If the diet isn't proper, then medicine has no value. If the diet is correct, medicine is not needed.Ayurvedic Proverb
Consuming the right food is a crucial aspect of a healthy lifestyle. Many believe that doing yoga is enough and that they do not need to control their diet. We consider yoga to be more than just a form of exercise for our body and mind, but a complete framework for a joyful and healthy Life. Ayurveda, also systematized by sage Patanjali, is Yoga’s sister science, and the combination of both ensures a long life free of suffering.
The food we consume isn't just to maintain our physical health but also to maintain good mental well-being. Food, in the Yogic system, is classified differently than by modern science. Instead of dividing and categorizing food into carbohydrates, proteins, or fast food, Yoga and Ayurveda classify foods as Satvic, Rajasic and Tamasic.
Tamasic foods make us feel lazy. Rajasic food can make you active and cause tension, whereas sattvic foods make you feel energized, enthusiastic yet light.
Our staff is focused on the well-being of all students. As such, everyone is required to adhere to a sattvic lifestyle during their time in training. A Sattvic diet helps the body to get rid of toxins and relaxes the mind.
Mimamsa Yogshaala’s Chef has years of experience working at five star hotels in India and abroad. All food is prepared with care and attention, to maintain its purity and nutritional value, contributing to an optimized ttc experience.
Ingestion of too much or much food can lead to problems, even if you're eating healthy foods. Excess eating can lead to lethargy and fatigue while eating less than you require will not provide enough energy to get you through your daily activities.
We may know our stomachs are full, but we still consume more simply because we like the flavor. It is impossible to determine the correct amount of food a person requires by using scales and other measurement methods since each person requires the right amount of food to perform at a high level. Therefore, we need to pay attention to our body's signals when it tells us to stop eating.
It is believed that the mind of the person who is cooking and eating also influences the food. The energy of food prepared by someone when angry will undoubtedly be lower than those who cook it with a sense of happiness, joy, and appreciation.
A soothing tune or chanting while cooking or eating can help preserve the Prana (life energy force) present in food. We highly recommend considering the food we eat, as the oldest Indian texts state that we are the food we consume!
Balanced and nutritious diet is fundamental for the nourishment of the mind and body. Mimamsa Yoga Ashram offers fresh organic vegetarian food, three times a day during your stay. We carefully cook all meals with traditional and ayurvedic ingredients that contain amazing healing properties and are provided in the optimal proportion for your best performance during the training.
