Susan L. Taylor will be giving a keynote speech to start off the 2nd Annual Health and Wellness Expo, Transforming the Temple: The Bliss of Now! on Saturday, April 26th, 2014 at 12pm.
CCCADI has partnered with Entering the Holy of Holies, An Institute of Learning and Healing, Inc. and the joint practice of Back to the Middle and New York Sports Acupuncture, to produce a day dedicated to body, mind, spirit and heart healing – featuring vendors, workshops, storytelling, live demos, and performances.
With an emphasis on heart and mental health, this highly anticipated event is geared for pleasure and possibilities. Visitors can expect dance and art therapy classes, fresh food, diabetes and blood pressure screenings, nutritionists, reflexologists, a detox clinic, divination systems, meditation, and so much more.
“The health of our families is critical to the wellbeing and productivity of our children and our community,” says Dr. Marta Moreno-Vega, the president and founder of CCCADI. “Learning about health contributes to our ability to learn and engage actively in our immediate surroundings.”
