"Which is why the choice of mat is so key! This is why Patanjali’s answer to the question What is Yoga? Don’t fret if you’re not sure what to look for in a yoga mat; it can feel confusing to distinguish between the different kinds-particularly if you’re shopping online. Instead, it uses traditional yogic models to look at the whole person. "Unlike what people tend to imagine, yoga therapy does not look like a typical yoga class. "It’s great if you plan on getting sweaty and don’t want to slip and slide," Gholar notes of her Yoga Zeal mat, which she likes for the printed designs, the moon phases in particular, though floating butterflies and fluffy clouds are also on the table. The treatment plan and techniques used in yoga therapy can vary based on your age, physical ability, and unique needs, says Romanoff. Made from nontoxic materials like organic cotton with cushy design, these mats work for tall yogis, travelers, and hot yoga enthusiasts. Its ethically-sourced raw cotton is infused with Ayurvedic medicines and brushed with natural rubber latex for grip, and the coordinating meditation pillows, filled with buckwheat and lavender, smell so good-I’m balancing on it as I type!

"I bought a whole bunch of hot pink Alo yoga mats, and then these beautiful Alo blue blocks," Cher said of updating her downstairs fitness room with the brand. Lightweight and easy to store, the brand shares that less than 1% of its products have been returned since launching last year and going viral on TikTok. Beth, who has had the autoimmune disease Ulcerative Colitis for most of her life, has spent the last decade teaching millions of global yogis how to destress and relieve anxiety. So, for a person experiencing anxiety for instance, the therapist will guide them through poses like child's pose and tree pose, and explain how the poses help relieve anxiety. While yoga therapy is typically performed on an individual basis, a subtype of yoga therapy includes a group element, where multiple people work together with a therapist in a small group and the power of the group is part of the healing process, says Romanoff.

For example, the therapist will explain the importance and value that each exercise and yoga pose could have in alleviating your concern, thereby creating a bridge between the practice and its cognitive framework. A yoga mat and a towel, this promises to get even grippier as it gets wet. "Having a mat that is too thick or too slippery can cause you to injure yourself even if you’re doing everything correctly," says Kimberly. "It is a little heavier for travel compared to others, but an excellent option to have for home workouts or to leave at your favorite studio." Cindy Kimberly (the supermodel who was instantly signed when a certain pop star posted a photo of her) admits she used to think all mats were the same before using Alo’s version. On the other hand, supermodel Miranda Kerr revealed that this Gaia mat is a favorite of hers-making it easy (and comfortable!) to move her body daily.

Weight: Traveling with your mat? "From group workouts, recording new exercises for our app, and trying to squeeze in some movement while traveling for work, we’re obsessed with the unique shape and colors, and more importantly, the mat’s quality," says Skriver. "I travel a lot for work, so staying active can be challenging while I am on the go," says Velghe. Material: Many of the mats you’ll be looking at will be made with PVC (polyvinyl chloride), while some are made with natural rubbers or cork. While PVC might be more affordable, they can be more slippery. Thickness: A thicker mat can ultimately feel more comfortable on your wrists, knees, and back.
