More quotes by Victoria Moran
If you've ever tried meditation and didn't stay with it, I recommend you try it again. Some time has passed. In the interim, you may have developed the discipline of mind or the patience you were short on before. Let these qualities aid your practice. (173)

Beauty at 70 years old isn't the same as beauty at 20 years old, but it is stunning nonetheless.
Victoria Moran
As a society, we need to get lots more flexible about what constitutes beauty. It isn't a particular hair color or a particular body type it's the woman who grew the hair and lives in the body. Keeping this in mind can only make things better.
Victoria Moran
You give up on what you need to be doing because you forget that you're worth it. This is why most people aren't leading exemplary lives...You have to believe in yourself so much that you're willing to do what's uncomfortable, time-consuming, inconvenient, and on occasion seemingly impossible. When you don't believe in yourself this much, pretend.

In terms of days and moments lived, you'll never again be as young as you are right now, so spend this day, the youth of your future, in a way that deflects regret. Invest in yourself. Have some fun. Do something important. Love somebody extra. In one sense, you're just a kid, but a kid with enough years on her to know that every day is priceless.

That old saying about opportunity only knocking once is as archaic as the flat-earth theory and as patently untrue. Opportunity knocks all the time - and it rings your doorbell, calls you up, and sends you e-mails.
Victoria Moran
As I see it, a green salad is an open invitation to carrots, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and the sprouts that grow in jars on my kitchen counter.
Victoria Moran
Moderation is actually the flip side of dieting, that is, imposed deprivation.
Victoria Moran
I need a spiritual connection - I can make changes, but I can't make miracles - and I need people around me who'll support me and believe in me and tell me the truth and not let me deceive myself into avoiding the what's scary and hard and necessary.
Victoria Moran
When it comes to literal nourishment, the food we eat, life begets life.
Victoria Moran
It simply feels right to me to blend the glittery delights of New York City with a largely raw vegan diet - with the soul-deep conviction that animals are not ours to eat, wear, exploit or experiment on.
Victoria Moran
Enjoy your food, enjoy your life.

My calling, as one imperfect human, is to celebrate and uphold life every time I get the chance.
Victoria Moran
A simple life is not seeing how little we can get by with-that's poverty-but how efficiently we can put first things first. . . . When you're clear about your purpose and your priorities, you can painlessly discard whatever does not support these, whether it's clutter in your cabinets or commitments on your calendar. (148)

Yoga will always be transformationa l, even when it stops being cool.
