Prenatal yoga flow + world’s most beautiful yoga mat

Be honest:

Have you ever seen a yoga mat prettier than this one?

I thought it was kinda bold of Yoga Design Lab to call themselves the makers of the world’s most beautiful yoga mat, but then they sent me this, and I was like: OH.

I mean…right??

I want to hang it on my wall, not drip nasty sweat all over it.

I have a Lululemon mat that I’m crazy about (it makes me look like I can actually DO yoga, vs. constantly slipping and falling on my face), but this beauty is a COMBO mat: mat + towel IN ONE.

I used to be a hot yoga regular, and I’d always watch people roll out their mats AND put a towel on top, and I’d think: ugh! So much work! Why?!

Well, because sweat. Duh.

And now, there is a solution for lazy people like me: BEHOLD.

This is one of those mats that gets even grippier the wetter it gets. So if you slip, it’s probably because you aren’t working hard enough. (haha)

OH YEAH: and it’s machine washable. Are you kidding me?!?!

It’s also child approved. He loves my “carpets.”

I might have to up my hot yoga game again! Thanks YDL!!

(Disclaimer: Yoga Design Lab sent me this mat for free, but I received no other compensation and was not coached on what to say. I’m truly so impressed with their work!)

Speaking of yoga…let’s talk prenatal yoga for a sec.

Everyone knows yoga is great for preggos, but what’s safe?? And what if you don’t have a gazillion dollars to join a yoga studio for the duration of your pregnancy??

There are some other great options (online videos, DVDs), but what if you want to listen to your own music, or just be in complete silence? What if you want to run through a quick flow in the morning or before bed, without having to turn on a screen?

That’s why we have written stuff. This one includes very basic, pregnancy-safe moves, organized in a logical flow, and it even comes with pictures and tips, so you can’t go wrong. Great for non-preggos too, of course. :)

Enjoy…
