Letter from the Publisher

As the crisp autumn air sweeps through the streets and the leaves turn into vibrant hues, I couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome the enchanting season of fall. Autumn offers a unique opportunity to rejuvenate and refocus our well-being. In this edition, we explore holistic wellness practices that nurture the mind, body, and soul. Discover a delicious indigenous recipe from Chef Loretta Barrett Oden, a member of the Potawatomi Nation, invigorating pilates workouts, and healing practices that restore, balance, and uplift the spirit. Immerse yourself in nature’s beauty by visiting a local pumpkin patch, such as Wings. More than a joyous activity with friends and family, visiting a pumpkin patch allows you to reconnect with the natural world and soak in the beauty of the autumn surroundings. The vibrant colors, earthy smells, and the sound of crunching leaves underfoot awaken your senses, promoting mindfulness and presence in the moment. As we embark on this wellness journey together, may the gentle embrace of fall inspire you to prioritize self-care, cultivate healthy habits, and embark on a path of holistic well-being.
