We kept the jar of bacon grease under the sink whi

We kept the jar of bacon grease under the sink while growing up. You can’t pour it down the drain because it will clog the pipes. So, what exactly do you think eating bacon does to your arteries?

Bacon grease is pure fat. Bacon itself is salt-cured pork belly. It’s loaded with fat, cholesterol and sodium, and while it does contain a minute amount of potassium, bacon has virtually no nutritional value. It literally contains zero micronutrients and zero fiber.

Unless you’re looking to clog your arteries, stay away from bacon - unless it’s plant based. Be kind to both your body and pigs.

Opportunities are abundant if you adopt that minds

Opportunities are abundant if you adopt that mindset. I remember my father saying “If you don’t see an opportunity, create one.” That’s what I’ve been doing to grow Vibrant Energy: creating opportunities for us. And I’m passionate about each and every one of them. New clients, new challenges and new opportunities to do what I love: inspire, educate, uplift and empower change that benefits people, animals and the planet. We are ready to soar. - Rick

As we pray for one Black superstar athlete, let’

As we pray for one Black superstar athlete, let’s recognize the very first. Marshall “Major” Taylor won the world cycling championship in 1899 to become only the second Black world champion in any sport. A year later, at age 22, Taylor won the US national sprint championship, setting many records on the velodrome. He won hundreds of cycling meets all around the world and would have won even more had he been treated fairly.

Despite Taylor’s extraordinary speed and athletic ability, he faced bigotry, hatred and racism. Lynching laws and Jim Crow laws combined to enforce segregation, erecting barriers that made it difficult and at times prohibited Taylor from competing in what was America’s most popular sport at the time. But the first celebrity Black athlete forced promoters’ hands by being a strong box office draw even if many of the spectators only showed up to hurl racial epithets at the cycling champ.

“In a word I was a pioneer, and therefore had to blaze my own trail," Taylor wrote in his autobiography, “The Fastest Bicycle Rider in the World.”

“There will always be that dreadful monster prejudice to do extra battle because of their color...Life is too short for any man to hold bitterness in his heart."

Meditate outdoors. Get away from the noise polluti

Meditate outdoors. Get away from the noise pollution of city life. Listen to the sounds of nature. When worldly thoughts swoop in attempting to steal your attention, go deeper still. Sink into the silence. Let the nourishing rays of sunshine refill your energy sources. Float through the rest of your day peacefully.

Think different. Those two words were Apple’s ad

Think different. Those two words were Apple’s advertising slogan a couple decades ago, but the concept remains relevant today, especially in the COVID era where change has been abruptly forced upon most of us.

For the majority, how we work has changed. How we meet, connect and socialize has changed. How we workout has changed. How we take on creative endeavors has changed, too. Think different. Work different. Socialize different. Create different. Eat different.

When I became a homeowner, a friend shared the wisdom that work on the house will never be finished. The same lesson applies to the body, the house for our soul. The body is always a work in progress, always in need of work, attention and care.

Whether exercising, training and developing your skills or focusing on nutrition, hydration and recovery, work on your body is never done. Not until you (the soul) leave it. - Rick

I noticed on social media that Seba Johnson spends a lot of time upside down. That actually makes sense because at age 14, she turned the Winter Olympics upside down when she became the first Black skier and the youngest alpine skier in Olympic history.

We met a few years ago at the Switch4Good Dairy-Free Athlete Summit and this vegan since birth glows. Radiant and vibrant, Seba loves hiking in nature or doing yoga by the ocean. It’s said that you’ll find whatever you look for and Seba’s superpower is that she sees hearts everywhere she goes.

Smart, compassionate, athletic, beautiful and a powerful pioneer, Seba is most definitely a #vibrantNRGizer. - Rick

People are getting the message the Universe sent i

People are getting the message the Universe sent in 2020! Sales of plant-based meats went up 264% in 2020. 40% of Americans have tried plant-based products and 33% of households have someone who went vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian or flexitarian in 2020, according to stats published in Parade magazine.

Almost all of the deadly pandemics that have emerged over the last 100 years have come directly from eating animals or how animals are treated by humans and a major cause of the climate emergency is a result of factory farming - the enormous damage that it does to the earth’s resources and the greenhouse gases it produces. So keep eating plant-based and dairy-free foods to help protect our health and the health of our planet.
