry of experience beautifully colored by the uniqueness of each individual. As we practice, the way we express a pose will not look like the expression of another. Be authentic in your offering of the asanas, meet yourSelf right where you are each day, pull back to your center and embrace the truth, the beauty and the strength that lies within. Access the courage to offer your unique gifts to the world around you. There is only one you, so be courageously you! Shine brightly and radiantly because no matter what someone else offers, you have something that is special and one-of-a-kind! In this workshop we will engage Conscious Flow, using alignment principles in a vinyasa style class as we play with arm balances as a way to teach us to root down in order to rise up and pull to our center in order to offer out into the world around us!
