Eating Animals = Bad Vibes—Here’s How It Affects Us Spiritually

When humans eat other animals, they’re literally consuming someone’s trauma. 😨 Besides propping up extreme cruelty, this also transfers all the bad vibes from that cruelty into humans. Keep reading to see what negative energy you’d be taking on by consuming animals—and check out Your Sign to Save Animals to learn more about manifesting a kinder world for them.

Confinement

Female pigs who are used to breed piglets to be raised for their flesh are often forced to live in tiny metal crates where they barely have enough room to turn around. Animals’ living conditions aren’t just miserable in the meat industry—the egg industry squishes up to a dozen chickens into the same cage, and the dairy industry keeps cows in such intensive confinement that many go lame. That means if you eat meat, eggs, or dairy, you’re also ingesting hella discomfort and suffocating claustrophobia.

Family Separation

The animal agriculture industry rips apart countless families for profit. The close relationships of chickens, turkeys, and pigs are destroyed. Mother cows can call for their calves for days after being torn away from them. Fish and lobsters get yanked away from their communities to be killed and eaten. All animal-derived foods are tainted with this heartbreak and loss. 💔

Abuse

Animals deserve to be in charge of their bodies—but the animal agriculture industry doesn’t see their bodies as anything more than $$$. Cows are forcibly impregnated to produce milk until they physically can’t anymore. Chickens are bred to get so big so quickly that their legs and organs can’t keep up. Think about all the exploitative energy you’d be shoving into your own body by eating animals.

Fear

Imagine being tied up or shackled upside down in a bloody slaughterhouse and watching your friends get their throats slit until you’re next. 😰 It’s giving slasher movie—but this nightmare is a reality for the animals who are slaughtered for their flesh or once they’re seen as no longer productive. Anxiety and dread should be listed as ingredients on the labels of animal-derived products.

A Painful Death

No matter if their throats are slit, their necks are broken, or their mouths are ripped with a hook as they’re yanked out of the water, animals used for food endure painful deaths. Every animal-derived food came from an animal who once had thoughts, feelings, and interests of their own. Consuming these foods means consuming pain and death—you don’t have to be a spirituality pro to know that’s a recipe for disaster.
