| Rate Sheet in PDF Format | Quarterly Newsletter For Advertisers | Pay Your Bill Online The Door Opener provides Connecticut's holistic health, spiritual,and metaphysical communities with an opportunity for listing events, classes, services, and products at minimum cost. We consider our listers, advertisers, and distributors to be partners with us in this venture and encourage the idea of an extended community. Included under this umbrella are the exploration of alternatives in health care, ways of living, and philosophy; the acceptance and wise use of responsibility; and the recognition that all people and the planet share a common bond and destiny. We support a change in our value system to a more holistic and ecological world view. Our magazine focuses on people with an interest in self improvement and exploring alternatives, as well as integrative and complementary health care modalities. It is sold through health food, metaphysical or "new age" book and gift shops, and all Borders, Barnes and Noble, and WaldenBook locations, Whole Foods locations as well as by subscription. Unlike most other publications of this nature, our readers share the cost of the magazine by purchasing it. This keeps the cost low for advertisers and ensures that each copy printed is used. First published in 1986, we are in our twenty-second year of publication distributing about 2,300 copies. Advertisers also receive a quarterly newsletter (see top of this page for a PDF version) as we begin each issue with information on any changes, incentives, reminders of due dates, and business tips from the experts. We invite you to join us in this venture by becoming a distributor or advertiser.
