In my studio at Aham Yoga, I have students who have some knowledge of Ayurveda and I would often get so many questions about what the role of food is. How should we really eat? How frequently should we eat and in what quantity? This is honestly a topic that I am no expert with and so I decided to invite back a past guest who is the real expert in Ayurveda, Nidhi Pandya.
Episode Highlights:
- The role of food in our lives according to Ayurveda
- The three pillars of health in Ayurveda
- The connection between the ahara (food) and prana
- Does Ayurveda look at cooked food and raw food differently?
- The effects of green juices and smoothies on our bodies
- How the yogis ate and their relationship to food
- What is a sattvic diet?
- Does doing yoga mean one should only eat a vegetarian diet
- Does the food we eat affect the quality of our minds and our thoughts
- Ayurveda’s approach to the frequency of meals, what to eat, and in what quantity
- Practical tips for modern-day yoga practitioners to live more holistically
