Besides BEST Life Media’s body mind spirit books such as Brain Wave Vibration and Healing Chakras, murder mysteries and stories of life lessons covered many of the tables. At the end of the day, five elementary and middle school students were given awards for essays they submitted to the contest organized by the Festival.
Throughout the day, speakers gave fifteen minute talks about books and publishing. BEST Life Media asked ten-year Dahn Yoga and Brain Education instructor Genia Sullivan to speak about Brain Wave Vibration. During her talk, Genia led the audience through a brief sample of Brain Wave Vibration using drumming music from the CD, Music for Brain Wave Vibration. Some of the participants reported feeling relaxed after their two-minute trial.

This year, Gary Every was the Guest of Honor, a local individual who has greatly contributed to the growth and vitality of the Sedona/Verde Valley literary community.
