VEGANIK: INTRODUCTIONS ARE IN ORDER
Vol. 1: I am Nik's 1st Blog. Allow me to introduce myself.
Hey there. Nik Tyler here... I'm an actor, mixed media artist, writer, filmmaker, animal rights activist, vegan & newly-proclaimed "alkalarian" who lives in LA and loves chillin' with his creative friends, spending time with happy canines, watching indie cinema in empty art house theaters, sauntering down the street to an electric iPod beat, dreaming at the ocean, grubbing alkaline food, cooking gourmet meals for vegan girls late at night... No, this isn't my online dating profile, I promise.This is my first official blog... ever. I'm stoked and honored to be making my cyber-world blogging debut on the prestigious Discerning Brute. One of the things I value most about the internet is our ability to easily and openly exchange ideas, information and knowledge by the simple click of a mouse and the rhythmic percussion of our keyboards. The Discerning Brute symbolizes that place where ethical gents can go to get a daily dose of new, interesting, mind-expanding insight, advice and knowledge on how to improve their lives and become even more compassionate towards all living beings (including themselves). What could be better than that?
So, in the spirit & hopes of sharing cool, ethical experiences, new-findings, off-the-beaten path advice, gourmet vegan-alkaline recipes/meals, lip-smacking-drool-inducing culinary pictures, and some other random-but cool-related topics I haven't yet conjured up, I'd like to offer you a free ticket that will never expire, on the ride of my life... There is no height requirement for this roller-coaster, all you need is a computer, open eyes, open mind and an open heart.
I've Been Shot!
My first bit of advice is an easy enough habit to start, and it packs an energy punch that kicks caffeine's ass. I'm beginning everyday with a shot of Chlorophyll - you can't OD on this awesome stuff - it's derived from high quality alfalfa leaves and is imperative to the process of photosynthesis. The brand that I really dig is World Organic Chlorophyll. It tastes great and you feel the energy surging through your body immediately. You can pick up a bottle of this green goodness at any Whole Foods, neighborhood co op, healthfood store or at several online retailers.
