Alanis Morissette Strikes A Pose In “Yoga Journal”
Written by Vegetarian Star on July 29th, 2011 in Female Musicians, Female Singers, Food & Drink, Nutrition-Health-Fitness.
Alanis Morrissette is gracing the cover of the September issue of Yoga Journal.
It’s the journal’s musician edition, and several other veg-friendly artists have interviews in the magazine, including Moby, Ziggy Marley and Adam Levine.
Alanis tells the Journal, “I wanted to find a practice that was both physical and spiritual. Yoga was perfect for that. I felt like I was born to do yoga.”
Alanis got motivated to follow a plant-based lifestyle after picking up a copy of the book Eat to Live by Dr. Joel Fuhrman and says she enjoys filling her plate with greens like collards and kale.
Many yoga lovers see following a meatless diet as a natural extension of yoga and its principles.
Stephen Sturgess, a practicing yogi for over three decades, wrote in The Yoga Book, “A vegetarian diet is essential for one who wants to follow a spiritual life. If you sincerely wish to progress and grow from the ordinary and materialistic life to a higher spiritual consciousness, then it becomes important to live on a vegetarian diet. For there are certain foods that help the mind and body to become more refined, and others that keep it down to the consciousness level of an animal.”
