Restorative Evening Kit

Updated How we research

Restorative yoga works best when your body feels completely held, so this kit is all about support. A firm bolster and a folded blanket set the foundation, wedges fine-tune angles for your spine and wrists, sandbags add grounding weight, and an eye pillow signals your nervous system to switch off. Pair a few of these picks and even twenty minutes before bed starts to feel like a full reset. The page is split into six sections (Yoga Bolsters; Yoga Blankets; Eye Pillows; Restorative Yoga Kits; Yoga Bolster Wedges; Yoga Sandbags), followed by every pick ranked by our score so you can compare them in one place.
