It's #selfcaresunday lovely people! Quick self care tip #1 - take a moment to be mindfully present with a pet or wild creature. Nourish yourself through the anti oppressive stance of veganism. Consider - what can your connection with them give back to you?

Having compassion for those who troll vegans is actually a powerful tool. It allows us to keep perspective, a cool clear head and not burn out. Remember though, compassion can still be boundaried and assertive.

Society uses animals for clothes, food, testing of new products and medicine and entertainment. If you've chosen to opt out of that by being vegan you are in the minority. Those feelings of social rejection and ostracisation are inevitable.

Be prepared for everyday experiences to become horrific when you then #vegan. Seeing fish displayed whole at the supermarket, witnessing others eat meat off the bone are common examples. Plan ahead for these, hunker down, and protect yourself.

Many people turn vegan for health reasons. However, nutritional science is complex and multifaceted. It's easy to attribute subjective changes on veganism. But the worlds' leading health agencies affirm veganism as a healthy lifestyle. Choose veganism for ethical reasons. DM us to find out how.

Veganism is a rights movement. Environmental benefits and health benefits of veganism come second to this. Lead with your morals. Follow with the facts and figures.

How society treats animals is riddled with moral hypocrisy, logical fallacies and irrational behaviour. All of this is ripe for exploitation to our advantage. This should give us hope.

If you were raised non vegan, think about how your parents responded when you first made the connection between meat and animals as a child. Fear and confusion begets fear and confusion. It takes courage to buck the trend. Think of what we're asking people to change.

Speciesism and carnism makes people defensive, irrational and unpredictable. Come at non vegans with a sense of assertive compassion. Most of us were there once too. Few of us choose to uphold delusions without first being manipulated.

Free range, red tractor assured, RSPCA assured, organic or cage free are all marketing buzz words. The imaginary happy, healthy animals used to produce the products with these labels do not exist. Don't fall for marketing. There is no ethical way to kill or exploit an animal. #GoVegan #Farming

The way the world tortures and kills fishes, chickens, ducks, mice, rats, geese, pigs, cows and sheep yet dotes on cats and dogs is completely delusional and irrational. This gives us the high ground in morality and logic. You've already got a head start. Use this to your advantage.

We tried some reverse psychology with this activist from Uganda. He actually holds Africans to account for their harm to animals like Westerners do!! 😡
How sick is that?! All these pro-Indigenous accounts have been telling us for weeks they can't give animals respect. Who to believe...? 🤔

Next time a non vegan tries to say that animal farming is sustainable, point to the following:
1) Land use 🗺️
2) Animal feed (palm oil, air miles) 🌽
3) Desertification 🌵
4) Methane emmisions 💨
5) Monoculture 🌾

By virtue of animals being "sentient" (feeling & conscious) - they have the right not to be violently assaulted by those who CAN be #vegan. It's not a necessity for humans to enslave, harm, and kill #animals.

When you go vegan, throw out or donate all animals products from your life, incrementally if you can't afford to replace right away. Every time you use animal products in any form, you condition yourself and others that it is socially acceptable to do so.

For this #SelfCareSunday we're focusing on the benefits of hiking. We went on a beautiful walk at a nearby nature reserve yesterday as our first hike of the year. The psychological and physical benefits of walking out in nature are well documented 🥾🌿

The first step all new vegans should take is to plan. Plan where your trigger points are gonna be to fold back to eating animal products. Identify the problem people in your life. Plan what products you need to replace. Plan how you're going to SUSTAIN veganism in your life.
