Props To Your Mom
About Our Company
Props To Your Mom is a mother-daughter owned social venture. We are passionate about designing modern, sustainable support for a happy and healthy lifestyle. We mindfully source certified organic materials for our handmade meditation cushions, eye pillows, yoga mat bags and bolsters. We also offer a reclaimed line, sourced from repurposed or vintage fabrics. Each product line is designed and handmade locally (by us!).
Our Team
School prevention education counselor by day, seamstress extraordinaire by night, Lynne is the heart and soul of this creative operation. She is passionate about channeling her artistic energy into beautiful products that facilitate a healthy and peaceful experience for others.
Social worker by day, yoga teacher by night, conscious consumerism is central to Brittany's way of life. Props To Your Mom is her attempt to integrate her commitment to fostering diversity and inclusivity in the yoga community with her desire for the future of consumerism to be a more sustainable one. The cherry on top is the quality time she gets to spend dreaming and creating with her mom.
Mission & Values
Mission
Our mission is to design and create products that provide support for practitioners on a yogic path. Central to our mission is a commitment to fostering diversity and inclusivity within the yoga community. We believe that yoga (and the props that aid in its facilitation) should be available for all people and are honored to donate a portion of our profits to individuals and organizations who are committed to bringing yoga to underserved communities.

Values
Sustainability:
We are committed to a mindful production process that strengthens our vision of a more just and sustainable consumer economy. We believe that as consumers, we should do our best to know the origin of the items we bring into our lives. We take care when selecting the materials with which we construct our products so that you can rest easy and know that your purchase promotes just working conditions and environmentally friendly practices.
Inclusivity:
Yoga belongs to all of us, but far too many individuals and communities lack access to its transformative potential. We are deeply passionate about facilitating a path towards a more diverse and inclusive yoga community.
Support:
Because it's a universal need. We hope you consider these products part of your community. Allow them to support the path you are already on or perhaps be of comfort as you venture down a new one.
Style:
Ever have the experience of stepping over your mat or cushion on your way to your computer or phone in the morning? Us too. Aesthetics provoke positive emotions, which can foster intrinsic motivation and support learning. By designing products that are pleasing to the eye, we hope to facilitate a more consistent path to your practice. Sorry internet.

Cushions
Our cushions are designed to provide optimal comfort during meditation. Our modern aesthetics will enliven your space and encourage you to move towards your practice.
Cushions can also be used to make the long hours spent sitting at your J-O-B slightly less soul-crushing.
Each purchase supports our mission.
Eye pillows
Our eye pillows are filled with organic flax seed to provide gentle pressure and relieve tension around the eyes. The soothing aromatherapy of organic lavender and chamomile promotes restful sleep and enhances emotional well being. They're pretty much like fancy hotel bathrobes for your eyes.
Each purchase supports our mission.
