With June heating up, it's time we all make an effort to sit back, relax and kick our feet up to read! Whether it's a weeknight or the weekend, you're traveling or at home, we typically like to unwind each day with a really good book. We thought we'd share 4 short, classic reads that are stocked & sold on the bookshelves in our two flagship stores in Nantucket and Aspen.
We believe in the power of these 4 stories. In fact, we find our strength and Truth so much that our gang rereads them every single year for renewed inspiration and paralleled footing in the central vision for our brand. We highly recommend you find your favorite spot -- a beach, hammock or reclining chair -- and explore these 4 classic reads this June.

3) The Four Agreements - Miguel Ruiz
"The world is very beautiful and very wonderful. Life can be very easy when love is your way of life. You can be loving all the time. This is your choice. You may not have a reason to love, but you can love because to love makes you so happy. Love in action only produces happiness. Love will give you inner peace. It will change your perception of everything." - Miguel Ruiz
4) The Seat of the Soul - Gary Zukav
The Seat of the Soul encourages you become the authority in your own life. It will change the way you see the world, interact with other people, and understand your own actions and motivations. Beginning with evolution, Gary Zukav takes you on a penetrating exploration of the new phase humanity has entered: we are evolving from a species that understands power as the ability to manipulate and control—external power—into a species that understands power as the alignment of the personality with the soul--authentic power. Our evolution requires each of us to make the values of the soul our own: harmony, cooperation, sharing, and reverence for Life. Using his scientist’s eye and philosopher’s heart, Zukav shows us how to participate fully in this evolution, enlivening our everyday activities and all of our relationships with meaning and purpose.
“For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. You receive from the world what you give to the world.” - Gary Zukav
