Here are some tips for properly maintaining and cleaning your natural rubber yoga mat:
-
Store your mat in a dry place out of direct sunlight, which can discolor and dry out the rubber.
-
Clean your carpet regularly by brushing it with a soft brush and a suitable spray then wiping away the moisture with a cloth. Use a mild soap or diluted white vinegar solution if your carpet is very dirty or you need to disinfect. You can add a few drops of essential oils if you prepare your solution yourself.

Always allow your mat to air dry thoroughly before rolling it up and storing it. Avoid putting it in a place that may be damp or moldy, such as a bathroom or basement.

Use a natural rubber yoga mat on a flat, stable surface to prevent the mat from slipping or warping.
-
If your carpet is badly damaged or starting to lose its color or elasticity, it may be time to replace it.
