What is YOJO?
YOJO means being mindful of improving your health, and striving to achieve a healthier body and mind through self-care. By listening to your body, you can become more aware of the root of your troubles, and improve your mental and physical well-being in daily life by being conscious of what you eat, ways you spend your time, and living in harmony with the seasons in a way that best suits your constitution.
YOJO DESIGN’S CONCEPT
