✨ What if one long weekend could change everything?
Not just inspire you, but ignite you. Not just teach you, but transform you.
After an incredible first year, the “I AM” Conference returns in 2027 and it’s bigger than before. Our first-year guests told us they wanted more, so we’ve added an extra day for 2027.
📅 Thursday 1 April, 2:30pm to Sunday 4 April, 2pm, 2027
📍 Lake Dewar Discovery Camp, Myrniong, Victoria
🌱 How “I AM” was born
For years, BM Wellness & Comic Balance (previous name) has run one-day wellness expos. Every time, our exhibitors told us the same thing: “We want more.” More time to connect. More time to learn from each other. More time to actually experience what everyone else offers, instead of packing up at the end of the day.
So we created “I AM”, a live-in wellness conference. It’s our expo, extended over four days in nature, with sleepovers, shared meals, guest speakers and time to connect.
It’s not a retreat and it’s not an expo. It’s the best of both: a gathering of practitioners, therapists, wellness product makers, lifestyle educators and curious souls who come together to learn, share and grow.
🌟 What to expect
🎤 Mind-opening presentations from guest speakers
🎶 Soul-shifting soundscapes and frequency experiences
💫 Remarkable demonstrations of human potential
🧠 Practical tools and profound truths you can take home and use
🎉 Live entertainment on Saturday night
🎁 Your own wellness hamper pack to take home
💛 You don’t need to be a practitioner to join us
“I AM” is open to everyone. At our first conference, 10 guests came simply to immerse themselves in the experience with a total of 40 Attendees. Some were exploring a future in the wellness industry. Others were experienced practitioners who took the weekend off to fill their own cup for a change.
Whether you want to learn, connect, recharge or find your next step, there’s a place for you here.
🛍️ Showcase your work, if you’d like to
If you do have something to share, every delegate is welcome to showcase their services or products, whether you:
- are a practitioner or therapist offering treatments and services
- create or sell wellness products
- teach about lifestyle, health and living well
- run workshops, demonstrations or something uniquely yours
Your stall stays set up for the full four days. Out of respect for our guest speakers, stalls pause during each presentation, so everyone can be fully present. Trading picks up again between sessions.
🌅 Your days
Each morning starts gently. Join a yoga/ guided or sound meditation session or take a nature walk across 150 acres down to the lake, where native wildlife roams freely. Then settle in for a full day of presentations, experiences and connection.
On Saturday night, we come together to celebrate with an evening of entertainment. It’s a chance to relax, laugh and enjoy the company of new friends.
🏕️ Stay your way, same price
The venue is a YMCA group camp set in untouched bushland. You can choose:
🛏️ Bunk-style rooms. Everyone gets a bottom bunk only, so there’s no climbing. Rooms sleep from 1 to 8 guests.
