The yoga and wellness community has long been ahead of the game when it comes to making eco-conscious choices, from clothing to yoga mats. That’s driven innovation into more planet-friendly mats in recent times, utilising a whole range of natural, ethical and sustainable materials.
For Tom Le Lievre of Sustain Yoga — who discovered the practice after putting his body through hell as a long-distance runner — it was one of the guiding principles behind his move to create high-spec cork yoga mats. The mats are made with premium Portuguese cork and natural rubber — the natural rubber is non-Amazon harvested and is heat sealed to the cork, no glue is used. Plus the mats are brilliant for yoga.
“The grip on cork actually improves with sweat”, he says, “meaning you can spend more time enjoying your yoga instead of constantly stopping to readjust your pose or wipe your mat.”
Furthermore, there are no nasty chemicals involved. “Our unique manufacturing process removes odours and won’t leave you holding your breath while your face is close to the mat! Now you can practice in peace knowing your mat isn’t causing you or the environment any harm.”
