Tapas
Self-discipline or literally, tapas means “heat.” Tapas can mean whatever gives you the motivation to change yourself, the drive, the transformational fire that keeps us on path. Start gently. Say, you notice that when you eat sugar you feel stiffer and your meditation isn’t up to snuff. An option might be to eat sugar every other day and observe yourself. Then begin to choose the good over the pleasant.
