练瑜伽的人都吃些什么 | What's a yogic diet?
昆达利尼瑜伽大师Bhajan鼓励他的学生们建立一个健康的瑜伽士的生活方式。瑜伽饮食倡导整体性、简单、新鲜、有营养的饮食方式。瑜伽饮食不包括肉类、鱼类、家禽及鸡蛋。即使不吃这些食物，你也完全可以获得所需的蛋白质、维生素和矿物质。
什么是瑜伽饮食？
瑜伽饮食包括以下几类食物：
水果
坚果
蔬菜
谷物
豆类
乳制品（不包含鸡蛋）
全面的、新鲜的、未经过加工的营养食物给你的身体带来充沛的精力和能量。当你的饮食由这些营养持续的食物组成，并且适量控制饮食，不吃自己消化不了的食物，那么你就在朝着一个更加健康、快乐和充满灵性的生活方式迈进。
关于乳制品:
乳 制品（除了鸡蛋）仍然被包含在瑜伽饮食中，这是因为如果你联系昆达利尼瑜伽以及火式呼吸法，你的身体会产生更多的粘液。粘液能能帮助你的呼吸道更加润滑， 保护呼吸道粘膜。所以你需要给身体补充一定量的粘液，乳制品能帮助身体产生粘液。如果你对牛奶过敏，可以选择更容易消化的羊奶。
关于悦性食物、变性食物和惰性食物:
你 吃什么就是什么。如果你希望获得一种平和的、冥想式的生活状态、悦性食物是最佳的选择。对于那些希望保持冥想的头脑，还在社会中正常生活和工作的人们，悦 性饮食和适量的变性食物也是很好的。对于那些要实践一些要求很高的练习，比如昆达里尼瑜伽或经营婚姻的人们，悦性食物和一定量变性食物是必要的。所有食物 中，惰性食物是最需要被避免的。
悦性食物
性质：明晰和轻盈
优雅、和平、自律,直观,敏感。
包括大多数水果和蔬菜,向阳生长的食物,和来自土地的食物。

吃的像个瑜伽士，然后散发你的光芒吧！
Kundalini Yogi Master Bhajan encouraged his students to embrace a healthy, yogic lifestyle. The yogic diet he promoted includes whole, simple, fresh, nutritious food. The yogic diet does not include meat, fish, poultry, or eggs. You can get all the proteins, vitamins, and minerals you need without them.
What is a yogic diet?
A yogic diet is a balanced combination of：
Fruits
Nuts
Vegetables
Grains
Legumes
Dairy products (apart from eggs)
Whole, fresh, unprocessed nutritious foods give you energy and strength. When your diet consists of nutritious and sustaining foods and you eat only what you know you can digest, then you are on your way to a healthy, happy, and holy life according to this philosophy.
About Dairy
Dairy products—except eggs—are on the list. This is because when you practice Kundalini Yoga and Breath of Fire, it tends to eliminate mucus. Mucus keeps the breathing passages lubricated and protects the membranes. You may need to replenish the system with a certain amount of mucus, which dairy products can stimulate. If you are allergic to cow products, then try goat products, which are easier to digest.
Sattvic, Rajasic, and Tamasic Foods
You are what you eat. If you are free to live a quiet, contemplative life, a sattvic diet is perfect. For those who wish to maintain a meditative mind but also must live and work in the world, a diet consisting of sattvic and some rajasic foods is best. For those who practice demanding disciplines, like Kundalini Yoga or marital arts, rajasic foods are necessary, along with sattvic foods. For all these lifestyles, tamasic food is best avoided.
Sattvic: Clarity and lightness
Graceful, peaceful, disciplined, intuitive, sensitive.
Most fruit and vegetables, sun foods, and ground foods.
Rajasic: Forcefulness and will-power
Active, positive, demanding.
Stimulating herbs and spices, many earth foods.
Tamasic: Functioning from need and instinct
Impulsive, dull, angry, confused.
Meat, fish, poultry, eggs, alcohol, intoxicating drugs.
Eat like a yogi and spread your light!
