How’s Veganuary going for you?

Is it easy?

Awesome!

🌿 What makes it easy?

🌿 Were you looking forward to trying to eat plant-based for the month?

🌿 Do you already enjoy plant-based foods and you just needed to commit to eating this way regularly?

🌿 What is your reason for being vegan for the month (or all the time if you already eat plant-based)? Is it for your health? Compassion for the animals? The environment? All of the above?

🌿 Is eating this way new to you?

🌿 What are you enjoying?

🌿 Are you cooking? Eating in restaurants or getting takeout? A combination of the two?

We have already posted a bunch of plant-based recipes with tips and suggestions in our Facebook group and have been emailing them out to our newsletter recipients. And each day this month we’ve been sharing a little dose of inspiration.

I know this post asks a lot of questions. Sometimes we aren’t aware of what’s holding us back from what we want until someone brings it to our attention.

For me, my heart wanted to be vegan a long time ago but I had tons of excuses. Vegetarian seemed to be sufficient until I learned about the horrors of the dairy and egg industry as well as the health detriments. I remember feeling unaligned with my values by continuing to consume any animal products.

Once I was eating 100% plant-based, I actually looked forward to the foods I could eat. I don’t miss animal products at all. There are so many good options nowadays both in the supermarket and in restaurants. There are countless excellent recipes and helpful videos to walk us through the process too.

Let us know if we can help you align your lifestyle with your values too! We are here to help.
