Mumbai, Maharashtra, 16 September 2021 – Renowned Yoga Guru and Director of The Yoga Institute, Dr. Hansaji Yogendra, has launched her book, Sattvik Cooking – Modern Avatars of Vedic Foods. The book, infusing the best of Yoga and Ayurveda, is a relevant offering for people worried about their health in increasingly fast-paced lives with erratic and mindless eating habits. It will also appeal to those who like to eat healthy food that is not only Sattvik, but also delicious.
Dr. Hansaji says, “These days, everyone seems to be running after different things; people don’t find time to be mindful and careful about their eating habits, and so they end up eating whatever is easily available. Also, unfortunately, most people incorrectly assume that a healthy diet will always be bland and unexciting. Through my book, I hope to help change this perception and demonstrate how tasty and enjoyable a Sattvik meal can truly be! The recipes are very easy to make, and are accompanied by calorie and nutrition details.”
Sattvik Cooking – Modern Avatars of Vedic Foods details recipes that will help people derive the benefits of a yogic diet, using humble, easily-sourced kitchen ingredients to prepare delicious and appetizing dishes.
The book has the potential to change the way we eat, converting us from being slaves to our taste buds, to mindful eaters – of delicious food. In fact, foods that were predominantly thought of as a complete no-no have been revamped with a healthy nutritious touch, keeping their flavors intact. All favourite items like burgers, chaat, pancakes, wraps, dumplings, crackers, fritters, tikkis and more, can be made in a totally healthy and nutritious way.
Readers will find many modern-day recipes that will also appeal to millennials, who, today, are far more health-aware and taste-conscious than ever before.
As the pandemic spreads, amidst the social distancing, isolations and restrictions, we feel tempted to just order our meals in from restaurants and hotels. But now, we have a healthier and better alternative, with healthy and appetizing meals from the numerous recipes in Sattvik Cooking guiding us to positivity and a better way of doing things.
