Cork Yoga Mat from Pureful or Yoloha
Did you know that cork trees are the only trees in the world that can regrow their bark after it’s been stripped away and harvested? Not a single tree has to be cut down to harvest cork - it’s stripped away from the live trees with no harm done to the environment. The antimicrobial properties in a cork yoga mat help to repel mold, which means it’s practically self-cleaning and doesn’t ever smell. Best of all, it stays non-slip during the sweatiest of yoga practices, so you don’t have to sacrifice grip or support, making this a great gift for the yogi in your life. Pureful Yoga makes a biodegradable mat and donates 3% of all profits to environmental causes and forest preservation efforts. Yoloha also makes cork yoga mats with some pretty impressive designs.
