What’s the difference between round bolsters and square?
First let me tell you that its a personal choice. However, what I have seen throughout several yoga studios, classes and retreats is that the round bolster are the most used.
Round Bolsters
Realistically shape your body regardless of body type
You’ll be able to do the most amount of asanas with them
Last longer as far as firmness
Square Bolsters
Specific body types
Limited to asanas you’ll be able to do
Loose their firmness quicker.
Take less storage space
Again, you don’t need a bolster to find joy in yoga and to get the full benefits of Yin. Having a bolster may seem like a luxury but in reality its your personal teacher when there’s no teacher around. The way you can approach your mat just to lay on it is the same way you can use your bolster. Having a bolster and spending time with it even seems as if you’re receiving a giant hug!
Your recovery time will seem as if its going faster
Gentle approach to awareness and acceptance
Whether you choose round or square your body will thank you.
