Tips related to Yoga Mats
1.Choose the yoga mat
Regarding the thickness of yoga mats, the common yoga mats on the market have thicknesses of 3.5 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, and 8 mm. One of the most basic suggestions is that beginners can use a thicker, such as 6 mm thick yoga mat, to prevent sports injuries. After having some foundation and experience, you can switch to a yoga mat with a thickness of 3.5 mm to 5 mm. Of course, if you are very afraid of "pain", you can always choose a relatively thick yoga mat to practice.
2.How to Clean the yoga mat ?
To ensure hygiene, it is best to clean it every other week. The easiest way to wash is to mix two drops of dishwashing liquid with four bowls of water, spray it on a yoga mat, and then wipe it with a dry cloth. If the yoga mat is already dirty, you can also use a cloth dipped in washing powder to gently wipe the yoga mat, rinse it with water, and then roll up the yoga mat with a dry towel to absorb excess water. Finally, just dry the yoga mat.
It should be noted that the amount of washing powder is as small as possible, because once the washing powder remains on the yoga mat, the yoga mat may become slippery. Also, do not expose the yoga mat to the sun when drying it.
