Russell Simmons

Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons committed to a vegan lifestyle over 15 years ago. Over his years of practice, Simmons has visibly dropped weight. Simmons attributes his change of diet to, not just what he eats, but it 's eaten. Healthy food choices should be made in conjunction with eating mindfully. This "mindfulness" involves eating slowly and savoring food to give the body the opportunity to digest in an appropriate amount of time.

Simmons has also become an advocate for meditation. He believes that stillness and quiet help the body focus better and make him happier. Compassion is another virtue that Simmons promotes. Simmons ' advice on meditation is available in his book, "Success Through Stillness: Meditation Made Simple."

    When it comes to Global warming, being a vegetarian should be turned to as a first resort rather than going more toward the Prius, a car that has been made to cut vehicle emissions in half in an attempt to fight against global warming. Kathy Freston’s article “Vegetarian is the new Prius” caught my eye immediately when choosing an essay for the very fact that, I want Toyota Prius, and also because I’ve tried going vegetarian. Although I see nothing wrong with being a vegetarian, the lifestyle just didn’t work for me. I do to a certain extent agree with her argument because ever since I took ecology in high school, the environment has been very important to me, and I do what I can to help preserve it. Freston wrote that President Herbert Hoover promised a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage”.…
