Grab a spray bottle from the cheap shop (also grab a travel sized one to carry with the mat if you wish).
For a travel sized container use:
1 cup of distilled water
vinegar or witch-hazel (optional)
Tea tree oil
Eucalyptus oil (or lavender)
Use a 2:1 ratio for the tea tree/eucalyptus - I use the cheap double d stuff from the supermarket. Approx 10 drops of Tea Tree to 5 drops of Eucalyptus. Both of these are antibacterial oils.
Either saturate your mat & let it air dry (great to do at home), or spray the mat and wipe it down (great after a sweaty class).
I'm out of mine, will have to make some more for the mat at home, plus for when I get my new mat in a couple of weeks time.
off course the costly mats are more cushioned, comfortable, easy, and light, so they don't give you any hesitation during yoga. Cheap ones are also do the same but quality differs a lot. And for yoga clean, noise free and comfortable environment is necessary.
