How to Use Your Yoga Mat Spray link no longer available The most important thing I want to mention about using your yoga mat spray is to use it
you practice. Trust me. You can’t do yoga on a damp mat.
So, once you’re done with practice, give your mat a good spray down with your yoga mat spray and then wipe it thoroughly with a dry towel.
Let it sit out for about 30 minutes to fully dry before rolling it back up.
