(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners participated in the Spring Spiritual Bloom Fair held in Genk, Belgium, on March 23, 2026. Practitioners set up a stall to introduce Falun Dafa, also known as Falun Gong, and raised awareness of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution.

Brunella Candreva doing the second exercise
Brunella Candreva talked with the practitioners and shared how she improved her health after learning Falun Gong on her own five years ago. “I did not feel well. I then searched online and looked for a practice suitable for me. Coincidentally, a friend gave me a flyer about Falun Gong,” she recalled.
She learned the exercises on falundafa.org and started doing them every morning. “I liked to do the exercises at 5 a.m. It was quiet at home at that time,” she said with a smile. “I felt refreshed.”
She mentioned that she had also gone to borrow books about East Asian culture from the library. “I feel it is interesting and I am inspired,” she said. Brunella said she had retired and wished to join a group practice site to do the exercises with others.
Antunella was happy to buy the book Zhuan Falun.
Antunella learned Falun Gong a few years ago. She did the exercises at home and read the books. She said her life had slowed down recently and happily bought the book Zhuan Falun (the main text of Falun Dafa) at the fair.
She learned Falun Gong initially out of interest. “I practice Falun Gong every day and feel that it helps me calm down,” she said, adding that she has had better sleep and less stress.
“The principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance are very helpful in daily life and dealing with issues peacefully. My family members have also said that I have become more peaceful than before,” she said.
Katja likes the principles of Falun Dafa and would like to get more information.
Katja owns a Chinese medicine clinic. She paused at the Falun Gong stall and talked with a practitioner because she felt meditation was connected to her professional background. The practitioner told her about Falun Gong and its principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. Katja said she agreed with these values and wanted to learn more.
Signing the Petition Calling for an End to the Persecution
Claudia at the Falun Gong stall
Claudia read the display boards about the persecution of Falun Gong and talked with a practitioner in detail. She then signed a petition calling to help stop these human rights abuses in China.
“It is unreasonable for people to be imprisoned for their belief. Everyone should have freedom of expression,” she said.
Claudia said she was familiar with qigong but did not know much about Falun Gong, so the practitioner introduced the principles of Falun Gong to her. Claudia said, “Being kind to one another and maintaining integrity—these are values I embrace.”
“I like activity outdoors. If there are Falun Gong exercises outdoors, I will go and take a look,” Claudia said. The practitioner told her about group practice site. She said she would learn more about the practice.
Local practitioner Wilfried Duchamps said, “We post information about our group practice site online. Many people know about Falun Gong and have come to the exhibition site.
“Our online outreach efforts have been ongoing for a long time,” Wilfried said. “Now we hope to engage with residents face-to-face through community events—this is the main reason. We hope to enable even more people to benefit from Falun Dafa.”
