From September 19 to 21, 2025, Saint-Martin will host the first edition of Unis'Vers, the festival of living connection. Created by the Mycélium association, this event aims to explore well-being through the body, mind, and nature.
Access to the site is free, with stands from practitioners, a craft market, and a refreshment stand. Participation in workshops and activities requires a pass, with the possibility of registering on-site, subject to availability.
To better understand the spirit of this festival and what it offers, several practitioners present at the event agreed to answer my questions.
A festival to reconnect with life
Unis'Vers, the festival of living connection, organized by the Mycélium association, offers three days to take care of oneself, discover wellness practices and reconnect with nature.
In a world where virtual connections are multiplying, but where we sometimes lose touch with what truly matters, this festival aims to offer a genuine respite. "Our well-being will depend on the connections we maintain with the living world, within ourselves and around us," explain the organizers.
Why the “living link”?
The choice of this theme is not insignificant. Between hectic lifestyles, disconnection from nature, and environmental concerns, many feel the need to reconnect. The organizers remind us that "there is no separation between our inner world and the outer world." Taking care of oneself is also a way to contribute to a more harmonious world.
The festival is part of the ecopsychology approach, which explores the links between the state of the planet and our inner states.
Experiencing the connection to living things
Unis'Vers offers a variety of approaches to experiencing the connection with living things:
Through the body: yoga, dance, forest walks, vibrational concerts
Through the mind: meditations, energy and spiritual healing, conferences
Through creativity: shows, craft market, music, crafts
Each participant will have the opportunity to experience, feel, and discover, and perhaps be touched in their heart or soul. The organizers hope that everyone will leave "awake, with a desire to forge even stronger connections between themselves, nature, and others."
Passionate speakers
The program was conceived as a mosaic of talents. The organizers invited practitioners from their network, as well as artists and creators discovered at other events. This team of about ten people is entirely dedicated to the living world.
“We will make our passions available,” they explain. Music to feel the energy, conferences to reflect, workshops to experiment, and shows to share: each moment has been designed to nurture the connection between body, heart, and mind.
The highlights not to be missed
Friday, September 19 – Opening Night: ArYan's vibrational concert, blending electric sounds and shamanic chants for an inner journey
Saturday 20 September: various workshops, conferences, activities and an evening show
Sunday 21 September: Free access to a craft market, wellness workshops and discoveries
The program also highlights the presence of Shellopan, an Alsatian collective specializing in the manufacture of handpans, to discover this instrument with unique sounds and exchange with its craftsmen-creators.
A collective adventure
This festival is the culmination of several months of preparation. Born within the Mycélium association, already known for its “Mycélium Days” in Dieffenbach-au-Val, the project gained momentum thanks to a call for participation. A motivated team has formed and has been meeting since February to plan the festival: “Laughter, disagreements, reflections, decisions… and always the desire to create a warm and vibrant event.”
