DIY Mat Cleaner
Do you ever clean your Pilates/yoga mat? Here is a simple DIY mat cleaner that you can make at home!
This simple recipe utilizes witch hazel, water and essential oils. You can switch up the oils based on your preferences, but here are the reasons I chose tea tree, lavender and peppermint oil in my DIY mat cleaner:
Lavender: eliminates nervous tension, disinfectant properties, means “to wash” due to it’s cleansing aroma.
Peppermint: antimicrobial properties, improve mental focus, energizing.
Tea Tree (aka: melaleuca): antimicrobial properties, removes odor, removes mold.
