What is a yoga pillow used for?

Pillows are widely used in restorative yoga classes. A pillow can be placed under various parts of the body for firm yet comfortable support to encourage total release and relaxation. Restorative yoga can have a deeply soothing effect on the mind and nervous system – think of a bolster as restorative yoga’s best friend!

A pillow is particularly useful in pregnancy yoga and can also be super helpful for anyone working with injuries or specific conditions – basically, a pillow offers support to any part of the body that requires more support. It is perfect to support yoga asanas like Paryankasana (Couch Pose).

Craft Story:

The removable pillow cover is woven of natural fibers like Jute and Cotton fabrics by a collective of 45 Craftswomen from Rajankatti, Makelmardi, Kadoli, Hunnur, Telaganatti, Madanbhavi, and Chikoppa which are drought prone regions in the state of Karnataka. In this jute cotton mat, jute is used in horizontal fashion (in shuttles of loom) to hide the roughness, and to give a detailed finish through cotton thread overlaying. This cotton gives a fine smooth texture feel to the product. 

Care Instructions: 

The pillow cover is suitable for both hand wash and machine wash in cold water, using a mild detergent. This ensures that your bolster cover remains clean, fresh and germ-free at all times. Use no bleach or softener and also no centrifugation. Hang dry.
