Six years old is a pretty magical age. After all: at six, children aren't babies any longer, yet they retain the vibrant imagination and energy of the very young. In terms of human lifespan, education and experience, however, they have a long way to go.
On the other hand, six is actually pretty grown-up for an electronic magazine, especially considering how old the medium is.
With this issue, Vibration completes six years of quarterly publication! This is a moment for us to take stock every year, looking back over the growth of the past year, and then forward to the exciting things to come next in our development! (Click on any of the covers of past issues to visit them.)
We're Still Vibrating from Last Year!
This year we offered special themes on Essences and Men's Issues... Essences to Strengthen us for Life's Challenges... Essence Users' Experiences... Essences for Happier Holidays... Essences for Pets and Their Owners... and another Practitioner's Special Section.
We now maintain an online library of hundreds of articles on cutting-edge essence topics (search for your topic or see our back index). No other essence publication can say as much... and Vibration is still free!
We also started offering online essences classes covering a variety of subjects offered by various instructors. We had a marvelous time teaching -- it's hard to say who learned more: the students or the teachers! Check out our courses here. In celebration of our anniversary, we will be offering our first telephone conference event next month! We plan on expanding our offerings... subscribers to Vibration will be informed of our class schedule as it develops.
Vibration's Offerings are a Labor of Love
We offer these pages as the most loving tribute we can create to our dear planet and her great, abundant, Divinely-endowed beauty. This work touches us at a deep level; we hope you, too, find yourself transformed by the beauty and wisdom of Nature that you find here.
We are just crazy about doing Vibration. We love the graphics work... that
should come as no surprise. We love learning more about the essences ourselves with
every issue, thanks to our authors. It is a joy to find people with information to give us
on essences and to help them find the voice to share that knowledge. And, most of all,
we love the readers who share this journey with us. Thank you, everyone, for six years of some of the most fun we've ever had.
Celebrating Our Contributors
Dozens of writers and artists have graciously and magnanimously lent us their work to grace our pages -- for which we and the essence world are deeply grateful. We are especially pleased to see that our contributors
more and more include not only seasoned essence practitioners, but also essence users.
We have added several new frequent contributors this year, including Connie Barrett, Dirk Albrodt, Lila Devi-Stone, John Stowe and Annabeth Meister. See bios of all of our frequent contributors along with links to their articles here.
