The color gray with our bolster gray:
With gray we associate wisdom, dignity, experience, practicality as well as routine. But also dreariness and monotony, boredom and mundane. There are so many different shades of gray, this one could be called umber gray. However, with a strong color in combination, gray often has a balancing effect.
The filling of the Yoga Bolster Gray:
Yoga bolsters are usually filled with spelt husk, buckwheat, cotton or kapok. Kapok is a white-gray - yellowish material. It is obtained from the fibers of the kapok tree and is water repellent. Our bolsters are filled with buckwheat. The cotton is organic and so is the buckwheat it contains.
Advantages of buckwheat in our yoga bolster gray:
Did you know that buckwheat originally comes from northern India and central Asia? Buckwheat hulls contain high levels of minerals and silicic acid. These are supposed to alleviate complaints such as joint and back pain. In addition, menstrual cramps or rheumatism. In addition, buckwheat is also to promote blood circulation. Thus, this can be particularly beneficial in venous diseases and circulatory disorders.
But what makes buckwheat so special now?
Well, buckwheat, unlike polyester or even spelt, is firmer, harder and rustles less. At the same time, it is more stable in shape and air-permeable. In addition, it is also particularly suitable for asthmatics and in case of a house dust allergy. Besides, buckwheat is also safe during pregnancy. Furthermore, it protects against dust mites. Only in the case of a gluten allergy we advise against a buckwheat filling.
The properties regarding temperature
In addition, it is breathable, cools in summer and warms in winter. Then it also protects against excessive sweating. At the same time it regulates moisture.
