Publisher's Summary

Master entrepreneur, original hip-hop mogul, and three-time New York Times best-selling author Russell Simmons offers an inspiring guide to the benefits of conscious eating and veganism. 

In the New York Times best-seller Success Through Stillness, Russell Simmons shared how meditation can be used as a powerful tool to access potential in all aspects of life, having seen himself how achieving inner peace led to outward success. 

In The Happy Vegan, Simmons shares how once he started practicing yoga and meditation, he became more conscious of his choices, particularly the choices he made regarding his diet. Simmons first adopted a vegetarian and then vegan diet and almost immediately began to experience the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of eating green and clean. He delves into research about mindful eating, the links between stress and poor eating habits, the importance of listening to your body, the well-documented problems associated with eating animal products, and processed foods, along with tips on how to transition to a vegan diet. 

Drawing on his own experience, the experiences of others, and science and research on the health benefits of conscious eating and veganism, The Happy Vegan is an accessible and inspiring guide to help others make the move toward a vegan diet and a more successful, focused, and purposeful life.

Interesting. More aimed at non-vegans though.

I found the chapters on factory farming to be educational and heart wrenching. The abundance of food alternative ideas were great. I think this book is more for people who are thinking about being vegan rather than practising vegans. All in all this was well worth the purchase!

Informative and well structured

An easy listen with facts and information that make sense and is easy to digest. You feel like the author has authority to speak due to his background. Russell has knowledge and experience and provides the listener with honesty throughout. The chapters are broken down into valid points. It does get a little intense with the topic at times but overall it's an insightful and inspiring book that I would highly recommend.
