North Devon's inaugural Mind, Body & Soul Festival will take place at The BIG Sheep
family attraction in Bideford on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th April. With all the
pressures of modern life it's so easy to feel stressed.... but what exactly is
stress? Stress is a modern, widely used buzzword that's used to describe the
pressure of modern day, leaving people unable to cope. This new festival will be
like no other and promises to leave visitors feeling relaxed, pampered and give them
all the tools they will need to lead happier and more fulfilled lives
We may live in a world that has more appliances and technology to make for a more
comfortable life than previous generations - but does that mean we have better and
more fulfilling lifestyles? In today's busy world where more of us have to work in
demanding jobs as well as raising a family we have very little time left over for
ourselves and when we do find time, we feel guilty about enjoying some 'me' time and
this undoubtedly plays havoc with our well-being. The Mind, Body & Soul Festival
which is sponsored by 'My Town: Bideford' will give visitors an opportunity to come
along to find out ways in which to nourish their mind, body and soul.
There is already a wealth of exhibitors and activities planned for the event
including yoga, tai chi, allergy testing, beauty treatments, relationship and
personal life coaching, healing, pilates, holistic therapies, massage, physics,
prayer and much more.
Diana Brook, creator of the hugely popular 'The Mind, Body and Soul Workout Guide'
and guest speaker at the festival believes that looking and feeling great on the
outside starts with promoting health on the inside and says, "Our thoughts,
emotions, nutrition, work, and family life all influence our wellbeing. By
increasing awareness of the mind, body, and soul, we can gain a fresh perspective on
how to care of our health and begin healing."
Diana who is a natural health & healing practitioner based in South Wales will
inspire visitors with her talk on Coloured Light Therapy. Diana's aim will be to
encourage individuals to become aware of the healing energies of light to promote
physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing'
Rick Turner, director of the BIG Sheep and brains behind the Festival, is confident
this inaugural festival will prove to be a huge success and lead to the development
of an annual festival and said, 'We want our visitors to enjoy the wide range of
experiences at our Mind Body & Soul Event and, at the same time, feel confident that
they are in good hands. All our exhibitors have been recommended to us so we are
confident we have created a safe, honest and ethical environment that allows
visitors to come along secure in the knowledge that they will be treated with
respect, that they can trust the advice or service they require and that they will
enjoy their day. As well as having an opportunity to talk to therapists there will
be a series of taster sessions, workshops and talks for visitors to enjoy.' Rick
has been surprised by the level of interest that the event has generated to date and
adds. 'Taking care of our physical and spiritual needs is an important element in
caring for our whole selves and I'm sure those attending the Festival will be able
to enjoy happier and more fulfilled lives.
