Do the words "Healthy Living" drum up images of nutrition and dieting trends? Or perhaps well-intentioned-but-unfruitful New Year’s resolutions? Maybe it isn’t an image; maybe it’s a feeling. A vague sense of guilt that weighs heavily on the chest as goal after goal goes unfulfilled.

I know it was for me.

Healthy living became some intangible thing that felt completely out-of-reach, much less attainable. If we’re honest with ourselves, sometimes healthy living feels more like a soy-free, gluten-friendly, dairy-free, vegan, keto, CBD nightmare than anything else. So, we don’t even try. And that is totally understandable in a world that is overly-saturated with the newest, hottest, you-won’t-be-healthy-without-it trends.

So, whether it’s deciphering the difference between shelf-stable and refrigerated probiotics, or decoding the many (and often confusing) strengths of CBD oil, the Healthy Living Department is ready to help you. Their knowledge is vast, and their passion runs deep. (And speaking strictly from personal experience, they haven’t steered me wrong yet.)

If you’re on the journey toward better health, make DLM’s Healthy Living Department a stop along the way… I really don’t think you’ll regret it.

But fear not, friends.

The words “healthy living” don’t intimidate us here at Dorothy Lane Market. On the contrary, we are empowered by them. This demystification comes down to a crew of managers and associates that work tirelessly to make the road to healthier living something exciting and, more importantly, easily understood. They don’t just sell vitamins and protein bars. They attend seminars and trainings; they strive to procure products from reputable and reliable sources; they endeavor to build a bridge to the overwhelming world of health that is accessible to everyone.

Personally, Joanna at our Springboro location always blows me away with her breadth of knowledge. She makes selecting probiotics, multivitamins, hair supplements, etc. feel like an informed decision that I can handle, rather than an overwhelming one that I’d prefer to avoid. Even before I worked with her, Joanna was always ready to equip me with the information I needed to make good decisions about my health.

And that empowering energy is a company-wide point-of-pride. Joy and Kathy (Washington Square and Oakwood) and their associates share a similar philosophy. When you ask them a question, they want you to walk away feeling informed and confident, not intimidated. That personalized approach is an integral part of the DLM Difference, and it stems from a love for our customers that is unsurpassed.
