Nutrition Tips

  • Vatas:

    Experiment with alternative flours like wheat or quinoa, and swap sunflower seeds for chopped almonds. Incorporating a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon of ground ginger can further enhance the flavor profile.

  • Pittas:

    Customize by substituting sesame seeds with sunflower or pumpkin seeds, and halving the maple syrup. Opt for hemp or plant protein as a whey protein alternative.

  • Kaphas:

    Double the maple syrup and utilize fruit juice concentrate instead of brown rice syrup. Adding 1 teaspoon of ground ginger can elevate the taste experience.

Mindfulness Tip:

When thoughts of future worries arise, ground yourself in the present moment. Recognize that fretting over hypothetical situations impedes your happiness. Take proactive steps to address concerns, such as reaching out to a friend or scheduling a doctor's appointment. Embrace the joy of the present to cultivate inner peace.
