This yoga mat will actually motivate you do to yoga

If you started 2016 off with the best intentions of doing more yoga but have failed to live up to it, cut yourself some slack and blame it on not having the right tools to keep you motivated. But be warned, after we introduce you to Yoga Design Lab’s new collection of yoga mats, you are no longer off the hook.

Never underestimate the power of a beautiful mat — and these ones are pretty spectacular. It’s the same feeling of having cool neon sneaks that you can’t wait to show off at the gym. Having fitness gear that makes you happy makes you more motivated to use it.

But Yoga Design Lab’s mats aren’t just pretty. The prints are all designed so yogis can track their alignment and posture during each and every pose, based on the lines and angles used. Hey, geometry does come in handy after all!

The mats are also eco-friendly, made from biodegradable tree rubber and $1 from each sale is donated to Urban Youth Yoga Programs. Check out the collection here.
