thick tri-fold yoga mat

We are in the process of fixing up the basement, so basically everything is a mess. I can’t do yoga upstairs, because all the basement stuff is shoved into the bedrooms until it can all go back downstairs. And I don’t want to do yoga in the basement, because the floor is unfinished concrete. But then I saw this yoga mat. It’s extra thick, and it folds up to take up less space.

This is a comfortable mat, and it would work well with any floor exercise, like Pilates or stretching. In a pinch, I think it would also work as an extra sleeping spot if you have a house where lots of relatives show up for holidays.

I found this mat to be sturdy and comfortable. It’s perfect for me to do some gentle yoga poses or meditate without having to be directly on our cold concrete floor. I pulled the foam out of the vacuum-sealed packaging and left it on the sofa for a few days to expand. And in that time, it no longer belonged just to me. Our cat had climbed on top and turned it into a cat bed.

Once I was sure the foam had fully expanded, I wrestled it into the faux leather case and got it all zipped in. And once again, my cat climbed right on top and got comfy. So for me, this works as a great yoga mat, and I look forward to the time I can spend working on my poses. But I will have to wait my turn, because he is really cute.
