Yoga is a Hindu word that means union. Traditionally, it refers to that mind-body-spirit connection that we seek in our yoga practice, but in a world where mass-produced items often harm our health and the environment, I think it’s really key to make sure our gear is in line with that union.<\/p>\n

From your workout clothes to your practice mat, it’s important to make your gear as mindful as your practice. Here are some eco-friendly yoga clothing and accessory ideas to bring more of that union to your practice.<\/p>\n

Eco-Friendly Yoga Mat<\/h3>\n

We’ve written about green yoga mats<\/a> before, and there are quite a few options out there! The one that I’ve been using for over a year and totally love is the Bean Products yoga mat<\/a>. It’s phthalate free, which means I don’t have to worry about nasty chemicals off-gassing while I’m in child’s pose.<\/p>\n

Organic Cotton Strap<\/h3>\n

If you’re new to yoga or trying out a strenuous new position, props can make a big difference! A yoga strap<\/a> can help you get comfortable in a pose that your body isn’t ready to fully move into yet. Just like your yoga pants, you don’t want to use a strap produced with all of the harmful pesticides that go along with conventional cotton. <\/p>\n
