Ashley Taylor Anderson

Staying focused on an empty stomach is difficult, even for the most committed yogis. Here are 7 great ways to fuel up before your next practice.

1. Low-fat Yogurt

Yogurt is high in carbs and low in fat—the perfect snack. Sprinkle with some almonds or mix with chia seeds for extra protein.

5. Tea with Milk & Honey

This snack won’t leave you feeling full, but it will provide enough calories to get you through your practice, plus an added pick-me-up from the caffeine.

High in nutrients and good-for-you fats, avocados are a great pre-practice snack. Just grab a spoon and enjoy!

7. Dark Chocolate
