A free Holistic Health Fair is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. July 15 at Bradford Area Public Library.
“Holistic health considers the whole person–– the mind, body, spirit and emotions as opposed to independent parts,” library officials said. “If, for example, someone has migraines, holistic health practitioners would look for clues in the person’s diet, stress and personal problems, sleep habits and lifestyle as opposed to just giving out an aspirin. Holistic refers to everything from organic foods, herbal supplements, essential oils, natural products and massage therapy.”
Local vendors will be available to explain holistic health and products. Tops Friendly Market will bring in samples of its natural and organic products.
The Fluffy Baby Boutique will explain how parents can save money and protect the environment by using cloth diapers. The store will also display organic products for baby’s sensitive skin.
Santo Vida Natural Wellness Center will bring in essential oils, herbal supplements, natural skin products, books and information on their upcoming classes.
Donnia Anastasia Denig, owner of Sacred Spaces Holistic Center, will explain the benefits of the Ayurvedic lifestyle. Ayurvedic lifestyle refers to one of the world’s oldest holistic healing systems.
Denig will also explain the benefits of yoga and massage therapy. In addition, she will give massages.
