Pausing—just for a few conscious breaths—can shift your entire day.⁠
It helps regulate your nervous system, calms racing thoughts, and brings you back into your body.⁠

These small moments of stillness are powerful tools for clarity, resilience, and inner peace.⁠

Let this post be your permission to stop. To breathe. To feel.⁠

How are you creating space to pause this week?⁠
We’d love to hear in the comments—or share this with someone who might need the reminder.⁠

We'll be at City of Om this year in Ottawa, ON. Will you be there too???⁠

We've participated in this event for several years now and it's always a big hit! Tons of outdoor and indoor yoga & fitness classes. Amazing vendors selling sustainable, locally made and beautiful wellness products. Plus great food vendors and ALL. THE. GOOD. VIBES. ⁠

This event is run by a thoughtful team and we're so happy to be part of it. Not only as a vendor selling our handmade bolsters, meditation cushions, yoga mat bags, eye pillows & straps - but we also loan 50+ vinyl meditation cushions to support your sit bones for all the meditation classes.⁠

Come by to see us. Saturday, May 31st at Lansdowne Park in Ottawa, ON. from 9am - 6pm. We'd love to meet you in person!⁠

Oof. Easier said than done, right?⁠
But the truth is—when we stop taking things personally, we free ourselves. From unnecessary stress. From overthinking. From pain that was never ours to carry.⁠

Whether it’s a short comment, a cold shoulder, or someone else's anger… most of the time, it’s not about you. It’s their story. Their wounds. Their lens.⁠

💭 What would shift for you if you stopped making others' behaviour mean something about you?⁠

Let’s practice not taking it on. Let’s protect our peace.⁠

💙 Save this for the next time you need a reminder.⁠

Happy Mother’s Day to all the those who do any type of mothering. The world needs you and appreciates you.

I love you , Mom 🥰😘🙏

Well-being isn’t about perfection—it’s about checking in, tuning in, and showing up for yourself in ways that feel nourishing. 🌿

We know that busy schedules, family life, work demands, and just being human don’t always allow space for all the things we know are good for us. And that’s okay. You don’t need to master every practice or do everything on this list every day.

Start small. Pick one that speaks to you right now—maybe it’s setting a boundary, taking a short walk outside, or just allowing yourself to rest without guilt. Whatever it is, let it be enough.

This is your gentle reminder that caring for yourself doesn’t have to be another task on the to-do list—it can be a soft return to what makes you feel whole. 🩵

Which of these tips feels most doable for you this week? We'd love to hear in the comments.

Have a beautiful practice.

We’re a mother-daughter team making quality yoga & meditation props. We use recycled & forgotten fabrics as much as possible. We use organic and local ingredients. We use little to no packaging. And we do this because we believe you can have a beautiful practice while keeping the earth beautiful.

We reduce our environmental impact by saving fabrics items from landfills and turning them into useful props designed to support you for many years. Our goal is to provide you with uniquely beautiful products that genuinely fit with your energy and space.

We hope you Love My Mat as much as we do. xo Shelley & Kathy
