People are always using them with shoes on etc. They are shedding and flaking, and I'm sure they don't smell good. <br /><br />I have tried hiding the mats, putting up signs on proper use. And, we clean them every week. But what a turn off. Blech.<br /><br />Enjoy the beers and the wedding!babshttp://babsbabble.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-79661298833894140082009-06-05T09:29:40.264-03:002009-06-05T09:29:40.264-03:00Yeah, I wouldn't be able to get past the icky ...Yeah, I wouldn't be able to get past the icky mat to truly focus on ANYTHING...ACK!! Decontaminate, decontaminate....*shudder*<br /><br />You should know that I've postponed my yoga aspirations until I find out what sort of mat I should be buying....not wanting to make a poor choice in a mat that I will wanting to be lasting me for all eternity...<br /><br />How's about a "Eco-Yoga Newbies - What Ya Just Gotta Have" post? *grin*melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00336474101204142611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-19927144276108582752009-06-05T08:46:12.542-03:002009-06-05T08:46:12.542-03:00Mary Ellen: yup- keeping your mat for as long as p...Mary Ellen: yup- keeping your mat for as long as possible is a fantastic idea! :) <br />I find that trying to practice yoga in the mornings before work just never happened- I like sleep WAYYY too much. You can download certain yoga sequences on Yogajournal.com (or create your own with pictures!). So- i started to practice after work, before supper.<br />I hear you on a class you can get to by bus, my goal is to begin walking to class... but I seem to never get home from work in time.<br /><br />Yoga Witch: haha, I had Om Shanti's post on "learning to practice with distractions" in my head when I was thinking maybe I should use this as part of my practice.... NAH. lol. I have heard that some studios have Karma Yoga where the students actually help clean and such in the studio- very cool :)<br /><br />YogaforCynics: oh yes- keeping your mat, as you've said before, is the best idea! I'm just a sucker for pretty new things lol.<br />Ouu- a yoga/solstice party! it will be Litha after all!Eco Yoginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693080137196812405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-3859655769183729302009-06-05T02:27:09.095-03:002009-06-05T02:27:09.095-03:00I love it when yoga and charity combine--I did one...I love it when yoga and charity combine--I did one yoga benefit event last month and am doing a big yoga mala/solstice party thing at the end of this one.<br /><br />As for mats...I'm thinking I'm just gonna keep using the old beat up one I've got as long it doesn't come apart completely...which there really doesn't seem to be much danger of any time soon--guess that's one thing to be said about those mass-produced styrofoam/nuclearwaste yoga mats, they're durable....YogaforCynicshttp://yogaforcynics.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-44001790231342996582009-06-05T01:48:28.570-03:002009-06-05T01:48:28.570-03:00"...I was not in the mind space for that life..."...I was not in the mind space for that life lesson." You are too funny! This is so...relatable!<br /><br />I've actually never heard of karma yoga before reading about it on your blog. I'll have to do some more research on that.Yoga Witchhttp://greenspell.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-21702873419701499852009-06-05T00:36:51.967-03:002009-06-05T00:36:51.967-03:00Gee - I never stopped to think about where my mats...Gee - I never stopped to think about where my mats (I have two, pretty standard) came from or whether they were made of anything objectionable. Hmmm . . . well, since I have them, the most ecological thing would be to use them as long as it makes sense. My biggest yoga problem is that I don't seem to have time or space to practice. I need inspiration! (Also, a class I can get to on the bus would be excellent.)Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06476814211173076515noreply@blogger.com
