Why your food preferences are important;
Cravings for different types of food, whether it's spicy, salty, sweet, fast food or natural organic can have as much to do with your personality as it does your taste buds.
But whatever the reason, you can be very sure that your food preferences are going to have a major impact on your life.
The foods you choose to eat will have an affect on;
You get the idea. What you eat will to a very large degree influence what kind of health and enjoyment you achieve in life.
Food has an affect on us all, physically, mentally and many would say spiritually as well.
Food and your spiritual balance;
In Ayurvedic medicine practice there is a strong belief in eating to balance your dosha. The spiritual nutrition principles are based around three doshas;
- Vayu
- Pitta
- Kapha
By eating the correct foods for the dosha which is in most alignment with your shakra, you maintain harmony within the body, by soothing the dosha.
Recommendations for each are;
Vayu - warm foods with moderately heavy texture. See more here
Pitta - cool or warm with moderately heavy texture and bitter, sweet and astringent tastes. See more here
Kapha - warm and light foods without much water. See more here
