Movement, mindfulness, and community. These are the three pillars of the Nantucket Wellness Festival, which returned to the island over the weekend for its second iteration. Co-created by Holly Ruth Finigan and husband-and-wife duo and longtime yoga instructors Joann and Ted Burnham, the three-day festival opened Friday with a welcome reception and "sound experience" at Nantucket Dreamland. A full day of practitioner-led classes followed on Saturday, covering meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, and manifestation, while Sunday wrapped things up with a free wellness marketplace on Easy Street and a community gathering at Children's Beach.
