I have worked with macro counsellers, all open to an animal-free diet. Your advice about miso is so true. You need it, along with whole grains, strong root veggies, beans, tempeh, and other more yang foods to balance the yin veggies and fruits. I got your latest mp3 file, your book, recently. I am really enjoying it each night; so hillarious and fun. Looking forward to seeing you on the cruise in April. I may do another hypno-session. Keep up the great work; you are fabulous! Peace.

I have been vegan quite awhile. Jessica hypmotized me on the Macro Cruise; she is great. The cruise combined macro and vegan philosophies I think that there is no better combination.MAy all beings be happy and free from suffering.

I'm 37 and a colorectal cancer survivor. With the help of my ex, I went veggie first, then mostly vegan with a respect and balance of macrobiotic. I really appreciate the philosophy behind both diets, though I do eat fish and occasional raw dairy. One of my biggest challenges is that I have had part of my colon taken out, then lived with an ilestomy for a year before they reconnected the colon 9 months ago. Suffice to say I am still in recovery and it's always a mystery and test to see what my body will digest, what will irritate it etc. Also to be watched is the balance of iron (I became anemic at one point and needed IV iron supplements, now taking daily supplements), vitimins, fiber, acidity, and yin/yang balance. It's daunting to me to keep this all in balance all the time. You also touched on an issue I hit a lot which is energy level. Anyway, just thought I would share a perspective and say thanks for helping me keep to that path. I'll probably see you at your cooking class next month here in Santa monica at eric and sunaes :) Great post, thanks for remidinding me of things I should always have on mind.

Non-animal doesn't always mean healthy—that takes some intentionality and an understanding of balance.
