Food
Yogic food
What we eat not only influences our physical well-being, but also our emotions and thoughts. Yoga does not dissect food into proteins, carbohydrates, or fats; instead, it classifies them according to the effect they have on the body and mind, into three types – Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas.
- Sattvic food is the kind that makes you feel energetic and enthusiastic.
- Rajasic food brings about activity or restlessness.
- Tamasic food is the kind of food that makes one lethargic or sluggish.
