The Journey To Being Vegan

ON A JOURNEY TO BEING VEGAN

   Have you ever had the thought of going vegetarian, vegan, or pescatarian? Shit, I never thought I would. People often ask me what made me change my eating habits. It was not until after I realized that I didn't want to eat meat anymore during my spiritual awakening. That is the first time my body began rejecting foods, especially meat. I barely had an appetite for a few months after that. I realized how important protecting your body from impure and harsh toxins is, and begin to nourish it with the right foods. After my spiritual awakening I tried eating meat but it wasn't the same experience I used to have when I ate it. It wasn't juicy and delicious it was so disgusting to me. I realized meat was rubbery and disgusting if you don't season it. So what is so great about it? Every time I cooked meat I saw it so differently. The blood and flesh in the pan really made me question what I was doing. I was eating an animal that once lived. That animal had a family, emotions, and most likely lived a traumatic life being tortured and enslaved against their will.
   After questioning eating meat, information about vegan diets began flooding my reality. Dr. Sebi came across my path as well. Dr. Sebi was a healer and herbalist that changed his life and cured himself with a vegan diet. He suffered many health issues from diabetes and being over weight. Dr. Sebi cured thousands of people including celebrities like Michael Jackson, Left Eye Lopes, and John Travolta. He healed people from diseases like cancer, HIV, AIDS, blindness, diabetes, lupus, addiction and more. His philosophy is our body heals itself with the right herbs, minerals, and nutrients. That's right, plants heal all illnesses! Not medications that doctors are trained to prescribe to people. Those medications never heal the source of the problems, they just mask the symptoms, and cause additional health problems in the future. An alkaline "diet" full of electrical foods that come from mother earth (not a hybrid) and nourished by the sun. I don't like using the word diet because this way of eating should be the norm. This way of eating is all our body needs to heal itself and stay disease free. Dis-ease. Meaning our body is not at ease when we fill it with toxic substances like processed foods, sugar, and alcohol. All un-natural (not made by God) foods cause an acidic body and mucus build up. This is what causes all diseases. No disease can exist in an alkaline body.

   I cut beef, pork, chickens---all animals that live on land from my diet. I am a pescatarian now. I eat sea food, but not everyday. I still get my protein, peoples argument for eating meat is to get their serving of protein. Where do you think that animal got it's protein from? The food that it is eating! Duh. I love my veggies, fruits, bread, rice, beans, and pasta. I mostly cut out dairy products. Sometimes I eat cheese. But the longer I go without it and then have a serving again, the more my body rejects it. My stomach be hurting and bloated! I'm working on completely cutting it out. I find it hard to give up cheese because being Mexican, it was a big part of my diet my whole life! It's in tacos, enchiladas, burritos, chalupas, y todo and Mexican food is my favorite food in the world. I drink almond milk instead of cow milk now. I would love to go vegan within the next few years. Especially when I start having babies. My ovaries, my whole body actually, will be 100% alkaline. My husband will be a vegan too so he will be 100% alkaline, and then we are going to have an alkaline baby. Lol. I also make sure to drink natural spring water, or alkaline water with a 7 or higher PH balance. Our bodies are 70% water, so drinking plenty of water throughout the day is so important. Water keeps us hydrated, flushes the toxins out of our bodies, and even cleanses the emotional body to keep your emotions leveled and help with purifying your consciousness.

    By eating clean and drinking plenty of water you keep your gut clean. Your gut is your second brain. If you aren't eating right, you most likely aren't thinking right. Everything is connected; mind, body, and spirit. Food contains information that communicates with your cells. Have you ever heard the saying "you are what you eat?" What you put into your body is what you become. So if you eat a bunch of shit food that is what you will become. A piece of shit. Haha. Eat more electrical, natural plant based foods and you'll be full of light, nutrients, minerals, and pure energy. You'll be full of energy and you will be a much happier person.You'll also notice a lightness within your thoughts as well. Negative thoughts won't be so heavy and persistent as they were before.

ENERGY EXCHANGE

  Everything is made up of energy. What you consume is what you become. When you are consuming flesh and dead bodies, you are not only absorbing the physical meat, you are exchanging energy with that animal and absorb the fear, anxiety, sorrow, and all other emotional trauma that these animals experienced in their lives. I'm sure you've seen or heard of documentaries exposing meat farms. The animals on these farms like cows, pigs, and chickens aren't living on open land where they are free to graze on grass and eat natures food. They are cooped up in tight cages with barely any room to turn around. This creates a breeding ground for bacteria and illnesses. A lot of the animals you consume are sick and have cancer. Yes, animals can get cancer too. This is because they aren't being fed natural food either. And they don't take the time to pick out these sick animals, they are still slaughtered and sold to you, with the cancer still present in the meat.

