YOGA STRAPS

Using restorative yoga props can greatly enhance your yoga practice and contribute to overall well-being. Here are several reasons why incorporating props is beneficial:

1. Enhanced Comfort: Props provide additional support, making it more comfortable to hold yoga poses for an extended period. This comfort allows you to fully relax into each posture.
2. Deep Relaxation: Props like bolsters, blankets, and yoga blocks facilitate a supported and restful experience, helping you release tension and stress.
3. Improved Alignment: Props assist in achieving proper alignment in yoga poses. They help you maintain the correct positioning of your body, ensuring that you receive the full benefits of each posture without straining.
4. Accessible for Everyone: Props make yoga accessible to people of all fitness levels, including beginners and those with physical limitations. They provide the necessary support to help individuals ease into poses safely.
5. Increased Duration in Poses: Props enable you to stay in yoga poses for longer periods. This extended duration enhances the benefits of each pose, fostering a deeper sense of opening and release.
6. Injury Prevention and Recovery: Yoga Props provide support and reduce the risk of injury, making restorative yoga suitable for those recovering from injuries or dealing with chronic conditions. Our cork massage balls are perfect for releasing tight muscle bands and fascia.

Incorporating restorative yoga props into your practice can transform your experience, making your yoga practice more accessible, more comfortable which facilitates further relaxation.

Our straps are made from all natural jute. Jute has a high tensile strength and becomes softer with use.

Our yoga straps are made form natural sustainable jute which makes them super strong yet soft and comfortable on your skin. Yoga straps are such an important and helpful prop for not only beginners but yogis of ALL abilities in helping to:

- Maintain proper alignment in certain poses, reducing the risk of injury.
- Modify poses to make them more accessible.
- Deepen poses by finding extra space and leveraging off the strap.

Cork yoga blocks are useful props for beginners and experienced yogis to help overall progression and support physical limitations. You can start incorporating new yoga poses and stretches with just one yoga block, however having multiple yoga blocks can allow you to perform a wider range of poses to better your flexibility as well as assist with jump throughs and inversions. Yoga blocks are also useful to use in place of cushions and bolsters as a sustainable, supportive yoga prop.

Cork yoga blocks are a better option over foam blocks for several reasons:

1. Sustainability: Cork is a sustainable and renewable resource. It is harvested from the bark of cork oak trees, which can be done without harming the tree, as it naturally regenerates. Foam, on the other hand, is typically made from non-renewable fossil fuels.
2. Environmental Impact: The production of cork has a lower environmental impact compared to the manufacturing process of foam. Cork is biodegradable and requires less energy to produce.
3. Durability: Cork blocks are known for their durability and resilience. They maintain their shape and firmness over time, while foam blocks may compress and lose their structure with prolonged use.
4. Firmness and Support: Cork provides a firm and stable surface, making it ideal for supporting various yoga poses. It offers a solid foundation and doesn't collapse under pressure.
5. Antimicrobial Properties: Cork has natural antimicrobial properties, resisting the growth of mold and bacteria. This is especially beneficial in a yoga environment where cleanliness is essential.
6. Grip and Traction: Cork has a natural texture that provides excellent grip and traction. This helps prevent slipping, especially when the practitioner's hands or feet may be sweaty during a vigorous practice.
7. Natural Feel: Cork has a warm and natural feel, making it comfortable against the skin. Foam blocks, while soft, have a synthetic feel.
8. Aesthetics: Cork has a natural and earthy appearance, aligning with the principles of yoga to create a more harmonious and calming practice space.

The sustainable nature, durability, and firm supportive qualities of cork yoga blocks make them a popular choice for those looking for a reliable and eco-friendly yoga prop.
