Satvik Yogshala cares about your health so that we serve the most delicious, healthy, vegetarian/vegan diet for you. According to India’s biggest science of health, Ayurveda, the nature of the body is completely dependent and influenced by food. If food is good, so is your health, and peace of mind.
Yoga believes the body is made of five elements and food also contains five elements and has six tastes. When we consume food that contains each element that is called a balanced diet or yogic diet. The whole science of Ayurveda is based on these principles. Everyone has different tastes. This is not only because of their habits but it is because of what actually the body needs. When we consume food without proper knowledge of what our body needs, we create diseases. However, when we consume food that has all the necessary elements, we are healthy and satisfied.
Yogic food contains proper nutrients that the body needs to grow. Consuming too little or too much food is also very risky for our health, so a holistic diet is very important. Yogis always avoid tamasic food like meat, egg, etc. Avoiding tamasic food helps you become more flexible and compassionate. Listen to Guruji’s lecture on Vegetarianism.
A vegetarian or a healthy diet consists of green vegetables, fresh fruits, lentils, beans, plant-based oils like coconut, mustard, peanuts etc. This kind of food is easy to digest and makes us feel lighter, at peaceful, and conscious.
Our body and mind need free time to relax. Exploring the beauty of Rishikesh along with this course makes learning more fun. On Sundays, we arrange excursion tours to places like Kunjapuri Temples, Beatles Ashram, Parmarth Nikethan, Vashishta Cave, etc. The Course fee is all-inclusive of these tours. During Sundays, we serve only breakfast. You can enjoy lunch and dinner outdoors from amazing local restaurants and get to know more about Rishikesh food culture.
Teachers are the one that makes your learning easy and flawless. All our teachers are 500-RYT with a minimum of 10 years of teaching experience. We strive to have a friendly environment between our teachers and students so that learning becomes easy and fun. Our extremely knowledgeable set of teachers led by Guru Vishnu will guide you in every way possible during your training as well as help you in transforming your life for the better.
