my own. I also notice that the general vibe of 100% vegan restaurants is
normally so much lighter and more peaceful than places that deal with
animal ingredients.
Finding your equilibrium is an important part of being vegan. You’ll
surely develop new rhythms and habits that are very different from your old
lifestyle. I’m generally happy with the patterns I’ve settled into, but I also
like to reassess them now and then, so I can look for ways to keep
improving.
Becoming vegan is one step on a long journey. Don’t look at it as some
kind of final border to cross. There are many more steps to take after that
transition.
Restoring Conscious Choice
I’m sure it’s no secret to you that the foods you see people eating on TV
shows and in movies are heavily influenced by the marketing budgets of the
animal products industry. When you go vegan and stop eating like the
people on TV, you’ll become a lot more aware of those influences and how
extremely limiting they are. You’ll also learn to consciously override those
influences. Consequently, you’ll likely see a major expansion of your
dietary flexibility.
