The Festival of Consciousness 2009

Written by María Elisa Murray

Presenting new solutions for a better world

What does it mean to be conscious? How conscious are we in our lives? How can we become more conscious as individuals, as a community, as a planet?

To answer these questions and more, the inaugural Festival of Consciousness will be held in San Marcos La Laguna on March 21 and 22. This two-day event will highlight a variety of activities and workshops designed to encourage new, more conscious ways of acting, thinking and being. From yoga to holistic nutrition, meditation to water filtration systems, alternative construction methods to natural medicine, the Festival of Consciousness offers something for everyone.

The special two-day price of Q200 (Q100 for children) allows unlimited access to all the workshops. Otherwise, each workshop costs Q50 (Q30 for children). There will also be many free events and cultural performances throughout the weekend.

The Festival of Consciousness welcomes and encourages all forms of participation. Please contact us as soon as possible if you have a product, service or expertise to showcase.

In keeping with the consciousness of the event, all donations and a percentage of the proceeds will go to a variety of San Marcos charities and organizations.
