You do yoga in order to naturally realign your joints, muscles and breathing (and perhaps spirituality as well). Unfortunately, most yoga mats are going to mess with that by shooting the fresh scent of PVC right up your nose, and rubbing it all over your skin. An alternative is the ECO Sticky mat from PrAna, which is made without heavy metals or PVC (although they don't say what it is made from). $44 USD. Available in lavender, orange and lime. [GT]
