We at Natural Awakenings know that supporting the health of our population is of the upmost importance. We encourage everyone to be conscious of the social distancing mandate and to support our community by following the health guidelines set forth by our health professionals, and, of course, using common sense. We have received multiple reports from our providers of wellness and health services about how seriously they take following and maintaining the strictest guidelines as it relates to their office environments in creating the most safe and clean space they can for those that need to come in and use their services. For any doctor appointment, class, or service provider you want to visit, attend, or participate, we suggest you
