You never forget your first time.

You never forget your first love, your first big game, your first (fill in your first favorite thing here). And when you build your own business, you never forget the first time the national media mentions you (and/or your business) in an article.

Well, today I received an email from Shanon Hoffman who found me through my LinkedIn.com profile. For those of you who don't know, Shanon is the Publisher of Healing Lifestyles & Spa Magazine - one of the premier media publications targeting the Health and Wellness reader and LOHAS advocates. The funny thing is, way back at the beginning of 2004, when ESSpa Kozmetika Organic Skincare & Spa was still located in our original 800 square foot shop with only 5 employees, I was contacted by a writer who was writing an article on healthy spa treatments that utilized fresh, natural ingredients that wanted to include what I was doing at ESSpa Kozmetika. So the writer and I chatted for a while and in my incredibly thick, Hungarian accent I explained that I was trying to bring a little bit of the Hungarian countryside and my traditional skincare techniques to the USA. And then I forgot about it - only to be remembered about 6 months later when my husband came running into the spa with a magazine that I had never seen happily yapping that my little spa was featured in an article in a national magazine that was on sale at Whole Foods (which had just opened in Pittsburgh to much fanfare). I invite you to Click Here and Read the Original Article. If you don't like to click on links - here is the "meat of the article"

Greens:
Whether you prefer spinach, kale, chard, or seaweed, dark leafy greens are a powerful source of vitamins and essential nutrients. Rich in phytoestrogens, minerals, and antioxidants, greens are showing up in facials and body treatments. Pittsburgh’s ESSpa Kozmetika SkinCare offers two veggie-based treatments, the 8 Greens Facial and Citrus Greens Back Treatment, both of which promise to exfoliate skin and combat breakouts."


So imagine my surprise when the Publisher of this national magazine sends me and email asking me to connect and join her Healing Lifestyles & Spas LinkedIn group? Of course I accepted her invitation and sent her an email back to say hello and share with her what I and ESSpa Kozmetika Organic Skincare have been up to for the past 5 years - growing, expanding, garnering more national attention, and otherwise just living a Healing Lifestyle.

Altogether, today's events made me acutely aware of how small our world has become, how interconnected we all have become and how important it is that we all try to work together towards a common goal of Healing and Health and Wellness.

In closing let me say that if you own a business that has anything to do with the LOHAS, health, wellness, spa and/or green communities, I urge you to visit Healing Lifestyles & Spa Magazine, read the articles, learn more about what our community is doing today and then contact Shanon to see if she can help your business thrive and be recognized for your achievements.

Spa You Soon,
