Munai Life magazine A different look on community, spirit, art, healthy living, culture and life. Munai — sounds like "moon-eye" and it means "to love" in Quechua (Inca) Munai Life is a new magazine about how we live, what we value, and what sustains us. Motivated by the movement toward spiritual, cultural, and ecological awareness, it is a venue for thoughtful and creative people to express practical ways for us to become more cooperative, present, artful, and balanced in our everyday lives. This is not just another fluffy-fuzzy-feel-good magazine, but it is a place to share the challenges, intentions, and actions that bring us closer to Munai in the everyday existence of our world. It is a down to earth approach. We are a magazine that is dedicated to the promotion, encouragement, and sharing of the greater common love of our planet, our humanity, and our Selves. We aim to provide a space for all people to share the challenges, intentions, and actions that help us move forward toward a more harmonious and diverse world. A space for all people that have been able to find, express and share Munai in their every day lives. We want to share your stories and experiences, your thoughts and ideas, so that others may be inspired to embrace the transformative power of Munai . We ask that you share Munai Life with those that don't know about it yet. Four to six times a year, Munai Life will explore this growing alternative worldview through letters, articles, artwork, short stories, poems, interviews, reviews, photo-essays, and more. We are open for submissions and contributions of letters, articles, photos, illustrations, product reviews (books, CD’s, and other products), art pieces, and story ideas to be included in our magazine. Submissions can be in any style: Non-fiction or fiction, prose or poetry, artwork or graphic design, photograph or film, spoken word or music recording - we're open to anything positive that follows our purpose. Holistic practitioners and businesses whose personal articles are accepted for publication will be given (up to) 1/4 page ad in exchange.   We encourage all people that have Munai in their lives to share to submit to us.
