It's 2023, and sustainability is the need of the hour! Whether it's purchasing everyday essentials or luxury pieces, we are required to be conscious of the choices we make and how they impact our environment. That holds true even for the additions we make to empower our fitness. As yoga gains popularity and becomes a part of a healthy lifestyle and a way to invest in our well-being, we reckon that shopping for a yoga mat must be on your wishlist. While we've continued to use yoga mats made of plastic and synthetic materials, it's time to pause and consider the impact it makes on nature, be it to manufacture them or when we discard them.

To get you started on your journey, here are seven brands from which you can shop eco-friendly yoga mats under INR 2,000. Apart from being reasonably priced, these are made with natural and durable materials that will not harm the environment and become your best training buddy!
