Salon du Bien-Être

On April 25th and 26th, the town of Rivedoux-Plage will host its Wellness Fair, an event that has become a must for anyone interested in healthy living, new discoveries, and natural solutions. This year's fair will showcase innovative sectors, committed producers, and a wealth of local crafts, all dedicated to promoting harmony of body and mind. Among the highlights, hemp producers will be prominently featured. A true plant of the future, hemp will be presented in all its diversity, particularly in its edible forms: seeds, hulled seeds, flour, and oil, all renowned for their nutritional qualities. Visitors will also be able to discover its applications in the building sector, with hemp wool, an eco-friendly insulating material, and hemp hurds, prized for their thermal performance and low environmental impact. The fair will also highlight local products with the presence of winemakers from the Uniré cooperative. They will be offering their AZURE range of organic wines—white, rosé, and red—as well as their new product this year: grape juice and sparkling grape juice, a natural, alcohol-free, and convivial alternative. On the gourmet side, an artisan will be on hand to showcase their homemade spreads and chocolates, combining authenticity and pleasure. Essential oils will also be represented by doTERRA, who will share their expertise in aromatherapy and the benefits of natural extracts. Craftsmanship will also be highlighted with the presence of jewelry designers with diverse inspirations, as well as a cutler-blacksmith who will demonstrate traditional skills blending precision, passion, and authenticity. At the heart of the fair, numerous wellness practitioners will offer guidance and introductory sessions: hypnosis, regressive hypnosis, massage, astrology, equine-assisted coaching, forest bathing, human design, magnetic field work, and innovative water-based solutions. A unique opportunity to discover complementary approaches to better understand yourself, find your center, and improve your daily life. This edition will also welcome a shamanic drum maker whose artistic and spiritual approach is deeply rooted in the connection to all living things. “The shamanic drum emerged as a natural extension of my art, guided by plants and the living world. Each drum, created with natural elements (sun, water, vegetation) and enhanced with cyanotype printing, is a unique piece, imbued with energy and meaning. More than an object, it becomes a true soul companion, born from an initiatory journey and a co-creation with the person who receives it.” A singular encounter between craftsmanship, nature, and personal expression. Conferences, workshops, interactive sessions, and discussions will fill these two days in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Practical information: Dates: Saturday, April 25 and Sunday, April 26 Location: Rivedoux-Plage, community hall Admission: Free A must-attend event for those who wish to explore new paths to well-being, responsible consumption, and inner balance.
