Natural Awakenings Naples and Fort Myers

Editorial Submissions

Your editorial submissions are what make Natural Awakenings a community resource for holistic and natural living. We want our readers to get to know you. Submitting editorial for one or more of our departments provides you with the opportunity to share knowledge and bring focus to your business.

News Briefs & Kudos Submissions

NEWS BRIEFS: Just as the name implies, a News Brief is a timely, newsworthy item that typically makes an announcement to readers. Whether you’ve opened a new office, have a special event coming up or are offering a new therapy, we want to hear about it. News Briefs must be written in third person and relevant to our subject matter. This is not an advertisement and should not be written as such. We reserve the right to edit all submissions.

KUDOS: Do you have someone in mind who deserves special recognition for a recent achievement? Did you just pass your licensing exam? We want to let everyone know in a Kudo.

News Brief/Kudos Submission Guidelines

  • Length: 50-250 words.
  • Style: Write in 3rd person. (Please, no “I, me, we, our, my, mine, you or yours.”)
  • Deadline: The deadline for submitting News Briefs is the 8th of the month prior to publication. 
  • Late submissions are at risk of not being considered.
  • We are unable to feature all submissions because of space limitations.
  • Current display advertisers will receive first consideration, as they help to support our free publication.
  • We also feature briefs about nonprofits whenever possible.
  • We reserve the right to edit all submitted news briefs.

Health Briefs Submissions

Health Briefs highlight the latest research studies, trends and tips in easy-to-digest articles of 50 to 200 words. Each focuses on a particular topic, such as food, supplements, self-care, beauty, balance and fitness. Submissions should always contain doable solutions or pertinent research findings on common conditions or health issues. 

  • Length: 50-250 words.
  • Deadline:  Due on or before the 8th of the month prior to publication.
  • Briefs should be written in layman’s terms, and impart information in a way that does not sound self-serving.
  • We reserve the right to edit all submissions if necessary; for longer features, a copy of revisions can be returned upon request.
  • Please include a brief biography at the end of your article.
