HelloTucson! Welcome to our largest edition of Natural Awakenings each year—the 2023 Natural Living Directory. These pages are absolutely packed full of practitioners, businesses and professionals who are here in the Tucson area and beyond—all ready to help you in the next steps of your wellness journey.

Starting on page 10, the 2023 Health & Wellness Guide features profiles and spotlights to help you get to know the Tucson wellness community better. You’ll also find an expansive Community Resource Guide, with plenty of new faces alongside many familiar favorites who have been working with our readers for years.

Speaking of familiar faces, the bright smile you may recognize on our back cover is Dr. Elahe Wissinger, of E Dental Solutions. Get to know this spa-like dentistry practice in the Community Spotlight on page 38.

This edition also serves to focus on healthy eating, which is ideal to have handy in this issue that readers keep for the whole year. Choosing to eat healthier options is relevant every day. We don’t have to be perfect, but I’m sure we can all do better than we have been. On page 44, “Veggies for the Win” highlights reasons to live a plantbased lifestyle. Then, on page 50, we focus on ways to improve kidney health using diet.

But we didn’t forget the animals! Page 58 contains some great, natural remedies for common problems our pets may experience. Again, this is a great resource to keep at home so that you are ever prepared for every member of the household.

Thank you so much to the local community members who participated in this issue of Natural Awakenings, and to each one of our readers, who are the reason we are all here.

Cheers to your ongoing natural living journey,
