A yoga mat provides several benefits during yoga practice:

1. **Cushioning:** It offers padding and support for your joints, especially during poses where you're on your knees, elbows, or lying down.

2. **Grip:** Yoga mats typically have a textured surface that prevents slipping, allowing you to maintain stability and balance in various poses.

3. **Hygiene:** Using your own mat reduces direct contact with the floor, which can harbor dirt, sweat, and bacteria from previous users.

4. **Portability:** A yoga mat is lightweight and easy to roll up, making it convenient to transport to and from classes or when practicing outdoors.

While it's possible to practice yoga without a mat, especially on a soft surface like grass or carpet, a yoga mat enhances comfort, safety, and hygiene during your practice.

Stability and Grip: A yoga mat provides a stable surface, preventing slips and slides during poses. It offers a reliable grip, especially when practicing on hardwood floors or other slippery surfaces. The stickiness of the mat ensures that your hands and feet stay put during downward dog and standing postures.

Hygiene: Yoga mats are easy to clean and maintain. They create a barrier between your body and the floor, ensuring a more sanitary practice. Imagine practicing directly on a public gym floor—yikes!

Comfort and Padding: Mats offer cushioning for your joints, making your practice more comfortable. Whether you’re in child’s pose or attempting a challenging arm balance, that extra padding can make a difference.
