What a wonderful little book! I became a vegetarian four years ago, yet this book still explained things that I didn't already know, such as details on how vegetarians can meet their daily protein requirements, what vitamin and mineral supplements they should be taking, and what meat substitutes they can use (veat, tempah, seitan, etc.) As stated in the book, not only does vegetarianism make one healthier, but it also can elevate one's energy, help one become more psychic, and enhance one's spiritual growth. I became a vegetarian because of my love and compassion for animals, and it is truly one of the best things I have ever done! I definitely became more psychic and closer to God and all of His creation! In the beginning, I didn't think I could change my diet, but it really was very easy when I set my heart and mind into it! This book is not only for those who are thinking of going vegetarian, but also for those who already are! And definitely keep this book handy for continual reference! I know I will!

This is a wonderful book for anyone who has questions about becoming a vegetarian, or for people who already are vegetarian. It helps one to make informed decisions on the very personal choice of whether to eat meat and animal products. I became a vegetarian over two years ago after reading Dr. Virtue's book Divine Guidance, where she states that she was informed during meditation that her clairvoyance was being inhibited by eating meat and ingesting the pain from the animal flesh.

I highly recommend this book. I love the practical, how-to information included on how to shop for and prepare vegetarian food, as well as tips on how to order vegan and vegetarian meals in restaurants, and how to handle situations like eating meals with family and friends who do not follow a vegetarian lifestyle. The book is sized small enough so you can even take it with you in your purse or pocket to restaurants and health food stores for easy reference. It is a highly educational companion for anyone on a spiritual path, or anyone simply looking to make more healthful choices in their life.

I found this book pretty helpful. I especially liked the fact that they're not pushing strict anti-carnivourism as the only way. I also liked the fact that it is a smaller pocket size. I can take it when I go shopping and refer to it.

This is a short little book I bought because I was contemplating becoming a vegetarian for spiritual reasons. Eating In The Light spells out the different kinds of vegetarians and gives some general recommendations regarding nutrition and making the transition to vegetarianism all from a spiritual standpoint. If you already know about vegetarianism this may be too basic for you, but for the individual just beginning to contemplate the path, I think it's very helpful.

I read others' reviews before I bought this book and I have to say that I am very surprised that no one mentions that it is only a 4x6 inch, slim, pocket book! As you can imagine, it contains very little information. It will take you about half an hour to read, maybe an hour if you read slowly. If you are already a vegaterian, then you don't need to buy this - I promise you there is nothing that you don't already know in this book. If you are not a vegetarian, then you are better off buying a more comprehensive book on the subject...

Bought the book with trepidation, because my experience with most veggie authors has been preachy. This was refreshing in that it allows folks to be where they are . . and make gradual choices. Even one story where relationship and connecting at a friends meal was more important than being a purist vegetarian. Refreshing, well written and a great primer for those wanting to know how to eat correctly making the switch.

Love Doreen's books so I didn't even doubt I wouldn't like it, nor did I read the comments. I just purchased it, however, it just was not what I was expecting. I was hoping for a deeper discussion. I suppose if you are absolutely new to this way of eating then it is a helpful start, but if you are already eating vegetarian style, you already know this info. It had conflicting suggestions for food choices, one of which was the use of canned soup and frozen vegetables. (it had previously mentioned that there was no "life force" in this type of food) The use of the "Food Pyramid" as a guide was not a plus. Again, if your a beginner, this is a great and easy start for you (congratulations for starting), otherwise you can pass and buy another of Doreen's wonderful guides.

I love the work of Doreen Virtue so I was grateful to read this short but informative book.

This is a very informative book, both spiritually and factually. A must read for anybody who wants to start eating healthier. When it comes to healthy eating I would have to say the must haves are, Eating in the Light by Doreen Virtue and Skinny Bitch (I don't remember the authors of hand).
