With the holidays fast approaching, here’s a fun list of things you can choose from to add to your gift shopping list for the yogis in your life:
TRAVEL ESSENTIALS
Timolino Tea2Go Vacuum Mug
There are definitely loads of travel mugs, tea infusers and beverage holders out there, so which ones are good for the tea loving yogi? This really stands out: its vacuum sealed and insulated design keeps drinks hot/cold for 6 hours, has a fine steel mesh infuser to steep tea / coffee, a hidden chamber in the lid for extra tea or sugar, 360° drinking, and the secure lid twists off with just a turn (instead of having to rotate it a gazillion times like most, which is a nice touch).
Nicaragua Active Bag
This fun, bright bold signature bag by ACTIVYST is made of water resistant and crazy durable “macen” material. Separate compartments neatly store shoes, water bottle, phone and small items along with yoga mat. With each bag you buy, 10% of the price is donated to an organization in Nicaragua that helps young girls travel safely to their soccer practice & sports events.
SELF CARE
