🎉 Exciting News: Transform Stress into Strength with Our Restorative Yoga Deck & YACEP Training!
4 months ago – Tue, Oct 15, 2024 at 10:42:04 AM

Hey everyone!

We’re thrilled to share some incredible news with you—after months of hard work and dedication, we’ve officially created the Restorative Yoga Deck and launched our YACEP Certification Training! 🎊

🌿 Why Restorative Yoga?

Restorative yoga has been life-changing for so many people, and we’re passionate about spreading its benefits far and wide. If you’ve ever felt the weight of stress, tension, or emotional overwhelm, restorative yoga offers the perfect way to reset both your mind and body. It’s a practice that focuses on deep relaxation, using props and mindful breathing techniques to gently release physical and emotional blockages.

Whether you’re looking to let go of stress or seeking to deepen your understanding of the connection between the body and emotions, restorative yoga is an incredible tool for anyone.

💡 What’s in the Restorative Deck?

Our new Restorative Yoga Deck is designed to guide you through this deeply healing practice. It includes:

72 beautifully illustrated cards that provide step-by-step instructions for poses, breathing techniques, and somatic practices.

• A manual that delves into the theory behind restorative yoga, offering you the knowledge and tools to make the most out of your practice.

🎓 Our First YACEP Certification Training
 

We’re also beyond excited to introduce our very first YACEP (Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider) Certification Course! This self-paced, 25-hour training is the perfect opportunity for yoga teachers and practitioners to gain deep knowledge of restorative yoga, with the bonus of earning continuing education credits certified by Yoga Alliance.

In this course, we cover everything from:

• The fundamentals of restorative yoga,

• How emotions and trauma are stored in the body, and how restorative yoga can help release them,

• Breathing techniques and the role of props,

• And much more!

Plus, we’ve included personalized feedback and in-depth support to help you fully integrate these practices into your teaching or personal routine.

We couldn’t have done this without your support, and we’re so grateful for our amazing community. 🙏 We hope this new deck and YACEP training will help you find balance, emotional freedom, and a deeper connection to your practice.

Thank you all for being part of this journey with us!

With love and excitement,

The PlayPauseBe Team


 

The PlayPauseBe Yoga Deck has gone YIN... 🚀🌚
over 2 years ago – Tue, Aug 09, 2022 at 05:54:44 PM

Hi everyone, 

Last Thursday, after a year of hard work, we finally opened the pre-orders for our brand new YIN yoga deck.🥳  (If you receive our newsletter, follow us on Instagram, or are part of our Facebook Group you already know about it ... if you don't, keep reading!)


This is so exciting! Something that thousands of our community members have been asking for a long time.

As you know, we are always interested to know what our PlayPauseBe'ers want to see next. So we listened to your ideas and created exactly what you were asking for, a brand new deck dedicated solely to YIN YOGA.


With stress on the rise, having effective physical and mental relief practices is essential.

As you probably know, yoga is proven to reduce stress. However, did you know that Yin yoga, in particular, has a significant, positive impact on our mental health?


This is partly due to Yin yoga's effect on the nervous system. When dealing with life's daily stressors, we are in what is known as the sympathetic nervous system (the fight or flight mode).

The sympathetic nervous system helps us respond to threats and challenges, but in turn, it shuts down critical bodily processes like our ability to digest food, thoughts, and emotions.

That’s basically why phenomena such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), anxiety, and panic attacks are so widespread in the western world.

So, if you lead an intense life, chances are you are going to have a hard time dealing with stress.

“If we spend most of our time in fight or flight mode, our bodies cannot rest and heal.”

Then what about trying the benefits of Yin Yoga?


Yin Yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system (the rest and digest mode). And this:


  • lowers your heart rate and blood pressure
  • relaxes your muscles;
  • aids digestion;
  • fights infection;
  • increases immune response;
  • releases feel-good endorphins;
  • and much more.

Now, imagine how much your body and mind could benefit from a daily yin yoga practice…

Thanks to the brand new PlayPauseBe YIN Deck, you can create a nourishing home Yin practice, regardless of your level or experience.

The beautiful illustrations, easy-to-read cues, and 85-page printed manual in the box are just a few reasons why creating yin sequences is effortless.


There is no better time to start a Yin practice as pre-order for the YIN Deck is NOW open, where you can take advantage of the special early bird offers: 


You can choose among three different early bird options, you get a boatload of FREE value, if you just pre-order your YIN deck TODAY.

What’s more, you’ll be in the front row to receive your Yin Deck, as soon as it is produced and ready to ship! (Avoiding long waiting times, and tedious out-of-stocks.)


The early bird offers are available for a VERY LIMITED number of decks, as we can only guarantee these prices for a limited amount of orders. After that, we’ll have to raise prices. Above all for the Yin Yoga PRO bundle which is an absolute no-brainer at early bird price.

That’s why we suggest you act fast before they are all gone.

Intrigued about how a Yin Yoga deck can uplevel your self-practice and help you feel better?

With Love,

Shipping Update - US and Canada🎉
over 4 years ago – Sat, Oct 24, 2020 at 02:08:28 AM

Hello everyone!


The time has finally come for our north american backers to receive their decks!!! The production has now arrived in the US ( Huston) and will be at the warehouse in Dallas by the end of this week. 

We will start shipping in the beginning of next week 🥳🥳🥳

We’re on track (yey!!!),  the warehouse will do their very best to get all the orders processed as soon as possible. Right now they are understaffed because of Covid so they are able to process around 300 - 350 orders a day but they are working to get to 500 - 550.  Once an order have been shipped it will get anywhere in the US in 5-7 working days, 7-10 days for Canada.

By the time your order has been processed at the warehouse and is on its way, you will get an email with tracking information. Please do also check your spam here, as it might end up there from experience.

We urge you to be patient until the 16th of November, the warehouse should have processed all orders by then. 

If some of you still need to change their address this is the moment to do it. Please send us a private message or an email at: [email protected]


Again, sorry for the delays and thank you for being patient with us, we are doing our best to make each and everyone one of you happy🙏 

Have a lovely day ❤️

Namaste,

Tine

Shipping Update 🎉
over 4 years ago – Thu, Sep 24, 2020 at 06:48:37 PM

Hello everyone! 

The European shipping (which includes all countries except US and Canada) from the warehouse is almost completed 🎉. By the end of the week all orders will be on their way to you 🥳 

Many of you have already received the decks! And for the ones that have not received them it is just a matter of days. 

For the US and Canada, shipping will take longer than we told you on our previous update. We are terribly sorry for this. Unfortunately the only option was to send all the decks for US and Canada (we produce in Europe) by boat and then fulfil the shipping to you with an US based warehouse. Our Broker, at the end of August, told us that the decks would have arrived in Dallas (US) by the end of this week but unfortunately that wasn't correct.

The good news is that the ship has departed from Germany and it is on its way to the US. Talking with our warehouse in the US they could actually inform us that we've been lucky, as MANY shipments are actually cancelled or completely blocked. They also told us that the timeframe from the production facility to the US is actually good (current situation considered). We're still sorry for this - the decks are on their way, as soon as they pass customs in US we can give you a more accurate timeframe. The estimate right now is to start shipping from the US warehouse between the 22nd and 26th of October. 

Hope, again, you will have patience with us, we are not Amazon and this is our first Kickstarter campaign, we are doing our best to make each and everyone one of you happy🙏 Please do not hesitate to send us a message should you have any questions about your order. We will answer to each one of you ❤️

We are super excited to get you feedback when you get the decks, and see you actually use them 🥰

Have a fantastic day ❤️

Namaste,

Tine
