WHY BUY SHAKTI?
Since the creation of the Shakti Mat in 2007 there have been many imitations, but few are crafted with the same values. Here are 5 reasons why the Shakti Mat is a worthwhile investment in wellbeing.
1. DESIGN
Our products are crafted with meticulous attention to detail, combining timeless aesthetics with modern functionality to create pieces that elevate your everyday experience.
2. CRAFT
Keeping tradition alive is essential to an ancient practice. That’s why we work with partners who employ local craftspeople to make each Shakti Mat by hand. This process starts with a piece of cotton and ends with a product that’s individually created for you. You are part of a process that allows craft and quality to thrive.
3. Ethically made
Everyone creating Shakti Mats and acupressure tools should be provided meaningful and fulfilling employment. That’s why we ensure our partners meet or exceed labor standards, and provide a range of additional employee benefits. When you lie on your Shakti Mat you can relax knowing your wellbeing tools look after more than your wellbeing.
4. Ethically sourced
Everyone is responsible for their environmental impact. It's one reason why we use certified organic cotton and dyes, and, among other initiatives, plant a tree for every Shakti Mat sold.
5. Positive impact
Wellbeing involves more than just ourselves, it extends to how we look after others. That’s why Shakti donates at least 10% of profits to causes important to humanity and the planet. Your purchase helps to create positive change.
