CALENDAR As the weather starts to get colder, and cold and flu season is right around the corner, it might be a good time to start thinking about your health. Luckily, the Eugene Health & Wellness Expo has got you covered. The week- end-long Expo includes educational seminars led by health professionals and educators in the community. Seminars range from topics like “Total Wellness: Mind and Body/Advanced Cell Renewal” to “Optimal Nutrition For Our Companion Animals.” Local vendors will offer natural food and products to sample as well as free health and wellness screenings. The Eugene Health & Wellness Expo takes place from 10 am to 6 pm Saturday, Oct. 7, and 11 am to 5 pm Sunday, Oct. 8, at Lane Events Center’s Wheeler Pavilion (796 W. 13th Avenue).
