Well Being Journal began in 1991, when Scott and Martha Miners set out to publish something the newsstand did not yet offer: a magazine devoted to whole-person health.

Scott’s early work editing a publication on science, religion, and philosophy had drawn him toward deeper questions.

What is the power of the mind over the body? How much does nutrition truly change? What would it feel like to be completely healthy?

Those questions took form on a Macintosh Plus, where the layout for the first issue came together. It was, and remains, a family business.

By then, Scott had spent years watching a quiet shift in medicine. Healthcare professionals were turning to mind-body techniques, nutrition, and complementary care, often in place of drugs or surgery.

These natural approaches were helping people prevent disease and recover from illnesses both minor and serious, including cancer. Scott’s response was to document it: the stories, the science, the evidence for natural health.

That purpose still guides us. Our editorial decisions rest solely on the merit of each article. No advertiser has a voice in what we publish, though we are grateful to those who offer genuine health services and products in these pages.

What began as a regional publication now reaches readers across the country and beyond, in print and digital editions.

You will find the Journal in stores throughout North America, including Whole Foods, Sprouts, Barnes & Noble, Natural Grocers, and many regional chains and co-ops such as PCC, New Seasons, Nature’s Own, and Healthy Nutrition.

We hope you enjoy and benefit from what you find here, on our site and in print.

We think you will be glad you subscribed to our bimonthly print and weekly digital publication, and you may also enjoy exploring our library of back issues.

A keyword search across the site may turn up exactly what you need.

To your well-being,
