motivation and intent to increase plant based eating
What will ignite the passion within you to exchange lifestyle elements to bring you closer to a life that truly nourishes you?
Did you know you can become your own advocate and support yourself to bring your being into alignment with your goals and assist you in developing your mind, body, soul connection. You get to make the choice. You also have the choice to be motivated to make change. It starts with you.
Let's take a look at some of the factors that may motivate change. It is thought by many progressive doctors and researchers, including Dr Neale Bernard, that by eating plants you are consuming micro-nutrients that nourish your body at a cellular level. Given that the human body is made up of over 30 trillion cells, it makes sense to nourish our cells in the best way possible.
In addition to generating health within our body, the intention to looking after our environment drives the behaviour of many people who eat less meat and or consume less dairy. Plant based living supports a more sustainable environment.
“A vegan diet is probably the single biggest way to reduce your impact on planet Earth, not just greenhouse gases, but global acidification, eutrophication, land use and water use,” said Joseph Poore, at the University of Oxford, UK, who led the research. “It is far bigger than cutting down on your flights or buying an electric car,” he said, as these only cut greenhouse gas emissions.
“Agriculture is a sector that spans all the multitude of environmental problems,” he said. “Really it is animal products that are responsible for so much of this. Avoiding consumption of animal products delivers far better environmental benefits than trying to purchase sustainable meat and dairy.”
“If we had a mostly plant-based diet we could increase the yield of the land. We have an urgent need for free land... Nature is our biggest ally.”
