10 Gifts Every Type of Yogi in Your Life Will Love
There’s something about the feeling that accompanies stepping into a yoga studio (the scent of essential oils, the dim lighting, the mood music...) that just makes too-tense shoulders instantly return to their natural resting place. And that’s a feeling every yogi, from the seasoned to the beginner, is probably missing right about now.
But that’s where you come in. To help the yogis in your life recreate the mood at home, we’ve rounded up the editor-loved essentials for boosting any yoga practice. From squishy Brentwood Home meditation pillows to a why-didn’t-I-think-of-that method for mimicking hot yoga, you’re about to become the official giver of good vibes.
For someone who’s just getting into yoga, this super-soft and supportive pillow is a great starter gift. It’s specifically designed to help align the spine into proper position for meditation or seated yoga poses, and with stitching inspired by the tide pools in California’s Crystal Cove state park, it’s basically a full-body sigh in pillow form.
Crystal Cove Oval Meditation Yoga Pillow
Self-guided flows can be fun for more advanced yogis, but instructors go through a ton of training for a reason. Tap into their expertise by gifting a membership to Sky Ting TV, and your yogi will be instantly transported to one of the cult-fave studio’s airy New York spaces. Plus, you’ll be supporting a small business, and that’s the ultimate feel-good move.
