Prayers for the Planet
We are living in uncertain times, and as stewards of our planet we are responsible for creating peace, harmony, and balance among all living things. At The Present Moment, we believe that each individual has the power to help heal the planet through every thought, prayer, and action.
Through our new in-store program, Prayers for the Planet, we invite you to join our collective effort to heal the planet by submitting a written prayer, positive affirmation, or statement of intention into a carved box located in the store.
Each month, we'll deliver all written contributions to local spiritual organizations where they'll serve as a focus for prayer and meditation by volunteers. Just imagine how the positive energy generated from these thoughts, prayers, and actions can create a new consciousness and shift what’s happening in our world today!
Update: The first batch of prayers was taken to a prayer devotional organized by a member of the Baha’l faith.

Going Green
To help cut down on waste and conserve our natural resources, The Present Moment has started a brand-new "Going Green" shopping bag program. When you shop at the store, you'll have the option of purchasing a re-usable non-woven shopping bag for $.99. Each bag is proudly emblazoned with our name and logo, and can be used for all your shopping needs. Along with the bag, you'll receive a raffle ticket for a quarterly drawing for a $20 gift certificate. Every time you use a bag, you'll receive another raffle ticket. Join us in going green!
NEW! Surprise Sunday
The last Sunday of each month is now Surprise Sunday! at The Present Moment. This means we’ll be doing something special in the store on that day and, since we want to stay in the moment and not plan too far ahead, you’ll receive an email announcement a few days before which will tell you what the surprise is for the current month.
