No, not at all. In fact they are the best grip we have seen yet!

Auramat™ Yoga Mats are handwoven for subtle grip and grounded movement. While they don’t use synthetic, toxic, “sticky” coatings like conventional mats, their textured cotton weave provides natural traction and over time, it becomes even better as your body and mat sync energetically.

Each Yoga mat also features a natural rubber tree backing to prevent sliding on studio or home floors, giving you a stable foundation for everything from gentle breath work to dynamic flows.

In fact, since the alignment is built in, you are able to focus on the next alignment points. Next time your in downward dog, look at your elbows, are they in alignment, how about your shoulders? Most of us miss this next level of sophisticated alignment, focused on whether or not our hands are evenly balanced. 

No Synthetics, No Toxins, No slip. Just grounded, soulful connection and connection to your soul, your spirit, your aura!

Each Auramat™ is handwoven, plant-dyed, and soulfully crafted using ancient Ayurvedic techniques known as Ayurvastra, a sacred textile tradition that infuses healing herbs into fabric to support the body, mind, and spirit.

Here’s how your mat comes to life:

• Organic cotton threads are spun and woven on traditional handlooms by skilled artisans in India, no electricity, no machines, all natural frequencies.
• The organic yarns are then steeped in a warm bath of Ayurvedic herbs like neem, tulsi, indigo, turmeric, and sandalwood. These herbs are carefully chosen based on their energetic and medicinal properties. We DO NOT cut corners in our dye process to increase profits like other new brands finding their way to the Yoga mat market. (Learn More). 
• The yarns are dried and cured naturally, allowing the herbal infusion to bond with the fibers.
• Skilled artisans then handloom the Yoga mats on traditional wooden weaving looms. 
• A natural rubber tree backing is applied for anti-slip grounding, no glues or synthetic adhesives are ever used.
• Each mat is inspected, blessed, and packaged by hand, with deep respect for the craft, the energy, and the journey it will go on with you.

Auramat™ were the real first authentic Yoga mats offered in the USA despite what others claim. The energy of our mats do not lie. Each Yoga mat is made slowly, intentionally, and ethically, start to finish. We will never compromise your spiritual journey by cutting corners in the production process. 

These mats are not mass production. This is a sacred creation made with love for your journey and highest regards.
