Feeling fluorescent? I'm loving these bright pieces with a new wave twist. Nike's 80's inspired top is made with a comfortable fabric that keeps you dry, and I love the tiny touch of day-glow green. I also adore this lava orange duffle bag, it's lightweight which is perfect for me so I don't have to worry about how much I put in it, plus it's a bargain at $39.50. Lastly, even though I haven't been on one in years, I still love these skateboard sneakers with neon accents.

Can you believe it's already September? As I put together this month's intention board, I thought about the mixture of excitement and trepidation I used to feel about heading back to school each year. Sometimes it was an intense transition to go return to long days of studying after the lazy, luxurious days of summer.

I didn't know it at the time but it required what's known in yoga as tapas -- sometimes translated as fiery discipline -- for me to get back to that place of deep concentration. But when I did, it was worth it! I learned more and I enjoyed school more.

And so, even though I'm not heading back to hit the books this year, I'm going to honor this time of year and set the intention to invoke the fiery discipline of tapas in my yoga practice and in all that I do.

What's your intention this month?
