What would you be up to this National Hat Day?
Why and how to celebrate it?
If ever you’re wondering about these things, I’m here to share some enlightenment with you.
Flashback to 3,000 BC, the first hat appeared on a mural of a tomb in Thebes. A man on the mural wore a straw hat.
Since then hats are worn for different reasons – protection, social status and religious rites.
Hats have evolved as part of fashion and self-expression.
The National Hat Day has become a holiday every January 15.
No one knows who started this holiday for hats. Even so, I still love National Hat Day anyway.
Why wouldn’t I? I love hats! I’m a hat person (No pun-intended). Wearing comfy, cute and stylish hats make me happy.
Are you a hat-lover too? Who’s with me? Raise your hats! Join me in this hat filled moment.
Here’s the deal, the National Hat Day is for wearing hats! So take out your fancy, cute, rare, weird or crazy hats out of the closet.
Wear them all throughout the day and have different hats for every selfie.
You can go as far as having a groupfie with all of your friends or loved ones wearing hats.
Maybe give hats as a gift or discover your hat style here.
Plot twist on a deeper level, wearing hats on National Hat Day means honoring and being grateful of our head and mind – our consciousness.
Since our head is where the Crown Chakra is, what perfect way to celebrate National Hat day than to activate, balance and cleanse it.
Chakra is a center of swirling energy or energy wheel in our body.
It is the center of bodily process, thoughts and emotions.
The Crown Chakra is the energy center for happiness, trust, positivity, creativity or inspiration, inner self, devotion and Divine connection.
Tap into brilliance – the Crown Chakra. It is inner genius, creativity and Divine guidance. Photo by cosmicart on PixabayIn celebration of National Hat Day, these steps are to activate, balance and cleanse your Crown Chakra:
1.Put your Mozart on.
To create masterpieces, listen to brilliant music. Photo by rkit on PixabayListen to Classical music by Mozart. Studies proved that classical music increases intelligence and creativity.
Under a powerful microscope or tool, frozen water exposed to such genre turned into snowflake like structures.
True enough, I wrote more poetry and finished writing my first Fantasy novel while Mozart’s music played in the background.
Listening to his classical pieces helps to activate your Crown Chakra with creative inspiration.
2. Live out your Artsy-ness.

This will activate your Crown Chakra with wisdom.
4. Splash in some Violet in your Style.
