As we enter the 21st Century, expos, gatherings and other special events have become an innovative means of introducing the public to natural lifestyles, and new options for personal growth and planetary healing.

The opportunities are endless and exciting! There are gardening expos, sports and fitness expos, psychic fairs, yoga symposiums, eco-expos, natural food expos, herbal symposiums, cultural events, natural childbirth expos and many more. Typically, events last 1-3 days, but some like the incredible Rainbow Gathering offer a full week of "getting back-to-the-land" (attended yearly by over 10,000 people! - Be sure to bring your tent and plenty of food for people to share).

Many of our favorite events are listed in our annual Calendar of Events, such as the Whole Life Expo & the New Life Expo. These Body-Mind-Spirit expos are unique because for as little as $10/day you can hear the most respected authorities speak on recent developments in the health fields, or learn about & purchase the latest advancements in the realm of natural healing. Wholesome food, musical entertainment, and free/inexpensive sessions with local bodywork practitioners and energy healers also attract many people to these fun & educational events.

The gatherings listed in this chapter are truly carnivals for the body-mind-spirit where you may meet that special someone and mingle with like-minded folk.
