PERSONAL NOTE FROM KAREN

Dear Nature's Sunshine Members and Health Enthusiasts,

I apologize for the slow down in emails, blog updates, Nature's Sunshine events and contacts in the e-newsletters department over the summer. When my children are home from school, my whole world changes. If any of you have tried to call me and had a hard time getting through, that can be explained by the fact that my 16 year old has a girlfriend now and spends most of every waking hour on the phone with her. Again I apologize. Only one more week and they will all be back to their school schedules and my time should open back up.

I can complain a little, but honestly I am so grateful that my Nature's Sunshine Home business allows me the ability to make my own hours, and to spend so much time enjoying my children as a stay at home mom. It is a true blessing! I know many of you enjoy this same privilege with your Nature's Sunshine business and would love to help ALL my members to realize this kind of freedoms with your time.

During the summer months I have been working diligently on updating my address book, specifically those who have opted into my email newsletters (namely you). This has been a very big job and I'm hoping the updates will make it easier to send more timely updates. I have done this all manually, because I am trying hard to keep my email box always open, so that I can answer your emails quickly and so any help I can lend you is more personalized. I am strongly resisting the temptation to use programs and web services which would take the personalization away. Having said this, and understanding that my updates have all been manual (just one step away from being hand written on little note cards), please help me to keep you up to date by making sure I have your correct contact info (esp. email and phone number). You are all welcome to add my Skype phone (through my computer) to your address book, for the days when my home phone is tied up. It is 704-966-6645.

I will be celebrating the end of the summer and beginning of this school year with a wonderful trip to Dallas, Texas from August 22-27th, for our Nature's Sunshine National Convention. I know of at least two members in my downline who are traveling along with me from Charlotte, NC to the convention. One of my managers is bringing her husband to enjoy the experience. If any of you (members) are planning to attend I hope you will email me so we can meet there at the Gaylord Texan Resort during our stay. If you are not yet signed up, but want to attend, there is still room open for more attendees as far as classes go. If you are interested you can call customer service to sign up. It is my understanding that the Resort accommodations have been filled, but there are many members staying in nearby hotels.

There will be some fabulous speakers this years (as always). We will learn from Dr. Gary Null, nationally syndicated talk show host, producer of PBS specials, investigative reporter, New York Times best-selling author and award winning documentary filmmaker. His message is one of taking charge of your life and your health. Plus, you will be treated to an inspiring story of hope and courage from Captain Gerald Coffee. Captain Coffee spend seven years as a POW in North Vietnam. He will motivate you with his themes of leadership, loyalty, teamwork and the invincibility of the human spirit.

In addition, we will learn from our fellow Managers and other experts at the many workshops available. Our Home Office staff has put together an exciting group of presentations to help you increase your knowledge and grow your business.

Topics will include:

• Keeping Arteries Young
• Longevity at the Cellular Level
• Aging Beautifully
• Maintaining Mental Acuity
• Ancient Chinese Aging Secrets
• Plugging the Mitochondrial Leak
• Painless Aging
• Hormone Balance as You Age
• Aging and Vision
• Marketing Your Business Effectively
• The Entrepreneurial Mindset
• Making and Motivating Managers
• Finding New Customers
• Effective Client Follow-up

This is such an excellent opportunity to Get a top-notch education from experienced herbalists, medical experts and top NSP Managers, Witness the unveiling of new and improved products, Rub elbows with top Managers & renew acquaintances with old friends. If you think you would like to attend please call NSP customer service immediately as I believe final call is this Friday (18th).

When I return from Dallas, it is my intention to make phone calls to all of you who I have phone numbers for and to speak to each and everyone of you over September and October. This way I can find out in which ways I can help you in your health and/or your Nature's Sunshine business.

In September I am planning to invest in a Aqua Chi foot bath and will be taking appointments in my home. I will also be teaching more classes in both my home and in friends, families and members homes and in my managers stores. If you live near Charlotte, NC and are interested in this please give me a call. Anyone who hosts a class will have the opportunity to earn free Nature's Sunshine Products. We also have the Untold Truth seminar scheduled to hit Charlotte, NC in November. To find out where the Untold truth classes nearest you are being held, please check on the NSP site or call me for the information.

With the End of August near, and the slow summer having had an impact always on my August Sales, I am offering the opportunity to earn extra contest entries to all members in my downline. If you are not yet a member you can qualify for inclusion in this just by making a new member order.

Anyone making orders in August totaling between $1-$100 will get 4 free entry tickets into our monthly drawing contest. For anyone with orders totaling over $100. I will give 8 free entry tickets (signifying the 8th month). You can check out my web page http://www.herbsplus4health.com/page_contests to see some of the great prizes I have given away this year. The August prize will be The Daily 7 Workbook which features the Daily 7 Smoothie Drink and wonderful information about cleansing, digestion and absorption. This was one of the very first books I read, written by a fellow NSP member, which helped me to truly begin to get well. It is the book which helped me to keep my gallbladder and to begin enjoying a pain free stomach.

I look forward to speaking with many of you in the next few months and hope to see some of you in Dallas next week. Please let me know how I can help you best.

Share the Health,
Karen
