According to Ayurveda, health is determined by the quality and level of Ojas. Ojas physically relates to vigor (energy), and on a spiritual and emotional level, it refers to the expression of consciousness. Ojas is the most refined and pure by-product of the digestive process. As food is digested and assimilated, nutrients are absorbed and transformed into the seven Dhatus (tissues) that make up our bodies. The by-product of this process is Ojas which builds and protects our immunity. Ayurveda believes that eating warm foods not only benefits our digestions but also balances the Vata dosha by creating stability and groundedness. Below is a yummy breakfast recipe that will achieve both.
