"I get so hungry after class! What should I eat [after yoga]? Well obviously whatever it is, it should be good for you. But! The very good news is that after a class, healthy is probably all you’re going to want anyway! And so it goes: the more often you practice, the more likely you are to make consistently better food choices. That ACTUALLY happens. Just like, naturally when you’re not even realizing it – I swear. I’m no food expert (uh, or yoga expert), but just because you’re hungry, it doesn’t mean you should shove a whole bunch of food in your face. Yoga makes us feel light and floaty for a reason, and our food should too. Think smoothies or salads, whole foods and fresh organic foods."
