letter from the publisher

What June means for Cindy and I has changed over the years. Once upon a time June was the first month of freedom as school was out for the year and we could sleep late, go swimming at the public pool and dream about the vacation trip we might go on. As adults and magazine publishers there isn’t that annual lazy hazy time. Every month there is a new issue to put together and publish but we do both enjoy gardening and walking outside before the weather gets too hot and we are glad that we will be able to continue doing both at The Cabin.

As last month focused on women’s health, this month we look at men’s health, specifically, the health issues that men tend to deal with more often. The approach that Natural Awakenings takes isn’t just to focus on fixing health problems but finding an integrative holistic approach to overall wellness. For those of you who ARE going somewhere on vacation this year, there are articles to help you continue to eat healthy on your travels and to be kind to the Earth. For those of us who are mainly staying home, there are articles to show you how to used gardening to stay fit and how to make your yard safer for your four-footed companions. There really is something for everyone this month, not just us men.

Cindy and I hope you have a super great June this year and as things begin to finally open back up with large group events and activities that you stay safe.
