My yoga journey

My introduction to Yoga Props came about during a restorative Yoga retreat. Yoga Props such as belts, bolsters, blocks and Yoga stretch wheels enhanced the experience during practice. 

Very quickly, I learned that yoga props gave me the comfort and confidence to become more adventurous. With yoga equipment, I was able to explore more intelligently during my Yoga practice. With the support and security of yoga props, I felt calmness and peace when flowing from pose to pose.

If you are a yoga beginner, yoga props can support you to safely linger in your yoga pose for longer periods of time, helping you to find your feet as you explore your yoga mat for the first time.

Asana is a great form of meditation, but I needed to develop more mindfulness. Meditation is an integral part of Yoga practice, but being mindful does not come easily to most of us. Mindfulness can be an excellent tool for improving mental health and overall wellbeing, and meditation tools helped me to begin my mindfulness journey.

I experienced freedom from my noisy mind during evening meditations whilst being submerged in the blissful sounds of the singing bowl and Tingsha. They were therapy for the mind and soul. On my return from my retreat, I wanted to have my very own collection of Yoga props for my home practice.

After finding it difficult to purchase all the props I needed 'under one roof', I took the plunge to begin delivering this service independently, and Yogapropshop was born.
