How to Read the Current and Past Issues of Natural Awakenings

Updated

Natural Awakenings publishes its issues on its own website. To read the latest edition, open the homepage and look for the issue block near the bottom of the page, where you'll find a Read Now link for the current issue and a View Past Issues link for the archive. Both are direct reading entry points, so you don't need to search the site menu to find them.

Reading the Current Issue

  1. Go to naturalawakenings.com.
  2. Scroll to the issue section, which sits below the article and recipe listings.
  3. Confirm you're looking at the right edition — the block is labeled with the issue month and year (for example, "October 2026 Issue").
  4. Select Read Now to open that issue.

The homepage also surfaces individual pieces from the current issue as articles, including the Feature Story, Wise Words, Conscious Eating, and Recipes. If you only want one item, you can open it directly from the homepage instead of going through the full issue.

Browsing Past Issues

Select View Past Issues in the same issue block to see earlier editions. This is the archive path for back issues; the homepage itself only highlights the current one.

What You'll Find Alongside the Issues

The site mixes magazine issues with a steady stream of web articles, so it helps to know which section you're in:

Section What it contains
Issue block Current issue (Read Now) and archive (View Past Issues)
Article categories Change Makers, Conscious Eating, Eco Tips, Feature Story, Fit Body, Global Briefs, Green Living, Healing Ways, Health Briefs, Healthy Kids, Homeopathy, Inspiration, Natural Pet, Recipes, Wise Words
Trending Now Spotlight stories and recent features
Upcoming events Event listings
Featured Businesses Directory-style listings for local practitioners and businesses

If you're looking for a specific topic rather than a full edition, the article categories are the faster route. If you want the complete edition as published, use Read Now or View Past Issues.

Subscriptions

The site includes subscribe and subscription entry points, which indicate that a subscription option exists. The homepage material doesn't state pricing or whether reading issues online requires an account, so check the subscription page itself before assuming access terms.

Common Snags

  • Can't find the issue block: it appears below the article and recipe content, not at the very top of the homepage.
  • Unsure which issue you opened: the issue label (month and year) appears with the Read Now link.
  • Looking for a single article later: use the article categories or Trending Now rather than paging through back issues.
