##What is the Perfect Yoga Gift?
The perfect yoga gift depends on who it’s for, their skill level, and why it’s being given. No matter the reason for gifting, yoga has something for everyone. Whether it’s for a beginner, an advanced yogi, or someone who just wants to relax and destress, there’s the perfect yoga gift out there.
###For the Beginner
If you’re looking for a gift for someone who is just starting out their yoga journey, here are some ideas:
* Yoga mat
* Blocks
* Pillow/bolster
* Strap
* Towel
For a beginner, the most essential of these items is a yoga mat. Mats come in a variety of sizes, designs, and colors. It’s a helpful tool to have while practicing. Block and a strap are also useful accessories, because they help the yogi get into correct positions and keep the correct form. A pillow or bolster can be used as a prop in restorative poses. Finally, a yoga towel is a must, especially if somebody is practicing in a sweaty space.
###For the Advanced Yogi
For the advanced yogi in your life, you can get them something to help further their practice:
* Yoga mat
* Bolster
* Blanket
* Eye Pillow
For the more experienced yogi, a supportive mat and bolster are important items. Not only do they help keep the yogi in proper form, they make the physical practice more comfortable. Blankets or eye pillows can be used for relaxation and mediation.
###For the Mindful
Yoga isn’t all about the physical practice. It includes a strong focus on relaxation and meditation. A special gift for somebody who is looking to center their thoughts and relax their body could be:
* White sage smudge stick
* Essential oils
* Candles
* Incense
Smudge sticks, essential oils, candles, and incense are all used to create a calming and soothing environment. A few deep breaths taken while using these items can take someone away from stress and release negative energies.
##In Conclusion
Yoga has something to offer everybody — whether they are a beginner just starting out on their journey, an experienced yogi working on mastering an advanced practice, or just looking for a way to destress and relax. No matter the reason for giving it, there’s a perfect yoga gift out there for every yogi in your life.
