Whether you've been a yogi for as long as you can remember or you're just now finding your zen, it's no secret that incorporating yoga into your routine has its benefits. It helps your body and your brain feel good — what's not to love? While you could find a class at your local gym or even follow an instructor for virtual workouts, sometimes it's nice to practice yoga in your own home.
That being said, creating your home yoga studio can be affordable and attainable. You just need a couple of key pieces of equipment and the right mindset.
1. A yoga mat
There are plenty of options, depending on if you want a super thick mat or a slim, non-slip mat. One way or the other, you need a mat that you feel comfortable on.
2. A dry-fit towel
Even if you aren't doing hot yoga, a dry-fit towel ensures you aren't sliding around your mat when you should be focused on downward dog.
3. Yoga blocks
Even the most advanced yogis can benefit from the extra support yoga blocks provide.
4. A diffuser
If you really want to bring the right vibe to your home yoga experience, a diffuser will do just that.
6. Candles
For the ultimate ambience, light a candle.
