Amino Acid Suppl. before Sadhana?

Does anyone has any experience about taking amino

acids suppl. before sadhana?

 

I´m 90% vegetarian, and I've been doing some aerobic

exercise for 15 to 20 mins. as a warmup before daily

sadhana; and a friend was suggesting me to take some

amino acid suppl. to get strength and endurance.

 

Any comments?

 

Sat Nam,

Sat Nam Roberto:

 

I agree with you ,but they live in their natural

environment, so far away from what humans do, full of

stress, poluted cities, deficient feeding, etc.

 

Any way, I see the intake of supplements as a little

push to get back on the way sooner; I've felt already

that as soon as I keep on the practice of KY, I'll

access my own resources, and won't need an extra aid

as I´m doing now.

 

Have a great day :-)

 

Carlos

Dear Carlos,

 

I consider the supplements I take food that I need for my body. In an ideal

world we would get most of our nutrition from our food but this is not the

case. Just do what you need to do to take care of yourself and nurture your

body. KY is fabulous but it does not supply nutrients to the body, it uses

them.

 

Sat Nam,

Dear Gururattan:

 

The question about amino acids, it's to know if there

are any side effects on using them.

I get tired very soon during sadhana , I don´t know if

it is because I'm not in a good shape, or because of

the energy work that KY is doing in my body.

But I've felt that I need an extra aid on supplements

besides the food.

To taste myself without suppls. I've quited them for a

couple of weeks, and I feel better taking them.

I'm 48 ys. old, and it's not the same to start when

you're 25 or 30.

 

I'm working on the navel point with breath of fire,

stretch pose, and sat kriya basiclly, and it's been

quite a challenge for me, because after reading lesson

# 7 kundalini yogakyt07.html

the lights turned on, about where I should work.

The thing about getting tired very soon, I feel my

body it's telling that I'm working on the right way.

The main thing about this, is that I'm becoming to

feel younger and in a better mood than I used to, and

this is a very precious gift.

 

Many Blessings to you and the whole group,

 

Carlos

Sat Nam!

 

I just thought I would mention that most food these days is nutritionally

deficient. Organic is definitely the way to go if you are looking for good

nutrition from food. I also find a multivitamin to be helpful, especially

since I'm still nursing my daughter. We use Braggs liquid aminos instead of

soy sauce and sometimes instead of salt. It tastes very good, and I just

think of it as a healthy food instead of a supplement because of the way we

use it. But, I don't believe in some quick fix supplement that solves all

of one's nutrition problems. It is really the way you live your life,

including eating, spiritual practices, how to take care of yourself all

around, really that keeps you nourished.

 

Love Always,

Organic is great isn't it? my family switched about a little less than one year

and we appreciate the foods we eat now. they are so vibrant beeming with

substance.
