“Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind, and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the soul open.”

— B.K.S. Iyengar

whole grains and carbs do a body good

————————

A grain a day will keep the doctor away. Wait, that’s not right, but it should be. We need whole grains in our lives! Grains can be stored for thousands of years, transported across many seas, and feed billions of people. They are close to the perfect food and have been eaten by traditional cultures for ages. Grains supply the complex carbohydrates that our bodies need for brain function, blood-sugar regulation, and metabolism stabilization, and they help keep our digestive tracts running smoothly, all while keeping us centered—allowing us to connect to our bliss.
