Don't worry, you didn't miss an issue! We've just decided to send your eNewsletters on the first of the month from now on. We really like new beginnings!

The "unofficial" entrance of fall came in New York just as our Natural Health Seminar series kicked off last Thursday! The event was a great success, and if you were unable to attend, we'll have portions of the presentations from Dr. Lauri Grossman (on Homeopathy) and Dr. Ann Covalt (on Oriental Medicine) available on YouTube shortly, as well as on TheHolisticOption.com. We'll post links in the October eNewsletter, too!

Due to the overwhelming response from so many community members, we've been asked to hold our second seminar event in New York City, and then move on to other parts of the country - each time with different presenters and topics. We're building a team of volunteers across the United States to assist in our national efforts, so if you're interested, email info@TheHolisticOption.com, subject line "Seminar Staff", (with your name, location and how you can help in your geopgraphic area), and we'll get back to you promptly.

Daniel Vitalis and Seth Leaf on Holistic Health & Wellness
With all this talk about bringing people together in the name of health -  and in the face of all that's going on in the world - we think this week's episode of Holistic Health & Wellness is fitting! I had the pleasure of interviewing Daniel Vitalis (Elixir Craft) and Seth Leaf (Living Nutz) about their new venture, SurThrival, and what it means to "thrive through all circumstances". (Don't forget to check out more details on our HHW Podcast Blog.) Click here to listen now!

We'd love to hear from you! Send your requests for Holistic Health & Wellness guests, feedback about the new Holistic Ensurance program, general questions or comments to info@TheHolisticOption.com.

Yours in whole health,
