Passport to Health & Wellness Expo Features New Englands’ Holistic Community

The Passport to Health & Wellness Expo will be held October 17, from 10am to 4pm, at The Bristol DoubleTree by Hilton. The benefit holistic fair, presented by the Holistic Community Professionals, will feature speakers on the half hour with more than 75 vendors and readers, free raffles all day and a grand prize of a Hilton overnight stay with breakfast for two, as well as a free sound and drum healing with Fred Maerkle as a closing ceremony on the patio. Fred Maerkle has his own holistic healing practice, Zentastic Wellness in Plainfield, CT, and is a Usui Holy Fire II Reiki Master, Kundalini Reiki Master, Certified Biofield Tuning practitioner, Certified VFRT therapist, and Tibetan Singing Bowl Master Healer. Fred also performs Group Sound Mediations & Healings in the tri-state area, (CT, RI, MA).  He has a great love for vibrational sound healing. It is something that "resonates" with him! (yes, pun intended!)

Attendees will have the opportunity to interact with vendors and exhibitors as they learn about available resources to help promote healthy living and overall well-being. Visitors will have the chance to gain inspiration by visiting the booths and participating in the scheduled events.

The Passport to Health & Wellness Expo is a free event, and any door proceeds will be donated to the CT Children’s Medical Center (ConnecticutChildrens.org) and Hartford Hospitals Integrative Medicine Debbie Bator Memorial Fund.
