(Minghui.org) The spring Body-Mind-Spirit Health Expo was held on March 17-19, 2012, in Dublin, Ireland. Local Falun Gong practitioners participated in the event.

This health expo is held each spring and fall, and local Falun Gong practitioners have been invited by the organizers many times. This year, practitioners demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises and performed traditional Chinese dances. Their performances were warmly welcomed by the spectators. Many people expressed an interest in learning the exercises.

An older local lady had read Zhuan Falunmany years ago, although she had never learned the exercises. She was happy to see practitioners at the expo and wanted to learn the exercises. Since she lives far away from the local practice sites, practitioners agreed to go to her home and teach her the movements there.

An Irish gentleman had gotten a copy of Zhuan Falun and an exercise instruction DVD at the same expo last year. He had been doing the exercises every day since then. When practitioners told him that reading the Fa was very important as well, he asked for the contact information of the local Fa-study group, and said he would go there every week. He has already benefited from practicing Falun Gong, as his insomnia was healed.

Since the public had greatly enjoyed the practitioners' drum performance in previous years, the organizers invited practitioners to play the Chinese drums as the only performance at the opening and closing ceremonies this year.

Many visitors learned the exercises at the expo. Some of them said that they felt a strong energy field when doing the exercises.
