The Holistic Interconnected Network of Knowledge
Who are we? Under the direction of Shelley Brienza, Sacandaga Digest Publishing and Sacandaga Sun publication, T.H.I.N.K. was created to promote members within the holistic community by interconnecting our shared knowledge or practices. What are we? We are a free service where you can access extraordinary benefits. We are a vehicle to help you grow your business in a non-traditional way. We are a network of like-minded individuals that will share knowledge of the body, mind and the spirit realm by teaching others what is available as alternative wellness or holistic lifestyle choices. As people’s awareness has grown to understand the inter-connections between mind, body, spirit, and soul, or put another way, everything is inter-related, nothing is separate, and we believe we are here to help share all that information with everyone. When can you access this? You may access this service as soon as you sign up to become member. Where can you sign up? Online at our Facebook page, Sacandaga Digest or through email at [email protected]. The reason WHY we are creating this platform is because we BELIEVE it is necessary to have a central location where people can locate any holistic business information and education and support. The feeling of fulfillment comes from helping someone else. This is part of WHY we want to do this. We are inspired to do good for others. Why do YOU need this network? 1.
