Have you seen the movie "Love Guru" that just came out last week. If not I am not recommending that you go out and see it right away. It is one of those movies that you would probably want to rent.
I run a movie theatre so I just received at promotional item that is a nice, bright, yellow, yoga mat. It is actually very nice as far as Yoga Sticky Mats are concerned. It has a nice bag to carry it in.
If you happen to see the movie, it does have some funny parts. If you are really involved in Yoga you might get offended, due to the cultural jokes that take place at the expense of the Indian culture. It is definitely not one of Mike Meyer's best movies but it gets a chuckle every now and then.
Anyway, I was happy to receive the exercise mat to give me more cushion when I do my morning asanas.

Don't Forget The Yoga Exercise Mat
Before you get started there is one very important yoga supply that you need to get your hands on- an exercise mat. Exercise mats can be found everywhere now, even at your local K-Mart. They can be very inexpensive so there is no reason not to have an extra one. I keep one in my house for home exercise and one in my car for when I go to the gym. Having more than one exercise mat just makes it easier on me because I won’t be able to forget to bring one with me or take it back inside the house.
Having your own exercise mat is crucial. If you go to a yoga class without one you will quickly find that you are the only person without one. As I said, you can find very affordable ones all over the place now so you will never have to be without one.
I suppose that I ought to say that you really do need to use yoga sticky mats while doing the yoga or other exercises. An exercise mat clings to the floor and makes it easier for you to hold those crazy yoga positions without shifting or sliding around. I have, on more than one occasion, had to learn this lesson the hard way and I do not recommend it.

Yoga Sticky Mats
I never really understood why people wasted money on yoga sticky mats due to the fact they are so thin and don't seem to supply any amount of cushion. Until now, since I have hardwood floors in my home I am beginning to understand. I suspect that even if I had carpet I would probably want to get one of these. There are many exercises you can do on your feet, but there are many more that you may require you to come into contact with your floor. Even if you are only putting your elbows or perhaps your knees on your floor, you’re going to want some sort of extra cushion.
My first experience with exercise floor mats was in elementary school. I went to a very small school, and I guess maybe we had more things than other schools. Many of my friends from other schools told me they had no exercise floor mats in their gymnasium. Ours were quite thick, and we used them for many things. Though we used these exercise floor mats much more when we were younger, they were still use some in high school. Many schools have a very like large mats used to protect children falling and hurting themselves when using things like parallel bars, our exercise floor mats where there for every day play.
The airex yoga mat you get for your home would not have to be very large. They only need to be large enough for you to use on your own. They don’t even have to cost you very much money. You can find exercise floor mats almost anywhere you buy other exercise equipment. You may even be able to get something called a yoga mat to double as your exercise mat. As long as something offers you the protection you need from the hard wood of your floor, or from getting scratched by your carpet, it will work for what it needs to do.
I don’t know if I will use my exercise floor mats as much as I think I will, but I do know that my daughter will probably use them. She is very active, and loves to tumble around on the floor. There have been many times when she has bumped and bruised her knees and elbows, and if I had exercise floor mats for her to use, I think this would been less often. If nothing else, they will be something that she may use to sit on the floor in the wintertime when our hardwood floors are always cold. I guarantee it will be put to good use for something.
