CELEBRATE FEBRUARY

On the calendar: February 14th. Spice it up for Valentine’s Day with a dinner for two at a new restaurant or old-time favorite. We have a few suggestions that are sure to fit the menu. Or, if you have the time, break away to get away to a secluded inn or resort and soak up the romance.

February can bring bountiful pleasures in other ways. Celebrating the Lunar New Year (the Year of the Rabbit) which culminates on February 5th is a fun way to visit Chinatown and participate in the Lantern Festival. It celebrates family reunions and features ancient spiritual traditions with food and fun. Many call this the true Chinese Valentine’s Day.

For this issue we met fabulous people who make this world a better place. What we found with these individuals is that they love their work with passion.

The owners of OsteoStrong Manhattan—Flatiron District, Park Avenue, and Upper West Side—share the latest in wellness Not a gym, diet, supplement, pharmaceutical, or medical treatment, OsteoStrong provides astounding results in a 15-minute once-a-week program to improve balance, strength, and build bone density. So, take a peek and meet these pioneers—Vincent Koo, Elaine Gonzales, Shawn Hauver, and Mackenzie McMahon.

Then we visited Cynthia Basinet, an astute businesswoman and thinker, who recognized and embraced the liberating power of new technologies to reach new audiences in entertainment with her creativity. As a recording artist, Basinet established a new channel of distribution for her music, using the Internet to bypass the traditional recording industry path to bring her releases directly to listeners wherever they may be located.

There we have it! All this plus features from Food & Drink, Travel, Health & Wellness, to Arts & Entertainment and a few inspiring Profiles. I hope you find this February issue informative and entertaining. Wherever February 2023 takes you, remember to focus on what really matters during this month—love and kindness.

See you next issue…
