| Why use a Yoga Mat
Yoga mats ensure safety and comfort – they give a non-slip surface and protect against cold and hard floors. We have always recommended having your own yoga mat, even if your gym or yoga studio provides them. Not only because of the obvious hygiene benefits, but also because having your own mat allows you to have your own personal space to practice yoga. Owning your own mat offers many advantages, and the knowledge that you can unroll your mat at any time can encourage you to do yoga more often - at home, on holiday or whenever the mood takes you. It may encourage and help you to develop and deepen your practice. Your yoga mat may take a short time in order to reach its maximum grip and stickiness. Yoga mats and the environment
Who would have thought that your choice of yoga mat could have an impact on your health and our environment? Well it can! We all want to improve our health but it’s not easy to know what’s best - we’re bombarded with confusing information about the effects of chemicals on our health and environment but what do you do with this information? Let’s face it, it’s pretty tricky to live a pure life these days, free of chemicals, pollution etc…in fact downright impossible, no matter where or how you live! We believe that the solution is to do what we can, bit-by-bit, knowing that with every little bit will make a difference! Most yoga mats available today contain some nasty chemicals - Phthalates, AZO, Phenol and heavy metals - which we now know are not great for us, or our environment. Thankfully, there is an alternative! Take a look our yoga mats which are all free of Phthalates, AZO, Phenol and heavy metals. What to do with your old yoga mat – you can be creative as you like with this one! Contact your local homeless shelter, your favourite old mat could bring so much comfort to another person’s life. Maybe donate it to a local yoga charity, use it as a non-slip surface at home between rugs and wooden floorboards, as protection under pot plants. The possibilities are endless – let us know if you come up with a good one, we’d love to hear from you. History of the Yoga Mat
The favoured yoga mats of the ancient yogi were the skin of the tiger. Fortunately for us, and for tigers, things have changed since then. The 60’s saw the introduction of the non-slip sticky yoga mat, but it wasn’t much more than carpet underlay until today. Today you can practice on mats in a multitude of colours, patterns and even shapes. The agoy yoga mat is a joy, it is a little thicker than most standard mats, and yet very light and easy to roll and keep clean. It is gently curved at the corners, soft and pleasing to the touch.
