OUR VISION
Self-Awareness • Self-Discovery • Self-Love • Self-Healing
To host a gathering that brings people together — uniting our energies and the synchronicities of diverse healing practices to support each person’s journey of self-healing.
A vibrant healing and artisan market, inspiring speakers, interactive demonstrations, and a welcoming space where all are invited to explore, connect, and grow.
Like a flower in full bloom, we honor the natural unfolding of growth, expansion, and connection — encouraging each person to step into their true essence with love and authenticity.
Soul Connection Festival is a sanctuary for those seeking to reconnect with themselves and with community, cultivating unity, empowerment, and holistic well-being.
What Makes This Gathering Unique
More than a Market…
The Soul Connection Festival is a heart-centered gathering created to support a deeper relationship with self. Through shared experiences, meaningful conversations, and accessible healing practices, we create space for reflection, growth, and authentic connection.
We lead with intention and connection.
From the opening Human Healing Spiral to every interaction throughout the day, Soul Connection Festival is designed as a shared experience — not just an event to attend, but a space to belong.
Here, healing feels approachable, conversations feel genuine, and every person is invited to explore their journey at their own pace.
Our Story
Lystra Doucette, founder and owner of Serenity Healing Crystals and Books, and her daughter Jennifer Doucette founded the Soul Connection Festival in 2018. Their first gathering was held in Mission, BC, followed by a second event in Kelowna, BC in 2019. Events were later hosted in Edmonton in 2024 and 2025, with a third Edmonton festival planned for 2026.
Together, they share a vision of raising awareness of healing techniques for the body, mind, and soul—creating pathways for individuals to deepen the relationship they have with themselves.
Through connection, education, and experience, they encourage personal growth, self-discovery, self-love and the courage to move through life’s challenges with greater awareness and self-understanding.
They are honored and excited to once again host the Soul Connection Festival in Edmonton, Alberta.
