Posted by / January 28, 2014

Exercise is great for you, but bad for your hygiene. Think about it: sweaty yoga matts, stinky water bottles, funky shoes, and the mother of all, the gym bag. These nineteen tricks will help you keep things clean and fresh-smelling. For example:

DIY some spray to wipe down your yoga mat.

Recipe #1:

  • Three drops of tea tree oil
  • Two drops of peppermint oil
  • Two drops of lavender oil
  • Distilled water

Recipe #2
This is for a stronger antibacterial/antifungal spray.

  • 1 part warm water with 3 parts white vinegar
  • Add 8-12 drops of essential oils like eucalyptus, lemongrass, lavender, mint, or tea tree oil

For both solutions, mix thoroughly and place the solution in a spray bottle.
