Mitahara: The Yogic Way of Eating
Mitahara: The Yogic Way of Eating
Food is more than fuel—it shapes your health, energy, and even your state of mind. The Yogis have long known what science now confirms: a whole-food, plant-based, low-fat vegan diet is the key to vitality, longevity, and inner peace.
At the Ashram, we follow the Satvic diet, designed to detox, rejuvenate, and uplift. Our meals nourish the body, clear the mind, lighten the mood, and enhance energy, all while supporting deep Yogic practice. The 80/10/10 balance—80% carbohydrates, 10% fat, and 10% protein—is proven to prevent and even reverse chronic disease, promoting radiant health from the inside out.
But don’t just take our word for it—our guests rave about the food! Many say they’d come back just for the meals (see for yourself in our Google Reviews!).
Join us at a festival, retreat, or weekly yoga & meditation class, and experience the profound difference of eating like a Yogi!
