Mindful Giveaway: Barefoot Yoga Gift Pack

We’re happy to partner with Elephant Journal for our giveaway of a Yoga Gift Pack, featuring some of our most popular signature products. Perfect for a thoughtful gift, or for treating yourself, the Yoga Gift Pack will include:

Barefoot Hybrid Eco Mat - Spring GreenBarefoot Hybrid Eco Mat: Our signature Hybrid mats combine the best of eco-friendly and traditional mats. They are better for the environment and your health than traditional PVC mats with long lasting performance. The mesh scrim (the “skeleton” of the mat) is made from 100% recycled polyester, which contributes to its longevity and strength.

Mysore Practice Rug: Barefoot Yoga’s Original Mysore Practice Rugs have been traditionally used for Mysore style Astanga practice in India and are also excellent for any athletic or sweat-producing yoga practice like Bikram or Vinyasa styles. These decorative and tightly woven cotton rugs have been around for centuries and are considered to be the first mats ever used for yoga practice in India. Mysore rugs are one of the more eco-friendly yoga mats available as they are completely biodegradable and PVC free.

Bamboo Yoga BlocksPair of Bamboo Yoga Blocks: Our Bamboo Practice Blocks are beautifully unique. They are just as stable and functional as wood, but extremely light weight and much more eco-friendly. Made hollow, but every bit as durable as solid wood. Treat yourself to this luxuriously smooth prop for your yoga practice.

One pair of Yoga Pants.

To enter to win our Yoga Gift Pack, please send an email with the subject “Elephant Journal Giveaway” to info@barefootyoga.com, and include your preferred size of Yoga Pants in your email. Our winner will be drawn on Tuesday, November 20th.

Yoga Gift of the Week: Beeswax Aromatherapy Candles

With the holiday season fast approaching, Barefoot Yoga has great gift ideas for the yogi in your life, which we’ll be featuring weekly leading up to the holidays.

Grace’s pick for Yoga Gift of the Week is our Beeswax Aromatherapy Candles: “I love burning candles during the colder months. It makes the season warmer and cozier! The Big Dipper Waxworks beeswax candles are an unusual blend of aromatherapy oils that also have therapeutic properties. They burn cleanly which is important to me and lasts long too. I splurge for the glass candle holder or use the travel tins for stocking stuffers. Everyone whom I’ve given these candles to have raved about it.”

Pick of the Week: Bamboo Yoga Blocks

Samantha’s Pick of the Week is our Bamboo Yoga Blocks. Bamboo protects the environment and the air that we breathe. It is the fastest growing canopy for the regreening of degraded lands, and it releases more oxygen than trees. Bamboo is not only ecologically sound, but remarkably beautiful and elegant. Its distinct grains provide an exotic and unique pattern. It is also extremely durable. It is up to 34% harder than red oak and up to 15% harder than maple.

Samantha says, “It’s a light-weight yet durable block that is as eco-friendly as it is beautiful.”
