Why Sattvic Food?
Sattvic food is based on the Ayurvedic concept of sattva—purity, clarity, and balance. It’s known to:
Improve energy and mood
Enhance meditation and yoga practice
Support long-term health and immunity
Calm the nervous system and reduce inflammation
We prepare our meals mindfully, often in silence, with mantras or prayers to infuse the food with healing energy.
