You will always hear us talking about the 60:40 Balance Bowl here at Hale Pule. But what is it? Well, it is a way of designing your meals that will bring balance to your body, and clarity to your mind. As well as delicious and nourishing food. There are two types of food: augmenting and extracting. Augmenting foods are those that nourish and ground your body and mind. They build tissue and replenish what is lost. Extractive foods are those that are cleansing in nature. They ask your body to give something up in order to digest them and are essential in breaking down healthy fats. Your body needs more augmenting foods than extractive foods to maintain the tissues and balance the doshas. Generally speaking, have 60% augmenting and 40% extractive food on your plate at a meal. Consuming meals in this 60:40 proportion will help maintain a calm, balanced state of body and mind and support agni. 🙏 Once you know this simple framework, you can get creative in the kitchen. We have seen 60:40 Burritos, Sushi, Pizzas, Soups... let your creative juices flow and the delicious, nourishing foods will follow.
