If you exercise and love Yoga you will love this new find, as I have come to love it! Comfort for your feet, back and butt are about to occur.
It is very hard to find QUALITY products that don’t break down with use, as I expect to lavishly live out loud with whatever I buy for at least a year if not more. I want durable products that don’t fall apart after a few uses, and I also want them to look pretty. I am a girl in every sense of the word and I like my things to to in some way represent who I am whether with designs or color, hence the search for durable and function-able YOGA items has been my latest project. I also have a fond appreciation for a product that I found from a company that is basic, earthy and natural and very respectful of our environment, just like the practice and study of YOGA. Lavishly live fitness out loud with this great product that I use in my own home and I just wanted to share with you!
Yoga Mat
I have to watch everything that comes into my home because I have one child that has severe latex allergies and a few mats out there in the retail world have LATEX in them. Once products come into my home all the kids try them out! I am quickly finding out that not all yoga mats are made to withstand being stood on, sat on and stretched on, as a matter of fact some don’t last very long at all and a few are constructed almost entirely of LATEX. In my quest for great products and a great company that sustains our wonderful environment I have found BAREFOOT YOGA Company.
This mat is for EVERY type of YOGA. Yoga class on this mat is a dream but I also using it when I am working out with my Medicine Ball or doing lunges because it is that comfortable under my feet and back!
This is the signature HYBRID mat of the Barefoot Yoga Company. The mat is Eco-friendly and the mat is good for the environment,. Do you know what the ‘skeleton’ of the mat is actually called? It is called a mesh scrim and the mesh scrim on the Hybrid Eco Mat is made from 100% recycled polyester which is what makes the mat strong and what makes it durable. Hybrid Mats do not contain heavy metals, and when they are manufactured their production is completely non-toxic and LATEX free. When the pacakged mat arrives, the wrap that the mat comes wrapped in is created from an Eco-friendly poly resin and is completely bio-degradable which means that it will break down once put into a landfill. Yoga is meant to balance your body, mind and soul, and while all this is occurring it is nice to know that the earth will remain balanced because the company that provides your YOGA mats is environmentally savvy and earth conscious!’
Care For The Yoga Mat
I wipe my mat with a cloth( I used a cotton cloth, they recommend a terry cloth) before I used it in order to make the mat more traction-friendly. The mat is not machine washable. There are many to choose from. I am simply inspired to use this mat just because the color is so pleasant to look at, just go ahead and laugh I know that is a lame reason to use something. The feel of the mat: soft, and cushiony, if you want to know its texture. My feet love my mat!
