Introducing the Mysore Practice Rug

I’m excited to share our beautiful line of Fully Organic Cotton Practice Rugs, crafted to honor the spirit of yoga while supporting the way you move through your favorite poses. In the early days, many of us practiced on cotton every single day. That “old school” texture brings you closer to the floor, your breath, and the quiet steadiness that the spirit of yoga invites.

Why cotton (and why organic)

Cotton offers a grounded, natural grip that feels stable beneath standing poses and soothing in seated work. These rugs absorb sweat, help minimize slip, and add a gentle layer of comfort without muting feedback from the mat. Choosing organic cotton reduces chemical load on the planet, aligning your yoga practice with the broader spirit of yoga, care for self, others, and the earth.

How to use your practice rug

Lay the rug directly on top of any sticky mat. You’ll get the tactile feel of cotton with the dependable base of your mat, and you’ll extend the life of that sticky mat, too. The weave supports transitions between poses, making vinyasa feel smooth while keeping drishti and breath front and center. After practice, hang it to air-dry; when needed, machine-wash cold and line-dry to preserve the fibers.

Who it’s for

Practitioners who love a traditional surface for standing, seated, and finishing poses

Sweaty flows that benefit from added absorption and a calmer, grounded feel

Yogis looking to embody the spirit of yoga through more sustainable gear choices

Old roots, fresh practice

These rugs are a small, tangible way to reconnect with lineage, simple, durable, and refreshingly honest. If your practice has been asking for fewer distractions and more presence, cotton might be the perfect reset. Explore the collection, choose a color that makes you smile, and let the texture remind you why you show up: to meet the body kindly, breathe with attention, and move in the quiet spirit of yoga.

Check them out and have fun practicing yoga!
