Plant Living Made Easy
Originally Recorded on 2 April, 2024
This discussion was the fourth in a series which endeavored to encourage, inform and support those who are plant curious, plant centric or those who are currently living a plant-based lifestyle. There is always more to learn when we all come together as a community to share struggles, solutions, tips, hacks and above all, ideas and knowledge. We do this in a respectful and loving community with our various Community Clubs and Programs at 6D Living.
Our discussion focused on our cravings – you know the ‘little’ goodies we feel we ‘need’ at certain times. What drives these cravings – is it body or mind – or is it both? In our previous episode, Weight Loss Tips, we discussed The Pleasure Trap and about how we are wired for pleasure seeking activities. We crave pleasure – that is why it can be difficult to remove drugs like sugar, salt and oil from our nutritional choices. Never fear – there are solutions and we will discuss those during the show!
We will also discuss how we have addressed our own cravings in our journeys, how we avoid triggers and what we do when cravings actually occur. This is both a physical and mental battle and we will discuss together what that means for our ability to successfully remove ‘cravings’ from our lives.
