Listening To Country Cork Yoga Mat

$90.00
Description

Designed by Australian Indigenous artist Ricky Kildea, this mat invites you into stillness, connection, and deep presence. With every practice, Listening to Country becomes more than a name — it becomes a way of being.

The artwork is a visual meditation on what it means to be “in the ZONE” — from an Aboriginal perspective. It speaks to deep listening, to the grounding rhythm of the Earth, and to the powerful connection between mind, body, spirit, and Country. Practicing on this mat becomes an experience of being held — by art, by story, by something much older than us. 

A connection to Country is central to Aboriginal spirituality — not just land, but spirit, ancestry, and wisdom. This connection has supported sustainable living for thousands of years, and this mat honours that — by encouraging presence, respect, and oneness with the natural world.

Crafted from sustainable cork and natural rubber, this mat is a low-tox, earth-friendly foundation for your practice. The cork surface is naturally antimicrobial and non-slip, providing support through every movement, while the artwork offers an energetic guide back to yourself — to your breath, your intention, your ZONE.

Cleaning & Care

Hemp fabric is a super-fiber—natural, durable, strong, yet soft and comfortable. We've put our garments through their paces, including machine washing on hot cycles and tumble drying (not recommended!). Amazingly, they’ve bounced back every time.

While it's great to know how resilient hemp is, we want to help you extend your garment’s life.

Follow these care instructions:

  • Wash inside out to protect the print
  • Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colours
  • Avoid bleach, soaking, and fabric softener (the fabric is soft enough!)
  • Try not to tumble dry—dry flat with the print open
  • Use a cool iron if needed (avoid ironing over the print)
  • Do not dry clean

how to use your yoga mat

Position your ZONE yoga mat on a flat surface. You can practice on either the cork or rubber surface depending on your practice and grip preference. For fine tuning alignment, use the cork side with guide lines.

If you're using the cork side, we recommend using a yoga mat spray with essential oils to lightly moisten your mat before practicing to initiate the suberin in the cork. Suberin increases the level of grip in your mat, so as you generate heat and sweat in your practice, your grip will enhance.

For an advanced grip option, use the rubber side.

WHY WE USE CORK?

Cork is naturally antimicrobial which means that it suppresses the growth of micro-organisms such as mould or bacteria and naturally repels dust, dirt, and grease.

  • Easy to clean and naturally antibacterial
  • Non-toxic, PVC, latex and phthalate free
  • Eco-friendly, renewable and durable

Our eco-conscious packaging is kind to the Earth and plastic free. Your yoga mat will arrive in a ship ready bio-degradable packaging tube keeping packaging to a minimum, whilst protecting your yoga mat.

So In Love I cannot imagine my Yoga life without your mat & accessories Lydia. ThankU for producing such beautiful lasting products & with the planet in mind. My mat is like a magic carpet that takes me on a journey every class. The incredible artwork by Ricky is mesmerising & gives me a spiritual grounding connection, & takes me back to Uluru, a place of beauty. The perfect proportion of height, width & texture grounds me like no other mat & the cork gets better with sweat & heat, giving me confidence & stability knowing I wont slip or slide out of a pose. Every Yogi should treat themselves to your products.

Zone mat and hemp bike shorts The cork mat is both light to carry and non-slip. The listening to country artwork and meaning is beautiful. The shorts are super comfy, no digging in at the waist but also not saggy. Love the hemp material, very breathable. Great length too as I’ve never been a person who goes for booty shorts.

The mat has both a beautifully meaningful and highly functional design that helps align my postures during yoga practice. It's a good length and the cork provides a grippy and comfortable surface that's also odour neutral. Love it!

I love this mat so much! It is top quality and beautifully designed. No more curling corners or lumpy parts and it won’t slide on the floor due to the rubber backing. It just rolls out perfectly flat. It brings me joy every time I use it.😊

QUALITY Listening to Country Mats I ordered x10 of the Listening to Country Mats. The quality and grip/non-slip of the mats is out of this world. The artwork is divine and makes me feel so connected to our Earth and takes you on a journey. I also really loved the cylinder and packaging it came in, the way the mat rolled out of the cylinder felt like a beautiful smooth experience. I also got a Yoga block, the shape and quality makes it easier to use. I havent used one this shape before its wonderful. So very grateful to Lydia and team for creating such an Amazing product but also amazing service and care in everything they do. Thank you so very much. Extremely grateful.

Listening to Country A+ I recently received the listening to country yoga mat and a few other products and can say that I absolutely love them. The mat is comfy and durable, especially after sweating or on warm days when some extra grip is needed. The story behind it is also really amazing and wonderful artwork embodying it. The clothing, so comfortable and easy to move in. Highly recommended when looking for some great quality products!
