The Cycle Of Life Cork Yoga Mat
Guaranteed Safe Checkout
Description
Introducing the "Cycle of Life" Cork Yoga Mat, a limited-edition creation designed by yoga teacher and artist Lara Zilibowitz. This unique yoga mat combines sacred earth materials—sustainable cork and natural rubber—with a mesmerising design that visually captures the eternal rhythms of nature, the human experience, and the interconnectedness of all life.
The artwork features intricate patterns inspired by the ancient Tree of Life. The design is a representation of life's dualities, with one side of the mat bathed in the tranquility of night, adorned with stars that shimmer against a dark sky, and the other side alive with the brightness of day, where birds soar in the sunlight. This dichotomy symbolises the continuous cycle of light and darkness within us and in the natural world around us. At the root of the tree is a heart that symbolically anchors the tree, representing the core of human emotion and experience.
This mat encourages you to reflect on the cycles and seasons mirrored in your own life, from the inhalations and exhalations of your breath to the rhythmic beating of your heart. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the cosmos, offering a sanctuary for practice, reflection and growth.
Product Details
Our ZONE yoga mat is larger than your average yoga mat measuring 183cm x 68cm x 3.5mm thickness and 2.6kg.
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.
How To Use Your Cork 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.
