Benefits of the Veda Mat: 
Wellness: Ayurveda explains that there are 72,000 nerve endings in your hands and feet, which connect to every part of your body and serve as a gateway to releasing stress and synthesizing communication to every part of your body.
Lymphatic circulation: Healthy friction created by walking on the Veda Mat creates bio-electricity which helps to move lymphatic fluid throughout the body. 
Stress release: Putting healthy pressure on the hands and feet is like squeezing a sponge, releasing stress from the sponge like tissues in the body.
Getting started with the Veda Mat:

FAQ:
When I walk on the Veda mat my feet are really sensitive. Is that OK? 
According to Ayurveda, sensitivity in our nerve endings is an indicator that stress is built up in our body. If you are feeling very sensitive to walk the mat, use a thick handkerchief or t-shirt to take the edge off the sharpness.
