Mind Body
The first Mind Body Spirit festival was in Earls Court, Olympia exhibition centre, London in 1977. It was founded by Graham Wilson. The theme was an interest in religion, the paranormal, spirituality, natural healing and personal growth with the aim of making these ideas more accessible to everyone.
The Mind Body Spirit Festival was then presented in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sydney, Melbourne and in most major cities, often using the Mind Body Spirit name and following the successful formula of exhibitors, leading authors and authorities giving lectures and workshops, as well as a mix of new age music and performances.
After 30 years the Mind Body Spirit Festival continues as an annual event in London, currently housed at the Royal Horticultural Centre.
Exhibitors include the Hare Krishna devotees, The Aetherius Society, Christian groups, Buddhist groups, Tarot readers, vegetarians, vegans, Tai Chi groups, Anthroposophical Society, Reiki and many others.
