Publisher's Note

October/November 1996


Welcome to the pages of earthlight! This publication has been many years in the making, if you count the time that Nancy and I have been following our spiritual paths. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve a community of holistic-minded readers and businesses.

As the new millenium approaches, it is clear that many of our economic and political structures are changing. We believe these changes are merely the outward signs of inner, personal transformation. For example, traditionally the top considerations in seeking employment were job security, benefits, and high salary. For various reasons many of us have re-prioritized, and are now more concerned with quality of life, wellness, and spending time with our families. If economic and political structures do not change to accomodate these new priorities, they will crumble and fall. We have seen such decline elsewhere, in other countries, where those in power cling desperately to the old ways. But change is not only healthy and good, it is inevitable.

In our premier issue, we are pleased to present an interview with Alan Cohen, one of many popular inspirational authors of our time. Joan Borysenko reminds us to appreciate and be thankful for everything that's right with ourselves and the world. Marcia Yudkin shares some tips fopr reducing stress and managing the work day by respecting our natural, motivational rhythms.

Probing beyond physical boundaries, Anne Irwin and columnist Carol Heideman offer explanations for our circumstances in life, and for the frantic energy surges many of us have felt in recent weeks. Also, we introduce the theme of "technology meets spirituality" with an overview of quantum mechanics and its mystical implications for society in the near future.

These articles and much more have been assembled for your reading pleasure. We hope you will find them enjoyable, thought-provoking, and, in some cases, perhaps a bit unsettling. Sometimes you have to rock the boat a little to slip away from impediments that lie beneath the surface. In closing, please support our advertisers (they make earthlight! possible) and send us a note or some email to let us know what you like and don't like.

Warmly,

Guy McCarthy
