Tips for Building the Ultimate Chakra Bowl Ritual:
- Stay plant-based and peaceful. No meat, dairy, or fish needed. Nature provides everything your energy centers crave.
- Eat with intention. As you prepare and eat your bowl, focus on the chakra you're nourishing. Visualization = activation.
- Color match like a pro. Let the colors of the chakra guide your ingredient choices. Red for Root, Green for Heart, Purple for Crown – you get the vibe.
- Switch up your bases. Rotate between jasmine rice, quinoa, parboiled rice, or even cauliflower rice if that’s your jam.
- Prep ahead for busy weeks. Batch roast your veggies, cook your grains, and store your dressings in cute mason jars for easy build-and-go bowls all week.
