There are a lot expensive and nice smelling mat sprays on the market, but I have never used even one of them, except when I received one as a gift. :) I prefer to make my own yoga mat spray, which is naturally disinfecting, smells nice, and is really cheap to make, too! I have used the recipe in my studio and at home for almost six years. Even some of my clients who are chemically sensitive are not allergic to this mat spray.
The main ingredient is tea tree essential oil, which is a natural disinfectant. The other oils somewhat cover the scent of the tea tree oil and make the mat spray smell fresh and energizing. You can also use this mat spray as an all purpose surface cleaner for your house!
Make sure you use 100% pure essential oils, not "scented oils." I use Aura Cacia brand essential oils, which you can get at most health food stores or buy online.
Tea Tree Oil Yoga Mat Spray
1 32oz spray bottle
20 drops tea tree essential oil
5 drops spearmint essential oil
5 drops peppermint essential oil
Fill the 32oz spray bottle with water, then add in the essential oils. Shake to mix. Spray liberally on your yoga mat, then wipe with a clean, dry cloth. Allow the mat to air dry out of the sun.
