Best snacks for after your yoga practice You walk out after a yoga class feeling that “after bliss.” Here’s how to retain that feeling and be ready for your next practice • Hydrate with fresh water. • Drink juice or a smoothie made of kale, bok choy, parsley, celery mixed with some apple juice, red grapes and frozen mangos or pineapple. Yum! Check out ”Good Morning Greens Smoothie” at Body Ecology, or many other raw smoothies at The Renegade Health Show. • Add Spirulina or Hemp powder to your smoothie for extra health and protein. • Snack on mung beans or sunflower or broccoli sprouts, which are loaded with energy. • Go nuts. Think raw and organic, like almonds and walnuts. Add seeds like sunflower and pumpkin. Soak them over night in water and enjoy. • A piece of fruit such as an apple or a banana (or both) can help give back nutrients to the body. Watermelon is wonderful in season, pineapple, an orange or any other juicy fruit. • Eat a few power foods like blueberries, Goji berries, raw cacao, maca or very dark chocolate. Endangered Species and Green & Black are two of my favorites chocolate brands. You want to replenish your body with liquid and nutrients while keeping light and vibrant. See how your body feels 30 minutes after your snack. You are the best judge of what makes you feel good.
