can do, and some of the many outstanding places in our area that can help you. • Cut back on waste (food, electricity, products and packaging) • Shop locally (try Warners’ Stellian, New Moon Metaphysical Store and Organic Aah)
• Grow your own flowers, fruits and vegetables • Barter for services (check out a company called Itex) • Shop at second-hand stores (try Planet Thrift, in Little Canada) • Buy products and services from solo entrepreneurs (such as Daisy Girl Bath, Cat Clinic, Big Heart Coaching and Kelly Lewis Coaching)
• Love yourself and take good care of your mind and body (visit SuNu Wellness Center, Aark Advanced Electrolysis, Inspiring Health, Upper Room Wellness Center, Body Harmony Chiropractic, Psinergy Natural Health, VitaClay, Nature’s Inventory and Tooth by the Lake)
Every choice you make has an impact. Every. Single. One. What does it matter if you leave a light on in a room? Drop a gum wrapper on the
sidewalk? Throw out one-fourth of the food that you buy? If you think it doesn’t make a difference, just imagine if everyone did the same. Now imagine if each one of us took action by shutting off a light and training our children to do the same thing; picking up that littered gum wrapper and setting a good example; buying less food and using more of what we do buy. That’s where Natural Awakenings can help. This magazine seeks to educate and update, uniting our voices to create a community of helpful citizens, dedicated to mak- ing our lives better by making the world better. Start where you are. Do what you can. And don’t think you don’t make a differ- ence, because you do.

NAtwincities @natwincities SUBSCRIPTIONS Blessings and Love to All,
ur main theme for October is the environment, focusing on the many things you can do to make a difference. Even for those
who may not believe in humankind’s impact on climate change, there’s still a responsibility for us to be good stewards of the Earth, as well as the good stewards of our own lives and resources. You don’t have to do everything, but you can do some things. As time goes on, maybe you’ll do more. Here are a few things you
