Things To Carry In Your Yoga Bag

If you are also a beginner in yoga, there are certain accessories that you need to hoard your wardrobe with. We have listed these yoga essentials for you below. Yeah, you are welcome!

Manduka Yoga Mat

One of the first yoga supplies you need, as a yoga starter is a Manduka mat. They have a very lasting shelf life and practitioners use one mat for about 4 to 5 years at a stretch. Because it lasts so long, it is advisable to make a good investment out of it. Avoid going for the cheaper alternatives that might fall apart in a few months. You may pick from a variety of fun colors.

Yoga Mat Towel

Yoga towel mats are one of the yoga accessories that you must buy along with your yoga mat. As many yogis experience the yoga mat sliding on a polished wooden or marble floor, a good towel will eliminate this discomfort. These absorbent towels are as large as the mats and would keep the mat from wetting due to perspiration.

Yoga Bolsters

Your collection of yoga supplies must also contain Yoga Bolsters. Whatever be the goal you aim at achieving through yoga, it will be within your reach by the use of an appropriate bolster. Specially, for beginners, who need support while performing certain postures, a bolster comes to rescue. But while you shop for a yoga bolster, consider its fitment for the exercise you need help with.

Yoga Straps

Yet another accessory that needs to be present in your yoga bag are the yoga straps. Like the bolster, the straps are accessories that assist you to form certain positions that you are still in the process of mastering. Natarajasana, which most beginners choose to skip, due to the strain and difficulty can be easily formed by the use of a yoga strap.
