Excellent Excellent !! Really enjoyed seeing this Alexia, thank you

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

You are very welcome Donnie! Thank you for your support :-)

[@NaturallyKarli]

An hour and a half of practice every day?! You are an inspiration. I've also been in love with long walks lately. Such a great outlet! I love being out in nature to recharge. Thanks for giving us a peek into your day.

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Thank you for watching! Soon enough I'll have a very different daily life! At least finally on a close-ish time zone to all you guys

[@theminimalistninja]

YESSS!! I just discovered this in 2021 I believe - washing your rice changes the game! It cooks so much better in my opinion!! Just re-discovered your channel - love your videos! PS: You also inspired me to keep practicing those damn handstands!! :)

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

YAY!!! Nina nice to hear there's another "yes always wash the rice" person watching! And thanks for the lovely feedback :-) I'm not amazing at handstands but I'm actually right in the middle of a 30 day handstand challenge which I'll post soon. Hopefully you'll be a handstand master by the time I post it!

[@jacquelineperry4350]

Just discovered your channel and really enjoying it! Oh, and yes...always wash your rice before you cook it 😊👍

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

[@geovanascalia8187]

Love love these vlogs 🙌🏼💕 keep them coming please! I wish I could take your class! I am doing a 30 day yoga challenge ⭐️ I am on day four! Feeling good but I’m not sure if I am doing some moves correctly 🥺

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Thank you so much for the lovely comment! And well done for for doing a 30 day challenge! As a rule of thumb, if you feel pain or discomfort, ease off. Always listen to your body. I'll try to post some practice videos with a lot of explanation so you should hopefully find them helpful :-)

[@geovanascalia8187]

Thank you 🙏🏼💓that would be awesome 💕💕💕 can’t wait for those..

[@DoctorNicole]

This is a beautiful video! I knew your practices were amazing, but you’ve got the vlogging skill set too!!

[@elizabethwarick3042]

Good morning Alexia I love your videos. This is a comment about the rice! I could never cook rice properly. It was always starchy and mushy. Then a KZbin video changed all that. You wash the rice to remove excess starch. I put it in the pot and pour cold water in, swish it around with my fingers until the water is all whitish, pour it out and repeat until the water is pretty clear. I do this for all types of rice except arborio when I make risotto. A game changer. I can't remember which video I watched but it was a Thai cooking channel. Hot Thai kitchen? something like that. So yes. Everybody wash your rice!!!!

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

I love this message! Haha yes everyone, wash your rice!!

[@wsc24660]

Fun peek into your life. I would love a siesta every day--I'm very jealous! Btw, I've washed rice always before making it, because it washes away any bits of non-rice as well as a layer of starch you don't want gumming up your rice! 🍚

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Oh yes I now always wash the rice! And its funny how this was totally new information when I got the rice cooker! And yes, siesta is the best time of the day! Much needed especially when I finish teaching at 9pm!

[@ellep6548]

Hi Alexia! I just discovered your channel and I really enjoy it. I was wondering if your yoga studio is in Athens.

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Elle that’s great to hear! I’m in the north of Greece (a little town called Drama) :-)

[@alicetrieu4182]

Hi Alexia, where are you located at? I love that phrase - Ekam Inhale on the shirt.

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Alice I live in Greece! I actually bought my shirt a few years ago in India, and it's a brand from Canada: ekaminhale.com/collections/ekaminhale-collection/products/heart-chakra-tank-women-s-racerback?variant=32952465686660

[@realTLC]

So a calming beautiful day ❤️ BTW, Asian rice usually needs be washed in most cases. Unless you buy the prewashed. That's how I learned it anyway. :)

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Ah yes the rice washing has made me wonder about all the asian rice I cooked before getting my rice cooker and never washed! Better late than never!

[@thenakedsingularity]

what kind of coffee do you drink by the way?

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Good question! I grind my single origin coffee beans (I can’t remember the location I bought from this time) and then add coconut milk :-)

[@thenakedsingularity]

really awesome.

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Thanks a lot!

[@Leraleralera]

Very inspiring 🙏🏻

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

I’m happy to hear you found it inspiring :-)

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@adithyaraj307]

In India we wash the rice before cooking it, it's very quite common especially in south India cause we eat a lot of rice.........😁✌

[@dudu-yoga4571]

I would like to know Isha Yoga ;) Thank you so much

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

I have never practiced Isha yoga! Have you?

[@dudu-yoga4571]

[@ThisYogaLife-ak]

It can be!

[@sirensynapse5603]

Jesus girl, you are sitting next to a gigantic 4-antennae router, cell phone and laptop all frying every cell in your body with intense microwaves. Ouch. That is utterly, completely not a healthy thing to do.
