Sustainable Living

We are stepping out of the normal confines of what it means to live sustainably and looking at how to bring a sense of balance to the body, mind & soul.

With a focus on what matters, why it matters and how to be part of a movement that makes a change, we will host inspirational and energetic talks and debates - alongside hands-on experiential workshops that are accessible to everyone and promise to send you home with simple ways in which to lead a happier and more sustainable life.

Earth Spirit

The earth spirit collective aims to create a space that explores our connections with the earth and spirit through permaculture, organic gardening, environmental art, natural building, herb lore and sound. It is a place of contemplation, inspiration and education with a daily programme and a beautifully landscaped realm for everyone to enjoy .

Pedal Power workshop on sat at 4-5pm, also visuals by Andy Ra every evening.

The Think Tank installation by the international group Cannons & Muses (originating in Tel Aviv), converts an authentic army truck into an interactive installation asking the questions 'what is the relationship between politics and art? What should it be?'. Featuring video installations, interviews with Picnic artists and live performances, the 'Think Tank' is guaranteed food for thought.'

The Green Room

This year Body and Soul is Body and Soil... when you're in the Green Room, located next to Earth Spirit.

From growing food on your flat's balcony, to rebuilding community...The Green Room is full of ideas to take home and plant.

Hear permaculture guru Albert Bates talk about communities like you've never heard before. Learn from master herbalist Judith Hoad, chef Clodagh McKenna, policymaker Eric Lohela, farmer Suzie Cahn and others in with the crew from Cultivate, and logon with Peter O'Brien to see how Facebook and Twitter are reinventing our common vision. From the intensely practical to the deeply spiritual, here is the place to renew your connection to the land.

The Green Room at Body & Soul. Grow with it.
Friday pm, Saturday & Sunday 11am-7pm.
