About this listen

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


In the New York Times bestseller 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.

Hard hitting but well worth it cause illnesses caused by consuming meat from very badly treated and very badly killed animals is good to know in order to make a choice. Many don't realize just how unsustainable meat production is how very polluting and destructive to the environment. All this is explained bluntly and candidly in this book.

Great listening

a really great reading and a great place to start imho. the information provides you with little room to justify the continued consumption of animal products.

it's convinced me!

Would you consider the audio edition of The Happy Vegan to be better than the print version?

I have not read the print version however I found the book and in particular the speaker very inspiring. I have just started my vegan journey and I needed some encouragement and proof of it's benefits, and I got that in great quantity. Excellent writing and at a pace that kept you interested all the time.

The three stages of truth are:
Ridicule
Anger
Acceptance

This book is just a perfect antidote for the ridicule and certainly the anger that this subject, quite rightly, raises in people. Russell Simmons outlook helps bring about acceptance so that those embarking on a vegan lifestyle can get on with it and be the change that we all wish to see in the world rather than getting stuck in our own way. Thank you for your unique insight. Namasté
