I came across a cool blog this evening: The Everything Yoga Blog. And the second post I read reviewed a yantra mat. Apparently this mat is not for asanas, but rather for lying on and relaxing. I’ve seen photos of these mats in Yoga Journal but this is the first time I’ve ever read a review. I’m intrigued! Has anyone else out there tried one of these mats? What was your experience?
And speaking of yoga, there’s a 2-hour special on PBS this Wednesday (April 7th) about the life of Buddha, narrated by Richard Gere. Click here for more information and local listings. I can’t wait to watch this – already set my DVR!

I love this mat. I bought mine at shopnaturesuniverse.com and it has really helped with tmj and stress!
This mat turned out to not be what it should. I found that you couldn’t even feel the very sharp plastic points through a very thin shirt, you need to have your back bare. I didn’t find it did anything for my tight muscles and tmj and when I tried shifting my position, it ripped my elbow open. It’s definitely a “fad” that might work for those who simply like the feel of it. I returned mine but they cheated me out of shipping both ways and I wouldn’t recommend it.