   Not only are animals held against their will. Cows are impregnated against their will, separated from their babies, and forced to produce milk that is meant to grow a 60 pound calf but is instead sold for humans to drink. Most of cow milk is full of pus and blood. They just use chemicals to make milk extra white for you. As long as it looks good right? They also put chemicals on the meat before packaging to add more red coloring (or just dip it in blood if it looks bad) because most of the meat you buy is already expired or rotten.
   Many humans see themselves as superior to animals when in reality we are superior to no one because God created us all equal. People also underestimate animals intelligence. They are highly intelligent beings that have emotions, feel love and pain too. So after these traumatic, painful, and sad lives the animals live they are killed and sold for humans to consume. A human will cook and eat that animal, and then all of the emotions that animal experienced now becomes apart of  their energy field. A lot of people suffer anxiety and depression. It mainly stems from your diet.
   Our bodies aren't made to consume meat. Our teeth aren't sharp enough to break the meat down, and our intestines are too long to break down the meat properly. Carnivores have sharp teeth and shorter intestines to allow the waste to be disposed quickly. It takes two days for meat to fully digest. This is extremely toxic for your body. The human anatomy does not lie!


   It is so crazy to me to be writing this article and to be sitting in this hospital room with my sister as she recovers from seizures and an infection. I can't help but to shake my head every time a doctor comes in here talking about some medication. You notice how doctors prescribe medication for you to continuously take and refill, but nothing ever gets better, right? The source of the illness is never healed with medications, it only masks the present symptoms. Medications aren't what my sister needs. She needs proper nutrition and healing herbs and I have yet to see one nutritionist come in here to tell her about nourishing herself with vital foods. Doctors get an average of 19 hours of nutrition education in medical school over the course of four years, so I innerstand why their focus is on the meds and not discussing a proper diet plan. Have you seen the menu given to patients at a hospital? It makes no sense to me that they have beef, pizza, pork, dairy, processed foods like gelatin and pudding... all foods that cause disease! Processed meats are classified as carcinogens by the World Health Organization! So why are these even food options on the menu for already sick patients? Because America is one big business!

   The pharmaceutical industry is worth billions of dollars so of course they want to keep you sick to keep you on medications that never heal you, while only masking the symptoms. They told my sister she needs a blood thinning medicine that costs $4,000 a month. ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? They don't care about healing anyone all they want to do is make a profit. Who the hell has $4K for medication per month?! The average persons rent or mortgage doesn't even cost that much! It is so sad to know many families are being told they need these expensive medicines and expensive ass health care when with the proper knowledge they can heal themselves. I brought a bunch of fruit and seeds for my sister to eat because I ain't playing games with this hospital food and meds. My sister used to be on so many medications because she has Lupus. But over the years she stopped taking her medication, which is something I would have never thought would be possible because they told her she needed it to stay healthy and alive. But over the years she got better with her eating habits and recently hopped on the pescatarian train. Aside from her recent set back she has been healthier because of it. I know that when she goes fully vegan she will be healed completely. To know this is all preventable and I refuse to see her or any of my family members laying in a hospital bed ever again.

SPIRITUAL WARFARE

   This is biological and spiritual warfare that has been used against us through food. I am not a vegan but I am on my journey there. I want to share my journey with you all who are on the journey or are already there. Go at your own pace. Some people can do it cold turkey and switch their diet in one day, others take some time. It is not race because you can't rush your process. I'm doing pretty damn good. I don't want another person asking me if I'd eat meat again for a million dollars because I wouldn't dare disrespect myself like that. lol. I'm already a billionaire in my mind.
   The time is here for our generation to stop being ignorant because of the fear of change, and start educating ourselves on the foods we put into our bodies. Your body truly is a temple that is to be respected. Your body is the vehicle for your soul. Your soul is eternal but your body isn't. We need to fuel our bodies with the best foods to have the best experience on this earth plane. As a person of color, it is common to see diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and other kind of health problems present in the family that doctors say are hereditary. The only thing hereditary is that diet and food habits we've adopted over the generations. This lack of knowledge on our diets is dumbing us down because we would rather experience instant gratification with delicious but unhealthy foods. Trust me I used to eat the hell out of some fried chicken and beef tacos. Every time I go home to Texas I reminisce on how great the Patty Melt meal on the Whataburger menu tasted after a blunt with my homegirls. AHH the simple days. But we have to search for the truth ourselves and stop living by what we were taught growing up. We have to fight against all of the GMO's, chemicals, and processed foods they have on every shelf in the grocery store. The produce section isn't even a quarter of all of the fruits and veggies Mother Earth provides for us because She is abundant. There is so much more to explore.
   I am so thankful to know about the importance of healthy eating habits. I hate the word diet, I feel as if we were born to be vegans. Growing up we were eating meat and that's all we knew. We just weren't educated properly. Now that I know the truth, there's no way I could ever go back. I hope to bring awareness to everyone, especially people of color. I hope this can help those who have diseased family members and are open minded enough to help heal through this knowledge. I don't know everything but what I do know is that of the truth. I pray this will spark something in your mind and bring awareness to what you are putting in your temple. Self love starts within; and part of it starts with what information you are feeding your body, mind, and soul. Love, peace, and healing.

Namaste,
