Challenge Accepted: Safia

“It’s an industry in which I can make a difference.”

In high school, Safia was interested in science – specifically chemistry – and was always looking to enter the healthcare field. The pharmaceutical area was the perfect way for her to combine these two passions.

“I need scrubs that allow me to look good as well as maintain a good sense of professionalism.”

Being on her feet all day, Safia needs to comfortable in what she’s wearing. It’s important that her scrubs stretch with her as she bends and crouches, as well as keeping up with her pace particularly when she’s moving between the dispensary and the ward.

“Yoga helps me to alleviate stress and it helps me to return to myself after a long day of serving others.”

With her pharmacy job being very demanding, Safia finds that yoga has helped her with maintaining a cool and calm demeanour while at work. Through her yoga, she’s developed the ability to stay present, as well as improving general fitness and building her strength and flexibility. These physical benefits translate into functional movements in her everyday life.

“I’m passionate about using my body as a form of creativity.”

Yoga allows Safia to use her body as a tool of expression through movement. The kind of creative movement that she gets from yoga helps her to move better during her shifts at work.
 

“The scrubs felt great on the mat today. They’ve passed the NNT Dare to Wear Challenge, and I’d definitely wear them again.”

After a successful session on the yoga mat, Safia said that the NNT scrubs stood up to the challenge. With a comfortable fit that conformed to her body, as well as fashionable look, she confidently stated that they could be taken from the pharmacy to the mat with ease.
