YOGA BOLSTER - ORGANIC COTTON
Regular price
$39.00
A beaut organic cotton bolster hand made here in the Northern Rivers using solar power, and hand filled with off-cuts from our other natural fibre garments making it both supportive for your stretches, and zero-waste!
Size: 77cm long x 21cm diameter (or 65cm circumference).
Because it's made from natural fibres - mostly cotton and linen, with a small amounts of hemp, silk, bamboo, and wool, depending on what we've been making in the studio (you can DM us for a vegan version and we'll happily set aside just your preferred fibres), it is quite heavy. So, unfortunately we can't post it. But we offer free pick up from Kyogle, Lismore, Brisbane, and at any of our market days which you can find posted on our insta.
Another thing to note about natural fibres is that they're porous. This is what makes them breathable and so comfy on our skin, but it also means that if you leave them outside when it rains, they can grow natural funghi (tops!) or even mould (not-so tops). So we recommend keeping this bolster as dry as possible. Leave it in the sun to dry if you've had a bit of a sweaty session, and then store it indoors.
The up-side of this porousness is that when it reaches the end of it's life, years down the track, after you've squished and refilled it as much as it can take, you can put it in your compost and it will decompose completely naturally, returning to the earth in full-circle.
A little bit of TLC will go a long way with this one, and we think it's worth it with all the benefits it offers for your comfort and the health of the environment.
