Publisher's Synopsis
How we eat is perhaps the most impactful way we bring the ethics of yoga into our everyday lives. By bringing awareness to how we nourish ourselves through our food choices -physically and spiritually-we can cultivate greater well-being on and off the mat. In The Yoga Plate, LA-based yoga power-couple Tamal and Victoria Dodge introduce readers to the yogic philosophy of ahimsa, or non-harm, along with 108 healthy, delicious recipes organized around a yoga practice: "Morning Meditations" includes smoothies and breakfasts to fuel and power you through the day; "A Plate Full of Prana" shares snacks, soups and salads to revitalize your system; "A Bowl Full of Yin" has recipes to help cultivate a peaceful state; and "Sweet Savasana" presents restorative and beneficial dessert options. A well-rounded yoga practice includes a conscious approach to the things we eat. Filled with gorgeous photography and yoga bonuses-such as mantras and meditations to incorporate into your food preparation-The Yoga Plate makes each meal an opportunity to support both our practice and well-being.
