This July 2017 issue of Natural Awakenings Tampa Bay offers more cutting edge insights on ways and means we can, as individuals and as a community, get healthier and stay that way. Natural Awakenings continues to fly off distribution racks throughout the community with dazzling speed: evidence of an ever-growing community of fitness conscious individuals hereabouts. It pleases me to know that. The potential of the natural health movement to influence positive cultural change is enormous.

       In our feature article, writer and Natural Awakenings publisher, Meredith Montgomery, shares timely reminders in “Natural Ways to Cleanse Body & Mind” (page 26). The article includes inspiring news of cleansing practices to remove toxins that impact holistic health and a user-friendly outline for maintenance cleansing on a daily basis. 

       This month’s Healing Ways article by April Thompson, “Enlightening Ideas about Money”, is a thought-provoking exploration focusing on values of independence, intimacy and integrity. The ultimate goal is to realize financial wellness worthy of celebration. It’s definitely worth a read.

            On Tuesday, July 4, we celebrate the anniversary of our nation’s Declaration of Independence. This holiday stirs thoughts of more than a few heart-felt reflections on our nation-as-community.

As always, open your mind and read on.
