Yoga is about bringing a positive change in your body and mind, thereby bringing an overall transformation. Yoga is not just limited to your yoga hall, but it also extends to your dining table. Hence, it is important to maintain a healthy diet. At Rishikesh Yoga Association, they serve a Satvik diet to the yoga teacher trainees. The Satvik diet which includes vegetables, fruits, and so on is considered to be the best diet to keep a light and healthy body.

Food which tends to make one’s body either too lethargic or hyperactive is avoided. Rishikesh Yoga Association makes sure that the kitchen area and the food is clean and hygienic. Also, the food is freshly prepared for immediate consumption because it gives the best results. Consuming the Satvik diet for a few days will automatically satiate your body needs, and your body will not crave for any unhealthy food.

Along with the food, it is also important to keep a check on the time that you consume. The classes and the food breaks are so scheduled that the food benefits you the most.
