Workshop, discussion and vegan food preparation

You've heard the phrase "you are what you eat" but most people think of just the physical effects of food.

Learn more about how our food choices have a greater impact on our well-being and the well-being of the planet at this free workshop with Erica Meier, Executive Director of Compassion Over Killing, and Sister Gita of the Meditation Museum. "Learn more about how food choices and food preparation affect our emotions, integrity and health and the ethical impact on animals and the environment."

Erica Meier has served as the Executive Director of Compassion Over Killing since 2005. She has taken the organization to new
heights with continued growth and accomplishments for animals. Vegan for 20 years, Erica has been working in the animal protection field since college. In 2013, she was honored with the prestigious Animal Rights Hall of Fame Award.

You can also listen to Erica Meier on the America Meditating Radio Show, hosted by Sister Jenna of the Meditation Museum.

If you haven't been to the Meditation Museum before, this unique space hosts lots of free workshops and events and also features a unique art museum with pictures, posters, paintings and sculptures, designed to remind us of our true, highest selves and our responsibility to humanity.
