One of the biggest complaints I hear about vegan meals is that they just aren’t enough and always leave you craving for more. This pink smoothie bowl together with a mushroom toast from a previous post were my only 2 meals for the day, no snacks. I wasn’t hungry at all, even the mango tray remained untouched 😝Here are some tips how to feel satisfied when eating #vegan: - If I balance savory and sweet throughout the day chances of sudden desire to eat a whole bag of chips or a chocolate bar are very minimal. - Adding seeds & nuts to smoothies and salads, my favorite are pumpkin, sesame, flax, chia and activated almonds. Same goes for spices - eating something full of flavor feels much better and helps to cut down on salt. I love cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, fenugreek and mustard seeds. - I’m not a huge fan of oils*, but a good dressing always helps to make a salad more interesting. I prefer lemon juice, tahini, hummus and vinegar. - Take your time, eat slow, chew well and enjoy every bite 💚 *In Australia many products have a health star rating on the packaging. I was really surprised to see that organic extra virgin olive oil has only 3 stars out of 5, which would be similar to e.g. corn chips and 😳 Any thoughts, why it’s so low?

When you are living in the most #vegan area in Australia, your #breakfast looks like this 😋🥬

It cost nothing to be kind to an animal #lovethemdonteatthem 🐋🐖🐑🐄🐓🦃

One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. ‘Which road do I take?’ she asked. ‘Where do you want to go?’ was his response. ‘I don’t know,’ Alice answered. ‘Then,’ said the cat, ‘it doesn’t matter.

There is no perfect world where everyone is equal, but we can change our perceptions, we can look at the soul no matter what we see outside.. “Animal rights, gay rights, human rights — it is all the same battle, fought on different fronts. We are all living beings. We possess a desire to live, love whom we choose, and deserve to live free of brutality and oppression.” — Dr. Holly Wilson #worldveganday #crueltyfree #vegan #bekindtoanimals #govegan #friendsnotfood #bethechange #animalrights

Happy world vegan day! There are so many reasons not to eat animals, you probably know all about it by now. For me it all comes to the commitment of leaving a compassionate lifestyle. I truly believe the world will be a better place if we are kind to all living beings 💙 Every small change matters - reducing the amount of meat you consume, replacing cow milk with the plant alternative, say no to the natural fur, make sure your cosmetic products are not tested on animals.. Every little step in the right direction is a progress 🙏 #worldveganday #crueltyfree #vegan #bekindtoanimals #govegan #friendsnotfood

It is not perfection we must seek, but freedom of the heart 🍃

The best breakfast is when it is fresh & juicy and eaten outside 🍐 I know it may look like a weird #breakfast for some of you :) #Fruits are definitely my favorite food. I try to eat different ones everyday to keep it balanced. I like them in all the forms, and a huge fun of homemade smoothies, but while I’m waiting for the kitchen renovation, I’m happy to eat them in a big chunks 🍉

These little things which make us better 🌸 What if we try to impress each other with kindness, altruism and tolerance instead of just with how we look and what we wear?

Just watched @truecostmovie documentary. I’ve been questioning the idea of modern fashion industry for a while, so I can’t say the movie was eye-opening, I would say it was heartbreaking. The same way as we tend to draw the the curtain over the cruelty of the meat industry and its environmental impact, we often prefer not to think where our clothes come from. Our economy is based on materialism and there is no quick fix for this current situation with global corporations focusing purely on profit and taking advantage of the workers in the developing countries. But we can be more conscious and aware when we choose where to put our money in. Over-consuming and buying low-cost fast fashion makes us think we are reach, but in fact it makes us poorer. We are missing out on things which are way more important than a new pair of jeans. It is of course important to find the balance between expressing yourself through fashion and enjoying your favorite outfits and realizing that it’s not the condition or the recipe for your happiness or comfort. It is sad to whiteness that with all the amazing things humanity was able to achieve in the 21st century, we are still taking this path of exploitation and violation of human rights for the sake of the profit. . . 🖼 @danaellyn . #sustainableliving #valuerevolution #fastfashion #conciousfashion #consiousliving #humanrights #womensrights #whomademyclothes
