WellFest: Yoga mats, CBD ice teas and a lot of sweat (Irish Examiner)

Joe Wicks and Maeve Madden proved to pull the biggest crowds on the day.

To finish off the day, I threw down my yoga mat, now a bit worse for wear, and closed my eyes for Gerry Hussey’s 15-minute meditation. This one was a little bit esoteric for my tastes, so I soon headed back to the main hub-a-bub of activity where I got to absail down a climbing wall, play some ping-pong and try CBD iced tea. Speaking of food, my belly was now rumbling so I headed to the food village where there was a great selection of healthy, nutritious food – and plenty to keep the vegans happy. To catch my breath, I headed over for a sit down (that turned into a lie down) at Gerry Hussey’s talk on dissolving the ego. As we headed into the second-half of the day, the sun now firmly beating down on what seemed like thousands of attendees, Joe Wicks aka The Body Coach was hitting up the Gym+Coffee main stage. It was an interesting conversation, though the Q&A section afterwards took a while to get going.
