Bolsters and blankets for support in positions, for savasana, meditation
Yoga blanket
Yoga blanket is an indispensable accessory for meditation, for static asanas and asana savasana; the position of the body when we are lying resting on the floor and makes us feel warm and comfortable. The blanket can also provide great support and comfort in other asanas - from basic (support for sitting positions) to advanced (ustrasana, headstand). The blanket can be rolled up to relax the legs and support the lower back, or be used as a knee pad. Its advantage is height and shape adjustment. Made of natural or environmentally friendly materials, it will keep you pleasantly warm even while resting on the couch.
Yoga bolsters
Are the padded cushions rectangular or cylindrical in shape, which help you to relax completely in the asanas , help to soften the body and enable gradual and safe stretching. They are available in different dimensions and weights, filled with different materials - e.g. cotton, shell puree, polyester, buckwheat, kapok,..
Most often, bolsters are used in restorative yoga or therapeutic yoga, yin yoga and as support in asanas in other types of yoga. Examples of asanas where we use a bolster: Savasana, Balasana, Viparita karani, Supta Baddha Konasana,...
Bolsters size
Bolsters come in a variety of sizes, from small to large. Small bolsters are suitable for people with small stature or for use in certain positions. Large bolsters are suitable for people with a larger figure or for use in several positions.
Shape of Bolsters
Bolsters come in two main shapes: round and rectangular and moon. Round bolsters are more versatile and can be used in different positions. Rectangular bolsters are more specific.
Bolsters filler
Bolsters are filled with a variety of materials, including foam, kapok wool, millet, rice or oats. Foam is the most durable material, but it can also be the most expensive. Kapok wool is a natural material that is very comfortable and can adapt to the body. Millet, rice and oats are natural materials that are very friendly to the environment.
Bolsters cover material
Bolsters are available in a variety of cover materials, including cotton, polyester.
Why so many variants?
This is exactly the question that customers often ask in our store. Round bolster or rectangular bolster, small or large, stuffed with what...?
How to choose the right yoga bolster?
Bolster in yoga is used as a support in various asanas. Like other yoga accessories (blocks, blanket, straps, wheel...), the bolster helps us to relieve the parts of the body in an asana or when we go into a certain asana.
Bolsters are restorative yoga. They help to support the body, provide comfort, and with their help we achieve better blood circulation.

Alles mooi socks - a combination of Merino wool and Mohair
The Slovenian African association ALLES MOI has dedicated itself to products made from natural fibers - mohair, wool, bamboo, which are biodegradable, sustainable and skin-friendly. Each product (socks, blankets, technical pants) takes into account tradition and is a collection of knowledge, passion and experience. With selected natural materials, they support local communities in South Africa and are environmentally responsible.
Combination of Merino wool and Mohair. What are the great features of mohair socks? Mohair comes from the Angora goat, which gives us this wonderful "wool".
Until now, we have always talked about Merino wool, how it is the best thermoregulator, how durable, comfortable to wear... All this is still true. But we opened our eyes a little more and saw how wonderful the combination of Merino wool and mohair is.
They wrote somewhere: Wool is great but mohair is better. Yes it's true. Both together are the best!
And what are all these great features of mohair socks:
- the socks do not develop unpleasant odors (air the socks overnight, the next morning the socks are fresh and ready to wear)
- mohair socks are more durable because mohair fibers are one of the most durable natural fibers that stretch up to 30% and then return to their original shape without any problem
- socks are antibacterial because bacteria cannot "stick" to the smooth mohair fibers
- mohair socks keep your feet dry by wicking moisture away from your feet and drying quickly
- mohair, like wool, is the best natural thermoregulator - such socks will keep you warm in the cold and cool in the heat
- mohair fibers are smooth and therefore the socks are comfortable and prevent blisters
- special, smooth fibers ensure that the socks shrink only minimally during washing
- exceptional comfort and convenience in all seasons
Alles Mooi socks were developed by local experts. They are made in the Republic of South Africa. The angora goat that gives us this wonderful "wool" comes from JAR. The coat of the Angora goat is very soft, long and silky and known for its luster. Although the hair of angora goats has scales like normal wool fibers, these are only indicated and not fully developed. Because of this, it cannot be felted, but these fibers are therefore more durable, antibacterial, more stretchable, more insulating... It is the most durable animal fiber - it is flexible and not rigid, and can be bent and twisted without damage. At the same time, JAR is also a large producer of Merino wool. So two super raw materials in one place.
ALLES MOOI means all good in the language of South Africa.
For the team, all good means that they invest love, knowledge, passion, their heart, everything they can, into their work and products. They traveled a large part of the world, lived in different countries, experienced different living environments, different cultures... Each destination, each environment had its good and bad sides. They gathered all this together and made a new product from their experience and from the abundance of nature. Their products are produced with old traditions, knowledge, passion, experience, with the support of local communities. Natural and sustainable.
Alles Mooi / all good = heritage and future.
