Spiritual Benefits of a Vegetarian Diet

You are what you eat! Bondage and liberation are states of mind. The mind, as a mass of vibrating energy, is limited by the constitution or condition of that energy. If the energy is heavy or inert, little can be done with it to produce the state of…Continue

Comment by Water Being on October 5, 2012 at 5:40am: Divinity, I've heard from some non-Canadian folks of that site. Glad you found it. Right now I use Curelle's Shampoo and Conditioners because I find that if I use overly cleansing ones, my hair gets more oily. I use a salt crystal for my underarms and also coconut oil right after I shower or shave. I don't wear much makeup - usually mascara and sometimes blush or a bit of cover up and I buy it from http://theallnaturalface.com/. I use Green Beaver Peppermint or Jason Naturals Sea Fresh toothpaste and some products from Weleda when I can afford them. I like Weleda too because they use fermentation to formulate nearly all of their products and their moisturizers can't be beat. I occasionally use Andalou Organics Komboucha face wash. I find less and more when it comes to my skin. I like http://www.ewg.org/ for their reports on various ingredients and products too. I'd also love to hear what other people use and enjoy on their day-to-day.

Comment by Water Being on October 5, 2012 at 5:29am: Mr. Ed, Thank you for sharing such a nice vibration. It's wonderful to hear of your awareness and experience.

Comment by D1V1NITY on October 4, 2012 at 11:35pm: Hey All!!

Was sort of reluctant to post this on the vegatarian/vegan group, BUT it totally coincides with a natural lifestyle.

I've recently found iherb.com~it's a very fair priced site from what I can tell, and has a little bit of this and that all natural!

What are some of your favorite natural products that you've used? As in natural shampoos, conditioners, lotions, deodarants, toothpastes, etc?

Am dedicating myself to changing most products over to all natural to coincide with my healthy eating lifestyle, and am curious to hear some nice recommends from some 'natural' masters out there ;)

Comment by Mr.Ed on October 2, 2012 at 4:36am: congrats isis your off to a good start.
Much love back to you 1 darkstar...BTW...your not dark at all.
Maybe you should change your name to brightstar. :)

I don't claim to belong to any group and I don't have some silly name that I qualify under.
I just do not eat meat...of any kind. It is very simple.

I have great admiration and respect for all forms of life.
I don't kill...hunt...fish or anything to harm nature.

I capture insects in my house and release them unharmed outside.
I don't have children but children and animals are attracted to me and always have been. I think because I treat them as equals with respect.

Eating meat was a hard thing to change from as we have been engrained from birth to eat meat.
I always built a meal around a piece of some kind of meat...it just IS that way.

But my body started to reject it and with the increasing energies we are experiencing...the requirement for 3 meals a day has diminished to only one.
Any meat gave me serious heartburn...so it was a pleasant change once off the meat.
Besides...for the past decade or so...the meat just got worse looking and smelling and did not cook up like it used to long ago before all the GMO's...steroids...anti-biotics...vaccines...hormones and more that they put into the food chain via meat.
This is why people suddenly feel lighter...healthier after they quit meats.

All the rest of it matters not to me...i just walk my path. :)

Comment by Kevin on October 1, 2012 at 10:09pm: Thanks water being :)

Seems I'm already doing most of that, and the extra info should make sure I'm covered. Can't know everything. Wouldn't want to. Would ruin the fun.

Comment by 1 darkstar on October 1, 2012 at 7:42pm: Mr.Ed.: You are still Super-Cool.

Comment by Isis on October 1, 2012 at 1:42pm: It's now today 1 month I am vegetarian and I am loving it! I feel much better and healthier. My soul is happy and I just wanted to share with everyone this happiness. :)

Thanks all for your tips and insights!

Much love

Isis

Comment by Water Being on October 1, 2012 at 4:48am: Divinity: Sounds good. Enzymatic is a good brand. I also like Wild Rose, Botanica and St.Francis Herb Farm for their cleansing tinctures and formulas.
