Few things in nature are as gracious and powerful as the elephant. For us, the elephant represents both physical and mental strength. Yoga is in its essence a way to sharpen both your body and mind. An unsharpened mind, much like the wild elephant, can run havoc on its surrounding. A sharpened mind, on the other hand, can be directed after one's wishes and made to destroy all obstacles in its way. The practice of yoga never stops, the sharpening of the mind is a lifelong quest. Let this elephant motif serve as a reminder of this.
The surface of our yoga mats are made from natural and non slippery organic cork that is a unique non toxic material with its own anti microbial effects.
Size: 178cm x 61cm x 3.2mm
Care instructions:
Please take care and rinse the mat before first use to avoid smudging the potential excess dyes on to the blank cork.
Storing moist organic materials will allow them to decompose. Therefore always allow for the mat to dry before you store it. This is not critical for short term use as the cork will resist composure.
Although the mat, like a wooden chopping block, is anti-microbial in itself. Cleaning it from time to time will help it maintain its natural grip. In order to clean cork use a mild soap or diluted vinegar, a sponge or brush can be used to clean the mat even deeper if you need.
