The Mind Body Spirit Expo

The Mind Body Spirit Expo celebrates its 15th year as the largest natural health and human potential expo of its type on the East Coast. It will be held at the New Jersey Convention Center in Edison on April 13-15. 

There will be a special meet-and-greet reception on April 14 in honor of medium/spiritual teacher Sylvia Browne who is celebrating 50 years as a professional psychic. Browne is touring the United States for this occasion and the Mind Body Spirit Expo is one of her stops. Don Miguel Ruiz, one of the great icons of the human potential movement, is celebrating the 15th year of the publication of his impacting worldwide bestseller, The Four Agreements. The 15th anniversary of the Mind Body Spirit Expo and the 15th anniversary of The Four Agreements creates an interesting synergy, with the expo hosting Don Miguel Ruiz for a reception and lecture on Sunday, April 15.

The expo is also honored to host legendary human rights and natural food activist Dick Gregory. Other special guest speakers include John Major Jenkins, the premier researcher of 2012 and the Maya, who will talk about the important Lord Jaguar inscriptions and what 2012 really means in the Mayan calendar, and Charles Virtue, who is continuing the fine and inspiring work of his mother, Doreen Virtue.

The Mind Body Spirit Expo has become known for hosting top-name special guest speakers. Through its 15 years, icons such as Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, James Van Praagh, Dan Millman, Neale Donald Walsch, Doreen Virtue, and Michael Bernard Beckwith have shared their experiences and wisdom with attendees.

Constantly expanding in scope and ideas, the expo also reflects the most contemporary concerns and interests, like the health worries associated with cell phone, wifi, and mobile device usage to what the world can anticipate on December 21, 2012. If it’s at the forefront of the mind/body/spirit paradigm, it will be at the Mind Body Spirit Expo, along with presentations of more traditional, alternative modalities that have proven successful through the years.

The show’s exhibitors have a variety of booths, presenting everything from astral photography to jewelry. Psychics and body workers also provide their services to attendees. Each expo has a bookstore, where attendees can get books at discount prices.
