Philadelphia Yoga Exchange

We are so grateful to all that supported our first t-shirt campaign. It was unexpected and we would call it a total success as we were able to pay a few of our bills this month from the proceeds. As a way to give back we launched a second campaign, this time all proceeds will benefit local Philabundance, whose work in the community speaks for itself. If you're looking for a way to give back and grab some cool swag, sweatshirts are available this time around which everyone needs on these cool Spring nights! #PYX #Philabundance #BonfireCampaign #SpringArts #PhillyYogaTeachers

Happy Earth Day! As we personally make the switch to being lower waste users, we accept that we may not always be perfect but that every day we can make choices to cultivate better habits. Over time it'll become second nature. One of our favorite items we've begun using this year is the #albatrossrazor by @albatross_sailing, a simple switch, and new habits include reusing egg cartons and filling them with local eggs, composting in our backyard, swapping out paper towels with... swedish dish cloths, & hang drying our clothes. What's a small switch you've made this year or habit your working on? Image posted this morning by our friends at @thewastenotshop #earthday #nelsonmandelaquotes

Hi Hay House community, Matteo Pistono's Books here for guided Belly Breathing meditation During out last session, a few people asked for a Belly Breathingso ...that’s what we have today. Breathing deeply in and out of belly activates our relaxation response in the body, grounding us, and helping us release stress and anxiety. I’ll guide you in the practice and we will use a counting technique to breath out for a little longer than we breath in. This is a great practice to do seated or lying down so take up a comfortable position and let’s get started! Thanks for your continued feedback and let me know in the comments where you are mediating from and your experience with all of these meditations on Facebook. As always, I’ll be answering any questions you have about this practice, or meditation in general. And as we have done in our previous meditation practice, we send our love and appreciation to all the health care workers, grocery stores and delivery folks, drivers and farmers, who are taking care of our health and nutritionmay they be safe and find all the strength they need.

Daily stretch!!

Group stretch 4/2/20

Like all small businesses that are closed due to COVID-19, our yoga studio could use some support right now. If you feel called to help, we have set up a t-shirt campaign with a - somewhat lofty goal - of selling 100 t-shirts within three weeks!! This is a great, easy way to help us right now while also getting yourself some cool #PYX swag. Be sure to click through the t-shirt options as there are men & women's styles and many colors to choose from! All t-shirts have our favo...rite quote by Viktor Frankl on the front: "That which gives light must endure burning." This quote hangs in the entryway of our yoga studio for all to see when they enter. We thought we knew "hard" before, but never did we quite expect what the world is presently going through. These words are carrying us more than ever these days. Thank you in advance for your support & kindness. We love you. #smallbusinesses #wellness #bonfire #covid19 #covidrelief #phillyyogateachers #yogastudio #viktorfrank

Home Practice, You Take.

Virtual Kundalini Yoga & Meditation this Saturday with Joe Longo!!

"I encourage you to adopt my motto: doing any yoga, under any circumstances, for any amount of time, at any time, with no additional expectations or obligations is better than doing none. Setting the bar low helps me to have a commitment to doing a little yoga every day so that I gain the ally of consistency. From the perspective of consistency simply getting in there and doing something is more important than any other factor such as how intense, long, short, insightful, inspiring, frustrating, joyous, boring or other. And also interruptions that cause you to stop and then start again weaken your connection to yoga even if you are on fire when you are practicing between stops or even when worthy things call you away. Hence my motto that even a tiny bit of daily practice wins the day!" David Garrigues
