PUBLISHER'SLETTER I
never thought I would be writing a publisher’s letter quite like this one. In the span of a little over a month, our lives have been turned upside
down. Even this issue is “upside down” in that we are publishing it digitally only in May and going to print for June. I certainly never thought that would happen either! But as many of you know, I am always looking for the positive and I believe we have been given an
incredible opportunity with COVID-19.
For us here at Natural Nutmeg, it’s allowed us to expand our digital reach in an amazing way! I started hosting daily live Zoom Lunch & Learn interviews with our expert writers and advertisers discussing strategies on coping with CO- VID-19 from a health/relationship/fi nancial perspective to uplifting topics related to how to lead a healthy and conscious lifestyle. We launched a Virtual Holistic Networking group for holistic practitioners and business owners in Connecti- cut to meet monthly and discuss best practices and how to support eachother. We’ve been supporting as many businesses as we can by helping get the word out about their virtual services and online classes. While it doesn’t replace the connection we feel at a live event or face to face meeting, at least we can still “see” eachother during this diffi cult time.
Change for many brings elements of fear. Sometimes it may feel as if things are being ripped away from us even if it’s something we’ve asked for or have outgrown. As creatures of habit, we feel more comfortable when things stay the same and when we know what to expect. But that doesn’t allow for growth. In order for us to evolve, we must accept that change is necessary and we must look at it as a benefi cial thing. We must learn to allow people and things to fl ow in and out of our lives without trying to hold on too tight. I believe if we can do this, we will all come out of this better than before.
Also, don’t forget we’re launching the First Edition of The CT Healthy Aging
Resource to be distributed in Summer, 2020. This will be an annual edition of Connecticut’s vetted resources of practitioners and businesses that provide ser- vices to people 50+ and their caregivers, and will be a resource that people will save and pass on to others.
In Health and Happiness,
ur mission is to provide valuable in- sight, information and resources that will allow our readers to maintain a healthy, active, sustainable lifestyle.
