Hidden Treasure in Lakewood

There's a new store in town and it caters to your health, happiness, peace, and prosperity. I have stumbled upon a great treasure in Lakewood, Radiance Organics opened its doors at the end of last year with a committment to improving the quality of life in Lakewood. Offering a wide range of products and services that are good for you, good for the environment, and good for the community. It's owner, Tom Murach, said, "I wanted to start a retail business that would make a significant impact on the quality of life. There are too many things in our environment that damage our health and well-being without us even being aware. Radiance Organics promotes healthy products and a healthy lifestyle through the great things we sell and the educational courses we offer."

One of the main educational courses offered is the Transcendental Meditation program, the most researched meditation technique available - over 600 studies in peer reviewed, refereed journals attest to the efficacy of this natural technique. "TM is endorsed by doctors, psychologists, educators, clergy, and professionals from all walks of life. The National Institutes of Health has awarded more than 25 million dollars for studies on the TM technique and how it improves our health," said Tom. Free lectures are offered every Wednesday evening at 7:30 PM.

There are also seminars available on organic foods, GMO's, free radicals, toxins in our water, organic cosmetics, Maharishi Ayurveda, Vedic Architecture, and ORMUS minerals. Not just a store, but a friendly place to come and learn about what's good for you and the environment. There is always tea brewing to sip with organic cookies. Come in to relax and enjoy our warmth and hospitality. From the original copper ceilings, to the friendly atmosphere you will always find that your concerns are what Radiance Organics cares about most.

Aside from the Transcendental Meditation program and courses in Yoga, Diet and Nutrition, Self-Pulse Diagnosis, and Prevention, you will find a unique assortment of hard to find products including organic nuts and candies, organic teas, candles and incense, books and tapes, greeting cards including seed cards, (after reading you plant them and they grow into beautiful flowers), pashmina shawls and silk scarves, organic clothing, organic baby clothing, a complete line of Ayurvedic herbal supplements, Vedic organic honey, coffee substitutes, a complete line of organic skincare and men's products, organic massage oils, handmade jewelry, polish pottery, water purifiers, and other gems that await you.
