The Body, Mind & Spirit Expo rolled into town and we showed up with open hearts and flower crowns firmly in place. Imagine a giant crystal grid sprinkled with palo santo smoke and laughter…that was the scene. It was part metaphysical marketplace, part community hug and part sensory overload in the best possible way.

In a world of constant buzz…Wi-Fi, deadlines, digital everything…there’s an ancient rhythm that still pulses beneath our feet. It doesn’t come from a screen or a supplement. It comes from the Earth itself. It’s called grounding or earthing…a practice as old as time, and as modern as the biohacker’s toolkit.

Crystals have captivated people for centuries, revered for their beauty and believed to possess mystical properties. Whether in meditation, sound and vibrational therapies, energy healing and more, other cultures have been embracing these alternative medicine practices and have hundreds of stories to prove their validity.
