Why Vegan?

I get asked so much why I chose to become a Vegan. Unlike most, never did I watch any videos or documentaries about what as human beings we do to animals. It all came with the change in my consciousness. 
As soon as I realized about the power of meditation I started practicing as much as I could. Every time I had some free time, I would meditate. It just made feel much better, lighter and my mind was not all over the place. I reached a point where I couldn't bring myself to eat more meat; the thought of it fully hurt my being. I knew it was because of the connectivity I was feeling; the Oneness of humanity and the Oneness of every single living being on our Mother Earth. The most important thing... I couldn't hurt anything at all, neither did I want to; I saw the reflection of myself in everything, so how could I hurt anything and at the same time hurt myself? My heart couldn't take it any longer.
I wanted to go straight to vegan, but I wasn't the one cooking at the time so I had to adapt. The kitchen was a total different world to me. I became a Pescatarian in June of 2015, but I was mostly eating like a vegetarian, so I considered myself as one. In February of 2016, I switch completely to Vegan, given that my consciousness was sky rocketing because of my Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training. 
I used to have really bad anemia problems, to the point that I had to get a blood transfusion during the fall of 2013. The moment I changed my diet, it all stopped. It goes beyond the diet though. I started to get even more connected with everything in our Universe, and my life was transforming deeper.
Today, I feel better than ever, physically, mentally and spiritually and I am beyond grateful for everything in my life.
