With the warm and beautiful environment and favorable weather of South Carolina Beaches, healthy minded people have been moving to the newly created communities in the area, from Georgetown to Little River; from Florence to Socastee; and from Dillon to Pawleys Island.  Many of these new families come with nature, conservation and health in mind, including the many retirees who enjoy the sunny weather and want to take good care of their health.

Keith Waller and Anton Knoll established the Grand Strand Edition in September of 2006, because of their personal beliefs in conservation, health and living in integrity.  Natural Awakenings is the ideal venue to bring the healthy living community together with information, stories, local news and community resources.   The inaugural issue arrives in January 2007 at locations all over Horry and Georgetown counties, and soon in Williamsburg, Marion, Dillon, and Florence counties.
