We are now living in a world obsessed by cleanliness. So it makes sense that we should give our yoga mat a good clean up too, right? Let’s face it: when was the last time you cleaned your mat?
Yoga provides a full range of mental and physical benefits; our mat can provide a sacred space for our personal practice. It’s important therefore to keep it clean and smelling fresh. The volume of sweat worked up during a session can often be surprising. It’s not a nice thought, but over time, and with regular use, the build-up of sweat, oil and grime can create quite an aroma!
The experts at Spritz Wellness — founded in 2017 by yoga teacher Laura Colucci — recommend you deep clean your yoga mat at least once a month. This can be done by placing it on a gentle cycle of the washing machine (where that’s recommended for your particular mat) or better yet, hand wash with a mild natural detergent. Always air dry and do not place it in the dryer, the company says.
However, in between washings, keep your mat clean by using an all-natural yoga mat spray. Spritz Wellness Yoga Mat Sprays can be used before practice to freshen your mat and add aromatherapy to a session. They can also be used at the end of your practice to wipe away sweat and clean and restore your mat for your next session.
