Mindfulness-Based Vegan Living: A Secular Guide to the Ethics of Care
Most of us consider ourselves compassionate people. We love animals, yet we live in a world that normalizes their suffering. This disconnect creates a quiet but persistent tension in our lives-an Integrity Gap between our values and our daily actions.
Mindfulness-Based Vegan Living (MBVL) is not a diet book, nor is it a manifesto for moral outrage. It is a guide for navigating the psychological and emotional realities of being vegan in a non-vegan world.
Drawing on secular dharma and the Ethics of Care, this book offers a practical framework for anyone looking to align their life with their values without sacrificing their internal wellbeing. It moves beyond the Angry Vegan stereotype, proposing instead the path of the Ethical Artist-someone who builds a life of non-harming through patience, resilience, and skill.
Inside, you will find:
The Four Tasks: A structured approach to processing the grief of animal suffering (Vystopia) and turning it into sustainable action.
The Gardener Mindset: A shift away from fighting the system toward cultivating change in yourself and others.
Grounded Practices: Somatic tools and breathing techniques to manage reactivity and stay centered in difficult moments.
The Art of Connection: Practical advice for navigating social situations and difficult conversations without judgment or conflict.
Sustainable Advocacy: How to maintain Active Hope and avoid burnout over the long term.
This is a book for the quiet advocate. It is for those who want to stand firm in their ethics while remaining soft in their hearts, building a bridge to a kinder world one mindful step at a time.
