What is a Sattvic Diet?
A sattvic diet is a vegetarian way of eating based on the ancient Indian philosophy of sattva. Sattva refers to the quality of balance, harmony, and purity.
The goal of a sattvic diet is to promote overall wellbeing by nourishing the body and mind with fresh, natural foods. This diet emphasizes eating:
- Organic, seasonal fruits and vegetables
- Whole grains and legumes
- Dairy products from pasture-raised cows
- Nuts, seeds, healthy oils
- Herbal teas and spices to add flavor
Foods are prepared in a manner that preserves their natural essences. The sattvic diet minimizes processed and refined foods along with pungent spices, strong herbs, and stimulants like coffee.
In addition to diet, sattvic living integrates other lifestyle factors that cultivate inner peace and balance. This includes practices like yoga, meditation, and spending time in nature.
The sattvic diet reflects the principle of ahimsa, or non-violence, by avoiding meat, fish and alcohol. It provides a light, purified diet that creates health and wellbeing by harmonizing the body, mind, and spirit.
