About this episode

In this episode, we delve into the profound aspects of yoga philosophy, exploring the interplay between Prakriti, Purusha, and the three gunas: Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. Discover how these fundamental energies shape our perceptions and actions, influencing our journey towards enlightenment, as we dissect their roles in the pursuit of inner peace and self-awareness. Plus, gain personal insights into the transformative power of yoga practices on one's relationship with food and lifestyle choices, and join me on Instagram and Facebook for further exploration into Sattvic, Rajasic, and Tamasic foods.
