(Minghui.org) Northern Europe’s largest health expo - Allt för Hälsan (Everything for Health) was held at the Stockholm International Exhibition Center from November 11-13, 2022. Anna and Janett, Falun Dafa practitioners from Gothenburg went to the expo on the weekend. They and other practitioners introduced the mind body practice, and shared the benefits with visitors from different backgrounds.
Teaching the Falun Dafa exercises
At the expo, there were exhibitors promoting green, environmentally friendly, and healthy food, as well as products and ways to improve people’s physical and mental well being.
Falun Dafa practitioners demonstrated the exercises at the information booth. People were drawn to the calm atmosphere, and were interested to find out more about Dafa cultivation. Several people learned the exercises at the booth.
Falun Dafa Teaches One to Reflect on One’s Shortcomings
Practitioners shared the benefits they experienced from cultivating in Falun Dafa with people at the expo.
Anna has been practicing Falun Dafa since April 1995. At the expo, she talked about the health improvements she experienced with attendees.
“Falun Dafa is a mind and body practice,” she said. “The exercises are just part of the cultivation system. The teachings guide one to follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance in everyday life. Practitioners strive to look at their shortcomings when there is a conflict. Nowadays, people are used to blaming others when there is a problem, which brings trouble to their minds. Everyone can try to put the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance into practice in handling relationships with others. Gradually, one will find inner peace, and one’s environment will change.”
“Excellent! I am interested!” says Maria who is an exhibitor selling health and beauty products. She was excited, and gave thumbs up after hearing Anna’s introduction to Falun Dafa. “I agree with Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Everyone should practice Falun Dafa.” She signed up for the free classes taught online.
A middle aged Swedish woman bought the main book of Falun Dafa Zhuan Falun at the expo. She said, “I was going to buy this book. I did not expect to find it at the expo. Thank you!” She had attended several online classes, and thought the practice was amazing.
Amazing Health Benefits
Janett has been practicing Falun Dafa for over two years. She was a cancer patient. She got a new lease on life, and recovered from her serious illness once she began to practice Falun Dafa. She told attendees that Falun Dafa is practiced in many countries worldwide. She said there are countless examples of people who improved their health after stepping into the Falun Dafa practice.
Someone recognized Janett and called her name. It turned out to be Janett’s good friend. The friend was surprised to learn that it was free to learn Falun Dafa. Janett told her friend the personal health benefits she gained because of the practice.
She feels fortunate to have found Falun Dafa, and is grateful to the founder, Master Li Hongzhi, for teaching people the cultivation way to return to one’s origin.
Janett also spoke to attendees from other countries including England, Spain, Belgium and other European countries. She was telling them about the ongoing persecution in China. People are angered to hear of the brutal suppression and became interested in learning Falun Gong (also called Falun Dafa). They are delighted to learn that there are local practice sites where they can go to do the exercises. They took home fliers, and said they would search online for further information.
Sharing the Benefits of the Practice with Others
Anna and Janett are delighted to have the opportunity to introduce Falun Dafa to people at the health exhibition.
Both Anna and Janett have gained a lot from practicing Falun Dafa. It is their wish to share the benefits of the practice with more people. Although talking to people for hours is quite tiring, they were glad to have come to the expo: “We spent a meaningful weekend with everyone at the exhibition.”
