So, in this second month of 2016, how are your New Year’s resolutions going? Are you on track? Or are you like the majority of Americans that are by now struggling with, or maybe never started, their resolutions? Well, that’s OK. Regardless of your resolution status, anytime is the right time to start (or restart) a change for the good in your life and for those around you.

This month we have articles and information to inspire and enlighten you in the areas of relationships and your well-being, learning that strong social bonds and interactions are key to happiness. With Valentine’s Day coming up, our article on eco-friendly dating will give you tips on finding kindred spirits interested in romance. Alyssa Milano shares her anti-aging secrets with us and we also feature some great information on health and nutrition.

We invite you to interact with the Natural Awakenings Atlanta community through our Facebook page and on Twitter. Tell us how and why 2016 will be a remarkable year for you. How do you and your friends support each other in healthy, sustainable lifestyles? Share it with us and others when you find ways or things that help you attain your goals.

Last month we started gathering info through our poll (naAtlanta.com/tell-us-2/) on what type of events our readers and supporters are interested in attending. Thanks for the feedback so far. We will continue collecting this info on our website and through Facebook and Twitter. Then we will let you know what we found out and which local events we will work on. Have a great February!
