lying down to rest or relax when you are tired is very beneficial. A yoga mat on the floor doesn’t provide a lot of padding so many people might find it uncomfortable initially.

Yes, it will helps in back problem. If u r not doing yoga then if u sit n do chanting then lying down it will more beneficial. When we be on positive mindset and do any kriya it absorbs energy. I would recommend not to share yoga mat to everyone.that makes difference.
