Food: Sattvic & Healthy

What we eat, not only influences our physical well-being, but also our emotions and thoughts. Yoga does not dissect food into proteins, carbohydrates or fats, instead, it classifies them according to the effect they have on the body and mind, into three types – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas

Sattvic food is the kind that makes you feel energetic & enthusiastic.
Rajasic food is that which brings about activity or restlessness.
Tamasic food is the kind of food that makes us lethargic or sluggish.

Accommodation: Clean & Comfy

Accommodations at Aatm Yogashala is a spanking amalgamation of both Indian traditions and modern amenities to make the students feel the essence of home away from their home and an adequate workplace for learning yoga.
