Celebrating the Holidays as a Vegetarian

Bay Area Vegetarians' Compassionate Living program examines and presents information related to vegetarianism and living a compassionate lifestyle.

This month we will have an informal and supportive discussion about celebrating the holidays as a veg*n, which for many of us means celebrating it with non-veg family and friends. Our discussion is geared towards supporting vegetarians to understand the holiday, recognize relationship issues, understand emotions, choose how to behave, create a degree of divergence in our meat eating families, and share ideas and strategies to have really good food and a really good time.

Our guest facilitator will be Carl Miller. Carl has been celebrating holidays for many years -- not always without ambivalence. He has been vegan for two years. He is currently engaged in a study of approaches to increasing empathy and compassion for animals and the environment, He is a counselor in Marin County and especially enjoys facilitating group discussion.

Please RSVP via evite so we can plan accordingly.
