Yoga Egg Prop Block Cork

Benefits / Who It's For:
Iyengar, Anusara, Ashtanga, Restorative and Power Yoga; also in use in physiotherapy. Use in supported backbends.
 
I started using these Eggs with my new-to-yoga group on Wednesday nights and now carry a set with me anytime I'm likely to practice so that I can share the good news. Using is believing!
The Egg's intuitive shape, appealing texture and dimensions lend themselves to easy adoption by all students. We have all been in or taught beginner's classes where blocks remain on the shelf or set aside until there is a real effort at integrating them into individual poses. Ongoing use or adapting the block's purpose doesn't come so easily to novices, especially.
I have found both in my teaching and my own use, that the Egg transcends this problem. Students reach for the egg without direct instruction, easily and intuitively integrate it into their movements practice for strength, support and restorative purposes. Indeed, as I watch students progress in their familiarity with poses and their body, the use of the 3-Minute Egg moves with them, allowing fuller expression of the pose as they grow as students.

The Eggs are a must for my restorative practice too, especially for supporting outer thighs in Supta Baddha Konasana. Not having the legs "dangling" and causing tension in the inner thighs permits a much deeper release and relaxation. You can be creative too - I've found they make a nice supportive seat for meditation or prana. I place the Eggs on their flat side in a V-shape and sit on the narrow point with each side's sit bones on one Egg. The lower body is supported nicely and tailbone is free to help extend the spine. (I refer to that setup as my Lotus Blossom seat.)
I am so thankful for this innovative design which not only allows for a more forgiving therapy, but I also use these eggs for back support when I am sitting up in bed with pillows behind my back or on a couch working or reading, like right now.

I do highly recommend eggs for two reasons: 1) to massage both sides of the back simultaneously while lying down with the eggs up on the curved side (flat sides facing each other) separated about an inch apart to allow the spine to fall between them; and 2) for a wide lower back support in front of all those pillows as you sit up in bed or on the couch.
 

Fast-growing, renewable cork makes these blocks stable, long lasting and comfortable. Cork harvesting is a sustainable process that has remained virtually unchanged for 3,000 years. Made from the bark of long-lived cork oak trees, cork is stripped from the trees every decade, a process that actually maintains the health of the trees, and their surrounding ecosystem. Cork is extremely durable, yet slightly porous, giving it the perfect balance for use in our yoga blocks. Its natural texture provides traction, while the rounded edges make this block very comfortable in supported poses. 

Product Features: Natural material - No off-gassing - Rounded edges for comfort - Heavier weight for stability - Natural texture provides traction - Great touch, feel and weight - Hand-cut edges for better traction and stability - Cork harvesting is sustainable.
