• 30 ml (2 tbsp) of 70 or 99% isopropyl alcohol (See the FAQ at the bottom of this page.)
• 20 drops of organic bitter orange petitgrain essential oil (Citrus aurantium) (See the FAQ at the bottom of this page.)
• 10 drops of organic palmarosa essential oil (Cymbopogon martinii) or (See the FAQ at the bottom of this page.)
• 30 ml (2 tbsp) of organic orange blossom hydrosol
• previously boiled and cooled water
• 100 ml spray bottle

Before diving into the DIY, take a few minutes to check the cleaning instructions that came with your mat. Some materials, like cork, can't be cleaned with liquids. It would be a shame to damage your nice new mat!

1. In the bottle, first pour the alcohol, then add the essential oils.

2. Mix well to let the essential oils disperse in the alcohol.

3. Add the hydrosol and, if desired, the grapefruit seed extract (if that's what you chose for this recipe).

4. Mix and fill the rest of the bottle with the boiled, cooled water.

Shake before each use and spray directly on the mat. Wipe with a cloth or let air dry. If the mat is dirty or full of sweat (hello, hot yoga!), start by wiping it well before spraying on the cleaner.

As a general rule, we recommend cleaning your mat once a month with soapy water and using a cleaning spray after each use.

Happy practice! Breathe in, breathe out!
