I can only teach what I have experienced and believe in. Making the choice to go completely vegan was fairly easy. It started right after our Costa Rican retreat. The food at the retreat inlcuded yummy vegetarian choices, so I felt like the time was perfect to transition to completely vegan once home. I am convinced now, that vegetarianism has heightened my yoga practice. I believe this karmic action has put me in a place of greater peace and awareness and brought that peace and awareness to a heightened level in my physical practice. My joints feel less restricted. Somehow I feel cleaner, lighter. If you would like tips or help on how to make a transition to a more peaceful way of nourishing your body, I can help. It really isn't as difficult as you may think.
