Plantule's new 'Earth' collection for yoga and relaxation reminds us of our connection to nature. It draws attention to what is primal, life-giving and orderly.
Each pillow contains the energy of the earth - the most solid element on which everything is built. Behind the layer of linen and cotton in the bolsters and seats there are clean buckwheat and spelled husks, which until a few months ago covered cereal grains growing luxuriantly on ecological soils of local farms. Hot water bottles smell and rustle with seeds collected in the summer from cherry trees. And in the eye pillows flaxseed shines golden brown, small but heavy with its beneficial properties. Everything that fills the Plantule pillows grew from a small seed - brave enough to take root, establish itself and develop, fearlessly drawing juices from the earth soft with life.
Colour, form and function - what is grounding
The new collection has been sewn by hand from soft linen and body-pleasing cotton in the color of fertile earth. Cool brown and natural linen in this duet are noble and calm the combination. Each Plantula - a yoga roller, a meditation pillow, a hot water bottle or an eye pillow - are malleable thanks to their fillings and always fit us. They hug the body and are close - giving a sense of security.
Everything that fills Plantule pillows sprang from a small seed, brave enough to take root, establish itself, and develop, fearlessly drawing its juices from the earth, which was soft with life.
Therapeutic touch of nature
Deep, sustained touch is sensory information to our nervous system that it's time to relax and reduce the anxiety present in the body. A yoga roller, a pillow or a hot water bottle placed on the body not only massage with the weight and texture of the filling, but also regenerate our mind. Thanks to such wrapping and weighting, the sensitive, but also overstimulated body receives a signal that everything is fine. The heart beats slower, the breath lengthens, and the thoughts soften. Moments with Plantule help to ground oneself, to feel more connected with oneself and with the environment.
The "Grounding" collection is built around simple and calm forms - on the plan of a circle and a rectangle.
The meditation cushion allows you to settle comfortably and anchor in a sitting position - straighten your spine and focus on your breath. The large roller was created for home yoga practice, especially for yin yoga and restorative yoga. Filled with buckwheat or spelled, it is a natural support for lying and inverted positions. The small bolster is part of relaxation and sleep - it's designed to support your knees, neck and help you relax in Savasana. An eye pillow with linseed and lavender relaxes the facial muscles and cuts us off from the light (and the world). Eyes immersed in darkness regenerate faster, and inner agitation turns into blissful calm. A hot water bottle with cherry pits soothes both hot and cold, and it is worth taking a "moon" croissant with you on a journey, for comfort and that little nap that catches you suddenly. Which Plantula do you choose?
