Our store is filled with goodies to inspire, support and encourage your practice and journey. Here is a snapshot of our selection.
HALFMOON YOGA PRODUCTS
Halfmoon is a Vancouver-based company that has been supplying handcrafted yoga and meditation props since 1999. Their Studio Mat is a classic, and comes in a variety of colors, even in a tall & wide size. We also carry their ultralight Travel Mat and thicker Dual Practice Mat. Other accessories we carry are rectangular and cylindrical bolsters, organic cotton straps, 4″ foam or cork blocks, massage balls, and silk eye pillows filled with sweet smelling lavender and flax seeds to enhance your Savasana experience.
JADE MATS
If you are looking for a mat with excellent grip, look no further. Jade mats are made of 100% natural rubber (a renewable resource), and are cushy, highly durable mats. They are, however not recommended to use outside, as rubber is sensitive to UV radiation. In addition, a tree is lovingly planted for every mat sold!

Our mat bags are designed by Alchemy Ec0-Fashions and ethically made in India from recycled 100% silk-brocade saris. They are roomy enough for any mat, have a zipper or drawstring opening, a handy pocket and adjustable strap.
MAT SPRAY
The same mat spray as the one we use in the studio — Nezza Naturals‘ organic handmade cleaner with Eucalyptus and Cedarwood essential oils. Anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and wonderful smelling.
