Okay, so I’ve been wanting a new yoga mat for a while. My old one was, well, old. It was kinda gross, honestly, all faded and starting to peel. I decided I wanted a purple one this time – my favorite color! So I started, you know, the usual way… by looking around online.

The Search Begins…
I started searching everywhere. I looked at so many mats, it was crazy! Some were too thin, some were too thick, some were just…ugly. I wanted something that felt good, looked good, and wouldn’t fall apart after a few uses.
Narrowing it Down
- First, I filtered by color. Purple, obviously.
- Then, I set a price range. I didn’t want to spend a fortune, but I also didn’t want a cheap piece of junk.
- I read a bunch of reviews. Some people are REALLY picky about their yoga mats, I learned!
The Choice
After a lot of searching, I finally found one I liked. It was a nice, deep purple color, and it looked pretty thick. The reviews were mostly good, saying it was comfortable and durable. So, I took a chance and ordered it.
Unboxing and First Impressions
It arrived a few days later. I was so excited to open it! I ripped open the box (carefully, of course) and unrolled the mat. It was perfect! The color was even better in person, and it felt really nice and squishy. I tried my favorite Sun Salutation pose for a few minutes and it was so good.
I use it every day now. I love that thing, It’s so nice to have a mat that I actually enjoy using. Totally worth the search!
