Natural Awakenings Healthy Living Magazine
We would like to take a moment to introduce ourselves. My name is Mary Piirsalu along with Stephanie Abrusia and we are the publishers of Natural Awakenings Healthy Living Magazine - Serving Somerset, Middlesex and Hunterdon Counties We are very excited to bring this free monthly publication to our community coming this September. You may already know the magazine as we currently have thriving editions in Morris, Union, Sussex and Essex Counties and new to the Natural Awakenings family is Bergen County NJ and Manhattan New York. We are focused on reaching local people who are striving to live healthier, greener, more natural lives. Nationally we reach over 2,500,000 health-conscious readers in more than 54 other communities across the country every month. Our magazine was founded in 1994 by Sharon Bruckman in Naples, FL and continues to connect, educate and empower people within the ever-growing holistic health and wellness network.
We are committed to helping you expand your business and connect with like-minded practitioners in your communities and beyond. Simply put, not only do we want to connect with you, we want to help you connect with one another. Since its inception our magazine exists purely to help get the word out about your wonderful work and services, and to help bring together those with needs and those who provide services to meet those needs. Connecting people within the health, wellness, art and environmental community is what we're ALL about. Our primary goal is to be THE resource guide, the "Holistic Chamber of Commerce" that people in NJ can use to find practitioners, events and products right in their own home towns.
Each month the magazine will bring both local and national news, health briefs, interesting editorials, and a local calendar of events, a community resource guide and many, many other articles that provide information on various topics throughout the calendar year. Please visit our website at WWW.NJlivehealthy.com. We are initially offering free calendar of events so we invite you all to submit your events and help us fill up our community calendar. It's a great way to boost attendance at your events and get word out about the myriad of offerings right here in our own backyards. Our website makes submission of calendar events, classified ads and news briefs convenient and simple. Just click on the dropdown tab named "advertising". The website will guide you how to submit. We of course welcome all phone calls.
Because this is a free magazine, we rely solely on our advertisers for support. We have advertising rates suitable for all budgets so please inquire. You might be pleasantly surprised! Our experienced ad design team can help you design something that will catch eyes and create movement for your business. There is room and opportunity for everyone in our publication. We offer options ranging from writing local news brief, health brief or becoming a distribution site (which includes 5 free Calendar Event listings every month). We also welcome local artist to submit their artwork for our cover.
You will find us at health expo's, fairs, shops, classes and many local events gathering photos and information about your products, events and services to run in the magazine. We'd love to meet you, hear about your upcoming events, perhaps do an interview for an editorial piece and discuss how Natural Awakenings can help grow your business and connect us all with a better, healthier community.
We believe it's time to act and make our world a happier and healthier place, both locally and globally. We can do this by uniting our talents, communicating and sharing our positive beliefs so everyone can improve their health, their environment, and their outlooks. If these ideas resonate with you too, please drop us a line or a call and we would be more than happy to spend some time talking with you about the magazine and how we can achieve this together. Please share this with like-minded friends and practitioners and watch for the magazine this September. Thank you all for spending the time reading this and we look forward to meeting you!
