airflow to keep you cool. These same air pockets are warmed by the infared

heat to a nice warm temperature while you sleep.

Here are some descriptions of the more popular types of yoga to help you
choose a suitable program to help you shape up. Ashtanga (Power Yoga)
The preferred choice for athletes, Ashtanga yoga is light on meditation but
heavy on stamina. Not only are the poses more difficult than those performed
in other classes, participants are encouraged to move quickly from one pose
to another in an effort to build strength and flexibility.
This style is suitable for anyone in good physical condition but should
be avoided by those who are new to exercise. I
Yengar - One of the gentler styles of yoga, Iyengar is perfect for
novices and those who haven't exercised in a while. It uses props such as
chairs and pillows to compensate for a lack of flexibility, which is helpful
for anyone with back or joint problems. There’s also a meditative bent
should you prefer a combination of mental and physical fitness.
"You don't need to be a great athlete," says Jo-Ann Sutherland of the JNS
Yoga Studio in Saskatoon. "It’s yoga for everyone."
Hatha - This mellow form of yoga focuses on simple poses that flow
from one to the other at a very comfortable pace. Participants are
encouraged to go at their own pace, taking time to incorporate lots of
breathing and meditation into their workout. This yoga is ideal for those
needing a stress release at the end of a tough day.
Our cylindrical buckwheat bolster offers forgiving support for
spinal stretches, restorative postures and deep breathing. Useful anytime a
part of you needs grounding during asana practice.
The Bolster has a buckwheat hull filling, which offers greater resistance for
more intense stretches. Also, the buckwheat hulls help the bolster retain
its original shape over time. Hidden zippered for ease of cleaning.

Buckwheat pillows have been and are globally used. For
example in many European countries new borns are given both a buckwheat hull
mattress and a buckwheat hull pillow. To promote sound sleep without being
to cold our too warm while sleeping.
In Korea all children are given a buckwheat hull pillow by
their grandmothers.
In Japan for hundreds of years and even today the only
pillow that is available to purchase are buckwheat hull pillows, everyday
ship loads of buckwheat is shipped to Japan from Canada, they make buckwheat
noodles from the innerseed and make pillows from the hulls.
In Canada the first pillows and mattresses available and
used by the first Canadians in eastern Canada, over a hundred years ago, was
buckwheat hull pillows and mattresses. At that time they did not have cotton
or hay to fill mattresses and pillows. Later, it was used in chicken coups
too to help the chickens to deal with the cold temperatures of Canada, at
times of the year no city in Canada is above zero degrees for weeks at a
time.
Traveling Hints
When you travel you will want to remember to take your pillow with you too.
Many times we have been called by our pillow users
from some hotel somewhere where they realized they missed their buckwheat hull
pillow and wanted us to ship them one right away by next day air. Also remember
if you do travel with your pillow, don't forget it when you leave. We suggest
you use a bright colored pillow case on it when you travel. Many users of the
Large size pillow use the traditional size Makura
to travel with because it is smaller and lighter.
