Food is an important element and life-giving energy to the human body. The quality and types of food impact our physical and mental well-being. From a yogic perspective, food is much more than just a nutrition to the physical body. As a full-fledged yogic practice demands a proper supplementation of the body with nutrients, the energetic aspect of nutrition is also to be taken into consideration while determining your choice of diet.
Have you ever observed the impact that your food intake has been having upon your practice of yoga? The concept of Ayurveda, the sister science of yoga, enlightens us on the impact of different foods on our overall physical, spiritual and mental well-being. As per Ayurveda, “Sattva” denotes purity in quality of the self-control and spiritual well-being as apparent in the form of intelligence, virtue, awareness and happiness. Thus foods that are sattvic, promote purity in terms of both mind and body. They help nurture the mind, and make it clear, filled with compassion and keeps calm. A sattvic diet aids in sharpening your intellect. According to the Bhagavad-Gita, the sattvic diet is said to be light and easy–to–digest. Being enriched with prana or purity, it fosters positive thoughts and satisfaction of the mind. Following such a diet can keep you alert, refreshed and peaceful.
Following the teachings of Ayurveda, the students are provided with tasty vegetarian meals 3 times a day, along with organic tea, masala chai for breakfast and an evening tea break for the duration of the course. The food is prepared very hygienically with love by the experienced and lovely kitchen team members. The meals are unlimited buffet style. The food served has all of the various vegetarian dishes appropriate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The campus is located in the very peaceful area surrounded by the mountains and 3-min walk away from the holy river Ganga. Away from the main center where the traffic never stops, you get to experience the beautiful natural energy and focus on what you have come for.
