"I fully believe in the power of positive words. . . . I’ve begun a morning meditation practice and tried to introduce affirming, positive words or mantras into my day, just like I would in a yoga practice. I was recently introduced to the LA-based line Good hYOUman, which is like the apparel version of my morning mantra. The line offers activewear and everyday tees with a positive message on each piece, and while there are more fit-specific messages like 'Run Faster,' 'Move, Move, Move,' 'Just Do You,' and 'What you sweat is what you get,' some of my favorites say things like 'Thankful,' 'Give this world everything you’ve got,' and 'Cereal is life,' (a rogue addition but I’m feeling it).
I’m wearing my new favorite shirt a lot lately. It’s perfect for the gym but can be styled with everyday looks, too, making for an awesome transitional piece. The front says 'Hope is Dope' ($44). I love adding this simple dose of joy into my every day and into my gym look." — Dominique Astorino, assistant editor, Fitness
