Possible applications Yoga Bolster Black:
The filling of the Yoga Bolster Black:
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 the Yoga Bolster Black:
Originally, buckwheat comes from northern India and central Asia. Buckwheat hulls have a high content of minerals and silicic acid. This is supposed to alleviate complaints such as joint and back pain. In addition, also menstrual cramps or rheumatism. In addition, buckwheat is also said to promote blood circulation and thus be particularly beneficial in venous diseases and circulatory disorders.
Texture buckwheat:
Buckwheat, unlike polyester or even spelt, is firmer, harder and rustles less. It is also more stable in shape and particularly permeable to air. In addition, it is particularly suitable for asthmatics and those with a house dust allergy. Thus, buckwheat is also safe during pregnancy. Other advantages of buckwheat are that it is breathable, cools in summer and warms in winter. In addition, it protects against excessive sweating. It regulates humidity. It also protects against dust mites. Only in case of gluten allergy we do not recommend buckwheat filling.
Care of your Yoga Bolster:
Our bolsters are all quite lushly filled. So are our meditation cushions. Both have an inner cushion. Thus, you can remove the outer cover and wash in cold water or up to max. 30 C. Please do not wash the inner pillow with the buckwheat filling. Finally, a small note: If necessary, you can always adjust the amount of filling and thus the hardness of your bolster. It is recommended that you refill your bolster with the buckwheat filling every 2 years or better yet completely refill it.
