This is probably my favourite and most important podcast to date. Judgement within the Yoga community around food choices is real; and it’s a super challenging subject to talk about. While I think veganism can be a wonderful expression of Ahimsa, it may not be suitable for all body’s and it can be irresponsible and inappropriate to try and fit all people into this external ideal. This episode is all about understanding how to approach our nutrition from a place of discipline and ease, and how this can parallel our asana practice. In this episode I go over: - How there is NO one size fits all approach to nutrition - The Yogic/Ayurvedic view of cosmic manifestation, and how we need to recognize this in our food choices. - The role and value of discipline in our sadhana and in our food choices - The parallel between ashtanga and eating real food - The danger of being overly dogmatic and obsessing over external protocols - How nutrition and Ashtanga are both practices of discernment and how this can be valuable in helping us cultivate positive discipline and conscious habits around food. - How nutrition labels are problematic and arise from a place of ego. - How to responsibly source animal products You can Download the Dosha quiz here: https://www.yogifuel.com/Dosha-Quiz Want to bring more Ayurveda into your life, and create grounding routines to help you keep calm?
