Green Soul Rising

GREEN SOUL RISING: A Plant-Based Journey to Holistic Enlightenment by Nathalie Etienne is a warm and inspiring book that encourages readers to transition into a plant-based, animal-free diet. In her quest to uncover a higher sense of spirituality and being, she begins to challenge the Black community’s relation to food, culture, and belief. Drawing on her Haitian background and experiences, Etienne shares her personal odyssey to forgo animal products, processed foods, and unhealthy cooking habits. She moves to dispel the notion that great tasting soul food and traditional African-diaspora foods alike are not conducive to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. GREEN SOUL RISING offers Pan-Africans an important first step towards achieving vitality and improving their overall quality of life. As Etienne guides you through a transformative series of growth, much like that of a budding plant, what will you find? Does culture in fact work to perpetuate detrimental habits, and when it comes down to it, can one truly choose health over tradition? The only book of its kind that addresses and explores diet as a lifestyle change, GREEN SOUL RISING: A Plant-Based Journey to Holistic Enlightenment provides a non-preachy and non-judgmental approach that helps people improve their eating habits from a cultural perspective.
