We are so excited to be participating in the second year of The Wellness Market, Toronto’s newest well-being and natural therapies event. Created to provide an engaging space where like-minded health-conscious individuals can come together and connect, people who attend will enjoy amazing panels, workshops and activations in the wellness space.

Founded by Holistic Health and Reiki practitioner Natalie Kehren and Naturopathic Doctor Erica Arcuri in 2017, The Wellness Market was created to bring like-minded friends and colleagues together to experience an afternoon exploring wellness in a space that celebrates community, self-love, and healthy well-being.

The best part? It’s totally accessible with $5 general admission tickets, giving you access to the market, the expert panel and the meditation station.  The event happens THIS SUNDAY October 21st at Artscape Wychwood Barns.

Here’s what we’re excited for and what to expect:

Meditation Station Hosted by Hoame
Newly opened, Toronto’s next-level meditation studio, Hoame, will be hosting the Meditation Station. As Toronto’s most talked about new business in the wellness space, it’s a great time to connect with their instructors and learn more about their offering, while experiencing a grounding, soothing meditation experience.

Toronto is about to be home to Hoame, an upscale meditation space, spanning over 5000 square feet in the heart of downtown at 430 Adelaide Street West. Opening on September 20th at Hoame will be Toronto’s (and potentially North America’s) largest hub for enhanced mind and body offerings, including a Himalayan rock salt cave, infrared sauna, light and dark meditation rooms and a series of experiential wellness workshops, curated retail and more.

Founded by therapists Stephanie Kersta MSc, RP and Carolyn Plater-Zyberk MSW, RSW, are taking their clinical expertise to the mainstream by demonstrating that the benefits of meditation and mindfulness are not just for celebrities and business executives.

“Meditation is all about returning Hoame to yourself,” states Stephanie Kersta, co-founder. “Every aspect of Hoame is designed to reflect that; from our Living Room area with a fireplace where we’ll be hosting fireside chats to the suspended armchairs where people can hang out in between sessions. We also offer a charcoal-based lemonade and adaptogens on tap and will be diffusing a custom Hoame-branded essential oil blend in-studio to help cultivate mindfulness”.

We are so excited to see that meditation is becoming accessible to a more mainstream audience! Stay tuned for more images and updates on Hoame!
