The Sanskrit word Sattva means something that gives energy, clean, pure natural, vital, and conscious. It is one of the three spiritual qualities, the other two are Rajas and Tamas.
The Satvik diet is a purely vegetarian diet that includes seasonally fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, pulses, sprouts, nuts, seeds, honey, fresh herbs, milk, and dairy products that are free from animal cruelty and drinking a lot of spring water. These foods raise satvik qualities such as a light body, calmness, peaceful mind, serenity and help to achieve a meditative state. It is the diet of true Yogis, and it is recommended to all the guests who came for detox, rejuvenation, Pancha Karma treatments or anyone who is open to explore, experience or live a healthy and mindful lifestyle.
