We are almost ready to launch our new collection of yoga/play mats, specially designed mats for both you and your little ones to enjoy practicing mindfulness and movement on.
Our ECO-CORK mats have been produced with cork grown and hand harvested in a sustainable manner. They are not only stunning to look at, they are amazing for all types of yoga. The ECO-CORK provides a non-slip surface which has antimicrobial properties.
Our LUXE-SUEDE mats are created using recycled plastic bottles that would have otherwise ended up in landfill. The LUXE-SUEDE has a soft finish with vibrant designs.
Yoga mats have become ubiquitous within the yoga and fitness community, however many consumers are unaware of the adverse environmental impacts their mats produce due to the harmful emissions expelled throughout their manufacturing process and their contribution to growing landfills. Aware of these issues, the ZIG & KO. brand philosophy is committed to production transparency and minimizing environmental waste.
ZIG & KO. will continue to strive to become better, stronger, kinder and more conscious of our impact on a global scale.

CORK YOGA MATS
Our amazing collection of cork yoga mats are not only beautiful, but cork is the perfect sustainable, non-slip material to create yoga mats.
introducing Mindfulness to kids
Mindfulness is an ancient practice and is for everyone, including your little ones.
There are many benefits to practicing mindfulness including strengthening your ability to deal with stress, becoming more aware of your thoughts, observing your actions and seeking a calmer disposition.
It is a vital aspect of being the best version of yourself and is a great idea to introduce the practice into yours and your children's daily routine. This will set them up with a richer toolbox from which they can retrieve the aids they need to navigate life in the happiest and healthiest way possible.
The key to introducing mindfulness to your children is to keep it simple, even for us adults it can seem daunting. It is a not a one-size fits all approach so make it your own which best fits your lifestyle and customise the practice to yours and your little ones needs.
A great start is to give your child a mantra such as "Peace begins with me" this can be said in moments when feelings are heightened (sad,angry,frustrated) if they take to this practice quite well you could then introduce them sitting cross legged and as they say each word touch each finger with their thumb. This brings their attention back to their sensory sensations rather than the emotions they are feeling.
We already know that children tend to emulate their parents so it is important to lead by example and for this practice to be most effective you will also be living out the mindful practices you are encouraging them to do.
CUSTOMER REVIEWS
“Thank you Sascha for creating these beautiful & sustainable cork mats that not only look incredible but are wonderful to practice on. I’m pretty picky with my mats and thought the cork surface might be a bit slippery for my sweaty hands (that’s the test for me) but it’s the opposite - great traction!! It also feels incredibly durable so I’ll have it for years to come. I’ll be recommending these to all my students” - Emma Waters (Yoga Instructor and Founder of Jala Yoga and Coaching)

We love knowing that they are eco friendly material, they are so easy to clean, light to carry and the beautiful designs brighten up our daily experience.
