Description

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

• 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
