Summary
Victoria Moran is an inspirational speaker, a certified life coach, and the author of ten books, including Lit from Within; Fat, Broke & Lonely No More; and the international bestseller Creating a Charmed Life. Her articles have appeared in numerous publications, including Body + Soul, Natural Health, and Yoga Journal. Her blog, “Your Charmed Life,” is published daily on Beliefnet. She lives a charmed life in New York City. she details her own journey to being vegan, and the good karma this lifestyle brings for oneself, the other beings with whom we share our planetary home, and for the planet itself. Details include not only the "what and why," (for the animals, health, planet), also the "how," whether one can commit all in from the start, eases into it, or takes the roll over, crawl, walk approach. From the food one eats, to the fashions one wears to making Eco-friendly choices in our day to day, there`s a bit of all in this book.Also included are testimonials from others who have embarked upon the Good Karma lifestyle of being ethical vegans, whether they began for health (fighting chronic diseases, loosing weight, building energy, regaining/maintaining youthfulness), respect for animals, or for the environment. And yes, there are delicious recipes, from the talented Doris Fin, CHHC, AADP. Her all plant based, high raw recipes source easy to find and use ingredients. There is an emphasis on the benefits of raw foods, without the all raw philosophy. From juices to smoothies, appetizers to sides to mains, there`s something for all levels of cooking and tastes.I get that Victoria titled it a "diet" to appeal to all aspects of one`s lifestyle, however, some will pick it up and put it down because they are expecting just a diet book of recipes, while others might miss out all together, thinking it is just about another fad, instead of a guide to the good karma that come with living a cruelty free lifestyle
