"The Voluptuous Vegan"

[Guest guest]

Check out this new recipe book co-written by

Ashtangi George Minot and one of the ex-cooks from

Angelica's Kitchen (who's name I cant remember)<br><br>If

you live in a toxic environment you have even more

reason to take good care of yourself. NYC is not as

polluted as many cities (Mysore Included) and the Ashtanga

Community is very strong here - which is a very positive

environmental factor.<br><br>There is not alot of point trying

to be extremely healthy if it makes you miserable

and isolated. A major part of health comes from food,

another major part comes from happiness and positive

attitude.<br><br>Focusing on good diet (vegetarian) is particularly

important when going through Yoga Chikitsa (primary series)

- your body will start to detoxify, so you dont

need to give it an extra burden (bad food) to deal

with. Once you are established in a good diet, its

unlikely to go away.
