In the Spirit: The EDGE Interview
with Michael McDonald

by Rita Gallagher Rosenberg

It's been said of the visionary, five-time Grammy Award-winning -- and yes, former Doobie Brother -- Michael McDonald that he has "soul to spare." The prolific singer/songwriter, now in the process of cutting a Motown hits CD has also sung duets with other music greats like Aretha Franklin, Kenny Loggins, Patty LaBelle and Bonnie Raitt. And speaking of soul, one person said about his Christmas CD, In the Spirit: "Anybody who's got a soul needs to get a copy of this album." Someone else said, "This music's so good it tricks people into (getting close to) God."
A New Perspective: How you view your Pets has much to do with their wellness
From the Editor | by Tim Miejan

Our featured topic this month, holistic pet care, I must admit stemmed from not only my own experience -- and success! -- with treating my pets with holistic modalities, but a growing awareness that the dogs and cats and birds and lizards and hamsters and snakes that are our pets are more than belongings we play with and then put away for a rainy day.
Interview with the Twintreess
by Karleena Ravenwood
I smile at the Twintreess (Marilyn and Tohmas). They don't look like Twins. Tohmas, tall and lean, gazes at me deliberately and intensely, while Marilyn keeps falling out of her chair with a laugh twice her size. Still, the more I talk with them, they more I hear the same passion -- a commitment to their spirits always. It fills my heart. And I think, it will yours, too.
