The Concept of Food in Ayurveda

WHAT IS AHARA? Ahara is one of the important pillars of Ayurveda. It means that it is one of the basic principles upon which health, happiness and harmony rests. It is concerned with diet and lifestyle and is essentially preventive in nature. It is not only the food that we consume, but also what each of the 5 senses (eyes-sight, nose-smell, ears-hearing, tongue-taste, skin-touch) absorb from all that they come into contact with. Our life revolves around food. We begin each day and end each day with some intake of food! Some of us live to eat and yet some eat to live! The first cry of a newborn is for nourishment from his/her mothers milk and touch. From the first moment of our lives, food is one of the most important ingredient for a healthy body and mind. In todays time, restaurants are totally packed. Take out food centers are overflowing with orders. Grocery stores have long lines. When we see a beggar on the streets, he is begging for money so as to feed himself & his family. Food is his primary thought. In our fast paced life today, fast foods are on the rise. We eat quickly, foods that are prepared with shortcuts and we find relief in filling the stomach and senses rather than nourishing and energizing the body. Protein shakes are taken as ‘fillers’ and nutrition. There is a complete lack of attention to the process of eating. There are several gadgets in the kitchen today for cooking aid but eating out or taking food out is the latest fad of this century. New and o...

What is Mitahara?

Mitahara means “the habit of moderate food” and is considered one of the yamas by certain Hindu philosophical schools. From Sanskrit, mita means “moderate” and ahara means “diet” or “food consumption.” Mitahara is a yogic virtue that centers on awareness while consuming food and drink, and the effects that nutrition and over-consumption have on the mind and body. Many yogis that practice a sattvic diet also implement the principle of mitahara by mindfully eating in moderation. As a yama, mitahara is one of the central virtues to yogic philosophy; yamas are the duties or observances recommended by yogic philosophy and teaching as part of the path of yoga. These yamas are practices that are considered to be outer observances. They are a way of applying the behavioral codes of yoga to the way the yogi relates to the world. They are considered to be a valuable and highly relevant guide to help yogis live an ethical life. In practice of mitahara, yogis strive to keep the stomach one-fourth empty of food at mealtime. It is believed that this allows sufficient room for healthy digestion. Those with a spiritual practice may wish to offer food to the Divine before consumption as an additional custom of mitahara. During These Times of Stress and Uncertainty Your Doshas May Be Unbalanced. To help you bring attention to your doshas and to identify what your predominant dosha is, we created the following quiz. Try not to stress over every question, but simply answer based off your intu...

Julie Wainwright is back with a new, venture

Julie Wainwright, founder and former CEO of the publicly traded, luxury online consignment company The RealReal, is back with a new startup. Called According to Ahara, for example, its tests can tell the company how effectively someone is metabolizing specific nutrients; how healthy his or her cells are; and which tests an individual’s blood levels for key nutrients like vitamin D and Omega 3s. Wainwright isn’t a wellness expert, but after leaving The RealReal last June after running the company for 11 years, she teamed up with Ahara is currently in beta and, according to its own literature, will operate a freemium model that provides special benefits to “premium” members. That the operation appears to require far fewer resources than The RealReal isn’t surprising. Wainwright — who earlier led the dot.com-era company Pets.com — is coming off of a business that’s beloved by its customers but highly challenging from a margins perspective. In Though The RealReal was a “really good idea,” creating a far more vibrant second-hand luxury goods market, the “challenge with the model is that it is very capital intensive. The storage of the garments is expensive. The way that they procure in such a white-glove manner is expensive.” Wainwright “executed really well on the vision, but driving a profitable machine and taking the cost out of it is just very hard to deal with in that business because it’s all basically one-off unique pieces of fashion product, and they all have to be grad...
