This month, we tapped Arcade Fire violinist and Moksha yoga teacher Sarah Neufeld to bring us into her world of music and movement. Today&amp;#039;s installment: Neufeld&amp;#039;s essentials for life on the tour bus.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ll spare you the iPod-and-laptop boredom and skip right to the Manduka eKO superlite travel yoga mat. It&amp;#039;s so thin and works like a charm (i.e. is perfectly sticky). It makes keeping up with my yoga practice a snap when I don&amp;#039;t have time to check out a studio or find a class.&amp;quot;    Photo: Courtesy of Amazon   &amp;quot;I love to run, particularly when traveling, and the only headphones I don&amp;#039;t sweat out of commission are my Powerbeats by Dr. Dre. A complete necessity.&amp;quot;    Photo: Courtesy of Amazon   &amp;quot;Being on tour can mean lots of to-go meals\u2014so I like to challenge myself to create less garbage while traveling. Especially since I&amp;#039;m a big water, coffee, and tea drinker, I always carry by 16 oz. vacuum-insulated Klean Kanteen. It keeps liquids hot or cold for so long. Also, I bring along stainless steel food containers and reusable cutlery to help offset how much plastic waste goes along with ordering food. There are lots of great companies making these smart, eco-friendly products now; To-Go Ware and Lunch-bots are my favorites.&amp;quot;    Photo: Courtesy of Amazon   &amp;quot;In my bag I always have a few pieces of Satya jewelry. I discovered the NYC-based jewelry maker near my yoga studio in Manhattan&amp;#039;s West Village. They carry lovely, simple designs inspired by traditional yogic teachings. I love the golden hand and the lotus flower symbols in particular.&amp;quot;    Photo: Courtesy of Satya Jewelry   &amp;quot;Lastly, I couldn&amp;#039;t survive weeks on the road without my Kindle\u2014how are you supposed to choose just one book? I always need a variety of escapes, as well as a healthy dose of Pema Ch\u00F6dr\u00F6n (The Wisdom of No Escape is my favorite).&amp;quot;    Photo: Courtesy of Amazon   "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
