Veganuary is Coming and I wanted to let you know we will be celebrating and giving away a few prizes at the end of the month.*
I never thought much about Veganuary since I already eat plant-based year-round. Upon further reflection, however, it’s a great way to introduce plant-based eating.
What is Veganuary? Veganuary is an organization that encourages people to try vegan for January and beyond. Learn more here. Their website has a ton of information and recipes galore.
For more tasty recipes, lots of support and a fun month, hang out with us at What’s Plant-Based Cooking Good Looking?!
If the idea of eating plant-based for a whole month is foreign to you, here’s a reframe:
Don’t think of it as what you are giving up. Rather, think of it as what you are gaining:
🌿 A whole new repertoire of foods to try,
🌿 Recipes to cook if you are interested in cooking,
🌿 An exploration into how living a healthy plant-based lifestyle can do wonders for your health,
🌿 Feeling empowered that you are contributing to healing, not harming, the earth by the foods you consume.
🌿 And of course, the ability to sleep at night knowing you didn’t harm an animal for your food.
There’s more, but that’s a good place to start.
Plus, it’s only one month and if at the end you decide it’s not for you, then you can go back to eating whatever animal products you were eating before.
BUT, you might also decide that it’s not as hard as you thought. Or, you might see some improvements in your health and want to stick with team plant-based. Or you might learn about the atrocities of the animal food industry and decide you no longer wish to participate. Or, or, or…
Yes, there is a lot of wacky information out there about what is healthy. And yes, there is a lot of misinformation about the animal agriculture industry (such as how we are lead to believe that it’s humane).
Yet, what I hear over and over from people who are now 100% plant-based or vegan is that their biggest regret is that they didn’t do it sooner. I’m one of those people.
Join us here for the month. We’ll be posting something every day on social and that same post will go out to our newsletter recipients.
Plus- we are offering prizes for anyone who wishes to eat plant-based for the month. All you have to do is take photos of your plant-based meal and email to me. *We will be posting the rules for the raffle at the end of the month. Details below.
