A useful tool to make the asanas more accessible to beginners, and to deepen the postures for more advanced practitioners.
Yoga bricks allow you to work on your flexibility gently, without forcing yourself at your own pace.
Used properly, a brick makes it easier to master the 'perfect' asana. It makes it possible to practise according to the rules of the art even with a body that is not yet supple enough. Once the correct positioning has been established, suppleness comes gradually with the regularity of calculated and controlled efforts.
Yoga blocks are also used for pilates and fitness exercises. They support flexibility deficiencies by allowing the body to be extended so that "unattainable" postures can be performed correctly at the time, while promoting the comfort of gentle work.
Cork is a natural and ecological material that is lighter and much less slippery than wood. Cork yoga blocks** are always durable and sturdy, and they don't break when pressed.
Compared to wooden or EVA bricks, cork yoga bricks are not slippery. They are comfortable to grip and non-slip, even more so when wet with perspiration. They are easy to stack without the risk of slipping.
The only drawback, depending on the quality of the cork used, is that it is harder to clean. Cork absorbs perspiration which, depending on its type and compactness, can flake off at the edges and corners.
Our cork has been selected for its premium quality and perfect compactness A natural choice on the part of our team in search of optimum quality for practical use and durability, but also for successful engraving (without a satisfactory degree of compactness it would be impossible to have this mandala engraved so finely on one side).
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and dry carefully. To remove any stains, you can use a toothbrush with a soapy solution based on savon de Marseille, then wipe with a soft cloth and that's it!
The Hummingbird is laser engraved without any additives or other materials.
The hummingbird is a spiritual messenger of love, joy and playfulness. It tells you to love life's moments, to celebrate them with hope and jubilation. It also teaches adaptation and a positive state of mind.
It also symbolises the importance of every little action. An Amerindian legend tells of a huge fire ravaging the rainforest. A hummingbird was busy throwing a drop of water onto the flames and back again. Asked about the effectiveness of his action, he replied: "I'm doing my bit.
Achamana, literally translated from Sanskrit as "a sanctified sip of water", has chosen the hummingbird as its emblem and logo.
Symbol of independence: A caged hummingbird does not survive, representing spiritual freedom from collective movements.
Resurrection symbol: the hummingbird, faced with cold nights, seems to die, only to be reborn and "resurrected" when daylight arrives. A symbolic death in the face of illusion and rebirth in spiritual light.
Symbol of grace and beauty: through its ceaseless quest for the purest nectar among the flowers, the hummingbird illustrates a constant search for truth and intellectual clarity.
