đż Eat Like a Yogi
Because food isnât just fuelâitâs energy, clarity, and connection.
Hey there, Yogi!
The ancient yogis didnât count macros, skip carbs, or chase protein.
They simply asked:
âHow does this make me feel?â
This week, weâre turning inwardânot to restrict, but to listen.
Because your body already knows what it needs.
Youâve just forgotten how to hear it.
đż Yoga Deep Dive
The Subtle Art of Nourishing Yourself
In Ayurveda, food is called âOjas-buildingâ when it fuels not just the body, but the soul.
And in modern science?
We're starting to learn that digestion isnât just physicalâit's emotional, mental, even energetic.
Your gut and brain talk. Constantly.
And when theyâre out of sync, you feel it: anxiety, fatigue, bloating, fog.
But when you nourish with presenceâ
you return to clarity.

(Without Counting or Judging)
After your next meal, ask:
Did this give me energy or take it?
How do I feel in my mood, mind, and belly?
What would I tweak next time?
You donât need a spreadsheet.
You need awareness.

Yoga in Everyday Life
Eat With Intention, Not Rules
đ Add lemon to warm water before meals
đž Favor warm, cooked foods over cold salads when feeling anxious
