How to Clean Stinky Yoga Clothes

How to Clean Stinky Yoga Clothes

I’ve been loving the fact that I’m now walking distance from my favorite yoga studio in LA: Hot 8 Yoga!! All of that sweat though really makes my yoga clothes, well...stink. Unless I wash everything IMMEDIATELY (which never happens, because even finding enough time to escape in order to just take the class is a lot to ask!). When it comes time to wash my hot yoga clothes, the smell seems to be stuck in the fabric. YUCK! Read my tips to get rid of that stank!

As you all know, I lead a holistic life and I’m very conscious about any chemicals I use in my house or put on my body. That being said, sometimes you just need the chemicals. It’s all about BALANCE. I use natural detergent most of the time, but I need the strong stuff to get rid of serious stinkiness or dirt. That’s why I use Persil Pro Clean 2in1! It’s #1 rated for smelly workout clothes by a leading consumer testing publication, and I couldn’t agree more! Not only does it work amazingly on my yoga clothes, I actually use it for my yoga mat as well. Yeah, you heard me!! This is one of my #1 yogi/fitness tips!! Did you know you can throw your yoga mat into the washing machine on gentle cycle with towels + then air dry? I've been doing this for years + I wanted to share this secret with you! Remove from washing machine, hang over your shower + allow to dry! I like using a more powerful detergent like Persil Pro Clean 2in1 because it actually gets the stink out of those super dirty mats {mine are absolutely gross after a few weeks because of all the yoga I do outdoors!}!! Did you know you could simply throw your mats in the washing machine?? Now you do. Get a special coupon code here!
