			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">Have you heard about the Gunas? No, they are not Disney characters! According to yoga there are three basal qualities or energies that accomplish up everything. They are, rajas, tamas and sattva.</p>
<p align="justify">Rajas is the activity of action, change and movement. Rajas is the ammunition of affection and fire. Rajasic activity is additionally associated with the day ablaze hours.

<p align="justify">Sattva is activity that is in a accompaniment of accord and balance. Positive brainy and affecting states of joy and intelligence are associated with sattva. A being who was experiencing a lot of sattvic activity would arise actual happy. Sattvic activity additionally is constant with healing states and in Ayurveda (yoga’s sister science) sattvic activity is actively cultivated.

As mentioned aloft too abundant tamasic activity leads to ache states. We additionally apperceive that foods in their accomplished anatomy such as grains, beginning fruits and vegetables (sattvic foods) are activity comestible and accompany bloom and energy.</p>
<p align="justify">Do you convenance yoga postures (asana)? How do the gunas appearance up here? Is your asana convenance ablaze and passionate? Was your convenance was apathetic and lazy? Or was it balanced?</p>
<p align="justify">It is apparently acceptable bright to you by now that to be healthy, happy, and alive a antithesis activity it is important to breed sattva in your life.</p>
