Review: Natural Awakenings Magazine

A few months ago my sister-in-law told me about Natural Awakenings magazine. I had been looking for some sort of natural or green publication, so I was excited when I found out about this. What a great resource!

In 1994, the first Natural Awakenings magazine launched in Naples, Florida. Today they are in 65 markets and growing. What makes this magazine so great is that it is specific to your region. That means in addition to its informative articles, it is also full of local green events and news as well as a directory of local green businesses. Imagine my surprise when I found out there is a natural salon and spa a few towns away! Now I can finally get a pedicure again! I also found an organic lawn care company whom I will be calling this Spring to take care of our tick problem. And just to make it extra special, they always feature artwork from a local artist on the cover. Oh yes, and it is FREE! Who doesn’t like free?

You can pick one up at most natural food markets and even at some major supermarket chains. I get mine at Stop & Shop. Or if you go online and find your local magazine, you can subscribe to the digital version which will be delivered to your inbox before the print one even hits the stands. So go sign up for it today!
