What I Ate Today During Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training

2/19/2019

We are now in the midst of our first week of Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training at Urban Yoga Chicago where we have 9 radiant women taking the course. This year we are blessed with a team of teachers who come in daily to prepare the lunch for the group.  It is such a treat to have meals prepared by such generous souls and to have others prepare recipes that I have created.  So far, they are working out nicely!

I'm not doing great with the picture taking, but I want to share what we are eating this week.  For breakfast each morning, we offer crock pot oatmeal, toast, dates, walnuts, almond butter, apples, bananas and clementines. I love having oatmeal with a big spoonful of almond butter, a couple of dates, some banana and maple syrup as well as a piece of toast with coconut oil. We start our day with yoga and meditation at 5:30am so by the time breakfast rolls around, I'm hungry! 
For lunch this week, we had Kitcheri and Potent Potatoes - a very Kundalini Yoga combination, Stir-Fried Vegetables with Miso & Mirin and Baked Tofu and Veggie Chili.  The next 3 days of training will offer Lentil Loaf with Mashed Potatoes, ChickPeas and Fennel with Polenta and a Lentil MustGo Soup (where all of the left over veggies will go).  ​

Dinners this week have varied from a meal out at Chicago Diner to a bit of leftover kitchari. I'm not always hungry after eating a big lunch, but try to eat a little something so my stomach isn't grumbling during sadhana the next morning. ​😳 Overall I'm feeling very excited about how this week is going. The food has been so tasty and being in training again is inspiring and energizing. It's truly an honor to witness and support these new teachers on their journey.

I can attest to how amazing your food is, Jodh Kaur, based on my own KYTT week a couple years ago. Thanks for sharing this post to remind me of all that nourishment and how blessed I am to have been a part of it all-- and continue now from the seva side. Love! Sat Nam!

Thank you Sach Kiret! The nourishment that is included in that course adds a whole new level to the training. I loved seeing the sevadars in the kitchen preparing the meals and then the whole group sitting around the table eating together. It warmed my heart that you could join us too. Much love to you!
