Over 400 people gathered at Cranbourne Public Hall on Sunday 4 June to experience alternative healing and mediumship at the Cranbourne Holistic and Psychic Expo.
With 20 psychic mediums and numerous tarot and oracle readers, locals were surrounded by mystic energy.
“It was extremely high energy, at our expos it’s always a really nice energy,” Body n Soul Holistic Expos Owner Eden Turner said.
“A lot of people like to engulf themselves in the experience.”
The six-hour expo was choc full of spiritually connected vendors, with reiki healers, palmists, astrologers, boho clothing, crystals, books, singing bowls, candles, aura photography and more.
Mr Turner said there were many attendees who found themselves at the expo for several hours, moving between stalls, personal readings and lectures.
There were six lectures over the course of the day.
Attendees were able to dive deeper into energy healing via ‘gazing’, mediumship, chinese astrology, life beyond death, Ahn Hop Khuu and palmistry.
Psychic mediums held space for participants to gain insight about their future, or to connect with a loved one who has passed away.
Those feeling “a little bit off in themselves” were able to have their energy transformed through alternative healing practices.
“Most people that come in, come in for a reason,” Mr Turner said.
Mr Turner explained individuals in need of healing often enter the expos with slumped shoulders and a heavy feeling.
“They leave feeling light,” he said.
“They walk out and they’re walking taller.”
Many of the products available at the expos are eco-friendly and sustainable.
Mr Turner says holistic and psychic practices go “hand in hand” with being environmentally conscious.
“It’s an important part of our world,” he said.
“It’s one of those things that we are mindful of when we put on events.”
Mr Turner took over Body n Soul Holistic Expos in 2022, and attends every single event the company put on.
“I managed the expos for a year and a half in the vision of buying [the company], and in June last year I bought it,” he said.
The expos are held at a different Victorian location each week.
“You see people that have been before but it’s really exciting to see new people come in and experience them,” Mr Turner said.
The team are off to Bendigo for their next event but will be back at Cranbourne Public Hall on 8 October.
