Updated Writer's Guidelines

Thank you so much for wanting to contribute to Our Soul Oasis Magazine. We take pride in what we present to our readers and these guidelines help the publishing process go smoothly.

1. No Sales / Marketing. We provide value to our readers. You are welcome to have a link in the beginning of the magazine, at your byline, and you'll have an opportunity for really affordable ad space and a directory listing. All the content should be value driven with no sales driving content. The sales will happen, after you provide value. This is the #1 mistake contributors make. This kind of content will not be published.

2. No bullets or special formatting in your submission.

3. Send all submissions to Wendy@OurSoulOasis.com with your links, title, and info in 1 email so it is easy to reference. Even if you've already sent it for a previous issue, send it, again. Let's keep all the info flowing for publishing time. Please read: Copy your text and content into the body of your email. You can also send the attachment but please have all the copy in the body of the email. Thank you!

Your subject line should read as this example: For Publication: (Insert Title Here)

4. Send all ad info and art submissions to Wendy@OurSoulOasis.com with your photos, links, and text in 1 email.

5. Byline should be no more than 2 lines and 2 links.

6. Material needs to be fresh and not published elsewhere. NO REPRINTS. Re-purposing content is fine, but the words need to be fresh.

Consciously Processing Emotion by Vito Mucci

As we grow up there are a litany of skills we are taught in school, and, depending on our home life, another set of skills we are taught at home. Unlike banking or paying taxes or organizing bills, nothing in our lives as young adults forces us to learn this skill as a natural part of adulthood. In fact, we are generally unaware that it is important at all, even though our inability to do it disrupts our lives on a daily basis. This skill is the conscious processing of emotion. I grew up with a notion, maybe you did too, that people with emotional problems or addictions can't cope with life. When I was buried in panic and alcohol, my "inability to cope with life" was not an actionable thing to improve. I would ask "How can I cope with life better?"

Creating a Life of Kindness by Dr. Wendy Rae D.D.

Mark Twain nailed the concept of kindness in one sentence: Kindness is the only language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see. 20 years ago, sifting through a small town library in northwest Iowa, I stumbled upon a book of quotes. At the time I was editor of the weekly newspaper and was always looking for inspiration to pass along to the community. Little did I know that this small book of quotes was going to impact me two full decades later. In one of the sections of the quote book was a particular area that I found myself reading repeatedly. It was the section on kindness. At that time, I was going through some huge personal issues and I was struggling with how to remain open to possibility, keep my motivation high, and how to be a positive influence for my 6 old daughter. Three quotes from that book have stayed with me. “A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.” Steve Maraboli “The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the greatest intent
