The digestion of food and the digestion of life are intimately connected. If we're consuming food and activities that don't have prana or life force, the flow of our energy decreases. For example, if we consume heavily processed food regularly, it will affect our digestion and our mental capacity for life. It becomes a unhealthful cycle.Agni on a cellular level, allows us to process, transform and make good use of what we consume. When we consume things that have life force and sattvic qualities, agni can build tissue, make ojas strong and the mind stable.Join Myra Lewin, Founder of …

For many of us, the holiday season is approaching. If your festivities are laced with unhealthy customs, you risk aggravated doshas, weakened agni and tricky family dynamics. (Think sattva, rajas and tamas.) But with a little imagination and a sprinkling of courage, you can make wiser choices. You can create new traditions and make sattvic memories that you will cherish for years to come. Let’s face it: when we think about what we ate or drank, or the gifts we opened last year, we might be unable to remember what they were. We are more likely to have lasting impressions of special activities…

A nourishing and delicious meal which is great for grounding vata dosha. This is a particularly nice recipe from autumn through spring. If you are feeling creative, you could try adding different combinations of 60% augmenting and 40% extractive vegetables. The vegetables may be mixed into the kitchari (the rice and mung mix) or had as a separate side dish. Make sure to keep the 60/40 augmenting to extractive ratio. Check-in with an experienced practitioner if you feel you have a special condition to address.Avoid rajasic and tamasic vegetables, such as onion, garlic, radishes, potatoes, toma…
