Melissa Long & Lean Bolster
An updated version of the traditional yoga bolster made for modern bodies. Made 4" longer to support the entire spine and slightly narrower to support chest openers and backbends. This Long & Lean Bolster helps combat the symptoms of how our society lives with our spines in constant flexion. Perfect for Supported Fish Pose and any other yoga pose you love!
This Buta baby is the result of a Damask and a Paisley Parent. Muted colours give a calm but still decorative appearance to freshen up your studio or home!

Customer Reviews
I had never used a pillow like this for my practice, so have waited a few weeks before I wrote a review. The quality and pattern of the fabric is beautiful. I feel I’m using it more and more, and I’d hate to be without it!
The kindest women making the most beautiful and amazing quality yoga bolsters and props; what a dream come true. — I quite literally searched high and low for beautiful and well made yoga bolsters. I love vintage stuff so when I finally found Love My Mat, I immediately did a happy dance. Not only are they beautiful to look at, they are such great quality. You can see how much love went into them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I will forever recommend you!❤️❤️❤️❤️
My first bolster for Yin Yoga practice. I love it !
Am really enjoying this bolster. Has a lot of support and I like thats it more lean and longer than standard bolsters.
My new Daphne bolster is really beautiful

I ordered a Long and Lean Bolster (Praise) from Love My Mat. The bolster is exquisite - the fabric is beautiful and the bolster is the perfect length to support my back in a poise to strengthen my back. Thank you for providing such high quality yoga props!
I am enjoying my new bolster. I am enjoying all the products that I have purchased. Thank you. Your products are wonderful.
Beautiful & smart-long bolster! Everything is always ethically sourced & well-made. Products arrive quickly as well & customer service is fantastic too! Looking forward to seeing you at this years yoga show in Toronto 🙌🏻
This is narrower and slightly longer (my head remains supported) than the traditional bolsters that my yoga studio uses, but i actually really love this! Its the perfect size! The fabric used is of good quality and professionally sewn. Unless you’re looking for the traditional wider bolster then i would definitely recommend this one. I also like that it easily tucks away in my small square footage home and that it was made right here at home in Canada!
So happy you love our updated bolster design. We hope you love it for many years to come!
