Two Years and Counting!

This is the September 2014 issue of Natural Awakenings of Central New Jersey.  It represents our second anniversary publishing in the counties of Somerset, Middlesex, Hunterdon Counties. It also represents my two-year anniversary of publishing. Natural Awakenings has changed my life in so many ways. It has made a difference in my family—our lives and our direction.  My hope is we have made a difference in some way to our community, our readers, and our advertisers.

In the last two years we have made many changes.

  • Recently we purchased a portion of Warren County and now distribute as far north as Hackettstown.
  • A new section of our website has been designed to include a holistic directory, events calendar and a volunteer finder.
  • Distribution to major supermarkets has been increased.
  • We have made a commitment to promoting not only our magazine but our advertisers on social media.
We have grown over the last couple of years, and I want to thank everyone involved for that support. I love what I do, and I want to grow more and more because I believe in what our magazine represents. We are dedicated to the message of enjoying live, laughing more, loving more, and hugging more.  We also believe the message of our magazine, which is take care of self, community, family, our children and our planet.

We would love to hear how you think we can be a more positive influence, or just improve, our magazine. Drop me an e mail at [email protected], and let us know.

Peace, gratitude and thanks from the entire staff at Natural Awakenings, Joe_signature620x350
