A place to stand so you can move your world

Archimedes is famed for saying “Give me a lever and a place to stand and I will move the earth.”


He was talking about the basic mechanics and power of levers.


In your life, the only lever you have is you.

Here is your place to stand...courtesy of thewellbeingshed.co.uk


Having a solid BASE in yoga asana is important. As it is in life. That’s why we want as many

people as possible to be able to afford a high-quality mat.

THE PROCEEDS FROM SALES OF THIS MAT GO DIRECTLY TO FUNDING THE SHED WELLBEING

CENTRE IN COMPTON, WEST BERKSHIRE, UK

Basic

We have kept the design, packaging and colour options really basic; to keep the price as

low as we can.



A centre line is useful - along the length and the width - to help with basic alignment. So,

we added those.

Other placement lines get in the way of inward-focussed practice.

They also weaken the mat surface and shorten its life span. So, we didn’t add those.



Even this product information sheet is as basic as we can make it…


Affordable quality

This is a high-quality mat. Easily the best mat we have ever used. We tested the prototype

for 6 months with daily practice. There is a lot of life in it yet and not once did we

slip...even when soaked with sweat in a very strong session.

With the right care, your mat will last years...with regular practice.


Sticky

There is not much to say about this.

The B.A.S.E. mat is insanely sticky!!! Without getting in the way of some sliding when

needed…



Try wetting your hands before practice as a test too. Sounds a bit nuts, yes, but you will

not slip.

Long, strong, deep asana are so much more attainable when you are confident in your

grounding.


Eco friendly

We by no means claim this mat is totally eco-friendly.

What we have achieved…

The mat base is made from sustainably sourced rainforest rubber, combined with

recycled rubber. It is fully recyclable.

The top layer (the sticky bit you are going to love) is PU (polyurethane)...also recyclable.

The top and bottom layers are heat bonded; avoiding the need for toxic adhesives.

The box we send it to you in is made from 100% recycled cardboard.

A time and a place..

Let’s find them! ‘Older wisdom’ says “There is a time and a place for everything.” 😁 You’ve heard it said. I’ve heard it said. Not sure...
