Transitioning to Vegan

Many people want to become Vegan for a variety of reasons:
  • It is healthier to eat Vegan.
  • Links have been made between dairy and Cancer.
  • It has been proven that milk contains puss.
  • Even though you don't actually kill the animal yourself, you are paying someone on the lowest rung of the socio-economic scale, someone who has very few career or job choices, to kill for you.
  • Factory farming has been shown to be so cruel.
  • The separation of Mother Cow and calf  that is part of the milk / dairy industry causes so much pain and suffering to the animals.
  • Some dairy Cows never even see daylight or a field.
When folk are presented with this information they want to 'go Vegan' but still find it difficult. This is where I come in, for I teach the principles of 'giving up' . Giving up 'food when full'. Giving up smoking. Giving up any addiction. And these principles can be successfully applied to giving up dairy. I am 99.9% Vegan myself and 100% Veggie. I personally love the freedom to be able to choose this way of eating and living. I do not crave meat or dairy. In fact the opposite is true - I do not like meat or dairy. I have been vegetarian since I was 17 and to eat meat would probably actually make me vomit because my system is just not used to it. 

We all know that when you say to yourself 'I can't have that!' - You want it all the more. So it is important to have the mind frame of 'I am choosing not to have that.'  I can have that I can eat that until I am blue in the face if I want to, but you know what - I don't actually want to have it, so I won't have it - I don't want it.' You see the difference. One is servitude to an outer mode of eating that you are trying to impose on yourself and the other is the freedom to choose the food you wish to eat and the power to do so consistently and permanently and without any sense of deprivation but with a real sense of freedom and power and ability to follow your own set of ethical values as regards the foods you buy and consume.

So that is one principle that can help you be Vegan and stay Vegan. For more info or a Special offer £25 / $35 One hour Consultation via Skype or Facebook Video Call Email sofia2227@gmail.com

Integration

There is something about having healed a situation or trauma that empowers you.  Maybe you suffered from some abuse for example, a tone of voice or a manner that a parent had that triggers you to this day. If your spouse or a shop assistant or friend even, displays this same behaviour it can be very upsetting for you if you have not healed that original culprit. You may drink or overeat to numb the issue and carry on allowing that person to behave that way, you carry on being around that person never calling out that behaviour that may be rude or abusive to whatever degree. Either way you are  stuck in that situation with that person until you heal the original culprit, the parental behaviour that was your first experience or wounding of that kind.  So through giving up eating when full, drink etc and allowing yourself to be fully aware of how that behaviour makes you feel, if you feel it is abusive or rude or overstepping boundaries and even you may be dismissive of it a...

Awareness of the pattern

To give up any addiction successfully you do not have to abstain from the object of your addiction. In other words the first step in giving up any addiction (contrary to popular belief) is not about abstaining from the food when full, the drink or drugs, gambling etc.  The first step in to be AWARE of your pattern of behaviour.  That means you become aware of when the craving kicks in, and you become aware of your thoughts drifting towards indulging in the object of your addiction. You reach out for the glass of wine. You catch yourself arranging to have that cheesecake even though you are physically full. You reach for the cigarette or vape. This awareness then needs to be extended as it were, you need to be aware of how you are doing emotionally at that specific time the craving kicks in. In this awareness of how you feel emotionally comes the  ability to actually find an alternative means of coping with that emotional dilemma other than just suppressing / numbing it wi...

London

 At the end of another London trip I look back at the memories, sights, experiences and teachings with relish: Form the train to Richmond I see a large fox sitting on the sloping embankment staring towards the trains and I think of the ability to adapt to one's surroundings. The wild fox adapting to city life and thriving, after all, it really takes something to be able to live in London rent free. This tame landscape, moulded and shaped by human hand throughout the centuries. Beautiful iconic statues, fountains and buildings on lay lines of great power. Harrods, Fortnam and Mason etc. The lovely Indian family on the bus to Crouch End. The father answering his daughter's questions with kindness and genuine interest. The mother beaming with love for her child. My heart expanded witnessing such parental love. Again they adapted to being parents and devoting time and energy to their offspring. In contrast I moved train carriages when a father on the tube was trying to control his ...
