Book excerpt: A Sattvik diet is a pure vegetarian diet which includes seasonal fresh fruit, ample of fresh vegetables, whole grain, pulses, sprouts, dried nuts, seeds, honey, fresh herbs, milk and dairy products which are free from animal rennet. These foods raise sattva or our consciousness levels. Sattva in your life Ayurveda was originally grounded in the idea that we can experience freedom from suffering by coming into harmony with the four pillars of health, which include: Ahar: Eating foods that nourish our bodies and minds Vihar: Living in alignment with nature's rhythms Nidra: Appropriate sleep Brahmacharya: Management of our energy, particularly sexual energy - both in our physical actions and in our minds. We come into balance in these four areas of life by increasing sattva. This guide aims to provide information on ahar - eating sattvic foods that connect you with your higher consciousness. Sattvic foods are grown with mindful practices (organic, non-GMO, ideally from your own garden). They digest easily and provide the strength and vitality you are meant to naturally have.
