Welcome to A Squared Essentials!


Whether you are 100% plant-based…or just vegan-curious…we are here to support you on your adventure! We provide tips and how-to’s from all parts of our plant-based life…our kitchen, our home, our workouts, and our travels! After all, being healthy is not just about what you eat….it’s how you live! Mind, Body, and Stomach!

We do our best to share ideas about reducing toxins throughout our lives, through what we eat, what we put on our bodies, what we use in our home, and how we sweat them out!

Wherever you are in your journey, we’re glad you’ve made it here!
