Always on the Lookout…

for a yoga bag…

Whether you are a yoga teacher or a yoga student, chances are you are lugging more than just your mat to class. The basics in a yogi’s bag are: phone, water bottle, towel, car keys, house keys, money. As a teacher I carry a little notebook with my class plan, belts and sometimes even blocks.

Most of us have a yoga bag and also lug around our mats. That might be fine for you, but I’ve been doing it forever and it’s getting a tad bit tedious. Just as I was browsing online for a bag which could work for me, Meraki Decors contacted me! Megha, the woman behind this quirky venture spoke to me at length about her journey and passion, and the connection was instant.

And, Meraki Decors decided to customize a yoga mat for me and send it for review!

When I looked up the term Meraki, I found out that it’s one of those words in a language that can’t be literally translated. They describe a mood or a behavior.

You can bring Meraki into pretty much whatever you’re doing, be it cooking, decorating your home or your table, and (in my case) creating a life based on holistic health and conscious movement.

So, I was excited to receive this mat and below it is for your viewing. Needless to say, it serves me perfectly. It’s roomy enough for even really thick and big mats. I use a thin mat, and that leaves enough room to put my jacket into the bag too. And even my water bottle!

There’s a really convenient pocket in the front where I usually keep my phone, car keys, notebook, spare change etc. And the best part is that Meraki Decors put my name with an inspirational quote on the mat. Because #postiiveaffirmations.

I’ve been using this bag for a while now and I like the way it looks and the convenience. Meraki_Decors has so much other stuff that you’re going to love (I certainly do!)

And I got lucky on Valentine’s Day because Megha gave me a beautiful handmade candle stand.
