Happy New Year everyone!

So I feel that it's important to discuss where I found the name "Arcadian" and why I chose to use it for my business name. You see, I'm a simple person that enjoys my downtime in nature or in a peaceful environment. Essentially that is how an Arcadian is described as. Let's break it down! Below is the textbook explanation:

...............................................................

Ar·ca·di·an (är-kā′dē-ən)

adjective
1. Of or relating to the ancient Greek region of Arcadia or its people, language, or culture.
2. Rustic, peaceful, and simple; pastoral: a country life of Arcadian contentment.

noun
1. A native or inhabitant of the ancient Greek region of Arcadia.
2. One who leads or prefers a simple, rural life.
3. The dialect of ancient Greek used in Arcadia.

Synonyms: calm, hushed, peaceful, placid, quiet, restful, serene, still

And now you may ask how it relates to my business? Well, I am the primary (and currently sole operator) of Arcadian Healing Arts and it describes my style. But more importantly it describes the experience that you would find while receiving care with me or my colleagues that I plan to bring on board as independent business collaborators. We are simple people who provide services in a quiet and calm environment so that our client can find stillness to reconnect with the essence of their being.

This description is exactly the ambiance that we strive to create and look forward to co-creating more experiences for our clients, potential clients and future business associates!

Thank you for reading and I hope your new year is off to a great start!

Many Thanks,
