Active Lifestyle - Yoga at Home
Recently home workouts have become the new norm while we are all in lockdown. The yoga studios might be closed but thankfully, fellow Yogi’s around the world are coming together and creating amazing content for us online. So we can stay healthy, stay active and keep practicing from the comfort of our own homes. We have put together a list of our top 10 yoga related products to help us get through these crazy times physically, mentally and spiritually. Ranging from uniquely designed eco mats to beautiful copper drink bottles that will last you a lifetime, we think that there is bound to be something on this list that will make a great addition to your at home practice. Stay healthy, stay safe and stay home.

The founder of Two Minds, Corri, wanted to create a beautiful, easy to use fitness journal that didn’t feel like it was a chore to fill out, which has certainly been done with the design of her journals.
