YOGI TIPS
• Wash your Aurorae mat in the washing machine with quality detergent using hot water settings.
• The constant spinning of your washing machine, combined with hot water and detergent, will break your mat in quickly and make it less slippery. Repeat this process if necessary.
• Hang dry outside if possible. DO NOT PUT IN DRYER.
• If you do not have access or prefer not to put your mat in the washing machine, wipe your mat down with a damp cloth and a tablespoon of dish washing liquid. Rinse off and hang dry outside if possible. DO NOT PUT IN DRYER. Repeat process if necessary. Along with use this will help break in your mat.
• Mix fresh lemon with water in a spray bottle. You can use this to naturally clean your mat while also giving it a fresh natural scent. You can keep this in your yoga bag.
• Wash your hands with soap and water before class to reduce any natural oils in your hands.
• Do not use creams or oils on your hands or feet before your practice. Keep dry.
• Always keep a cotton towel* (available by Aurorae) near you to wipe away any perspiration.
• If necessary use an Aurorae Yoga Rosin Bag* to absorb any perspiration and increase gripping power.
• To completely prevent slipping while sweating you may want to try a yoga towel or hand and feet yoga grips. These are only used for extreme sweating conditions i.e. Hot Yoga, Ashtanga and Bikram.
• The tips above should help you break in your mat quickly as well as keep your mat clean/fresh and prevent slipping as much as possible.I hope these suggestions are helpful. We at Aurorae are here to help and educate you with your yoga.

The very first thing that I noticed about this mat is how thick it was! It was SUPER nice and I have to say, this one is going to last me a while. I can go through a mat pretty darn quickly. I also LOVED the color. Thanks Dennis for thinking that I would be a Violet person....You were right. He was super sweet and sent my mat right on over. This company has quick shipping and the customer service was awesome. That is something that I always pay attention to. It is not easy asking for samples to review, some people are almost rude about it but I have to say, Dennis was polite and responded VERY quickly to me. Thanks Dennis!


If you are in the market for a mat that has great cushion, beautiful colors, amazing materials and will last this is the place to go. PLEASE check out the site. The music in the background even soothes you as you shop! So cute! I give Aurorae a 10! Great in every way. Valentines Day is coming up and a new yoga mat I know would be a great gift. The gift of health is always a thoughtful one. If you want your boyfriend to join you more with your yoga practice or your girlfriend to continue hers or you are a guy that just so happens to be awesome and practices yoga this is a great mat. Heck, I don't just use my mat for yoga. I lay it down whenever I am doing exercises on the floor. This mat was especially good when doing sit-ups. My back bone sometimes can make me feel uncomfortable when laying on the floor and the cushion is so nice!


All in all, a great product and Company! I hope that you will go and see for yourself! Thanks so much!


Namaste!
