People get stabbed on the streets of Miami all the time, why not pay to learn about the non violent version at Acufest 2009.

The first annual festival promises a day of "acupuncture and healthy living" that includes an organic food and wine tasting with gourmet organic food and over 40 organic wines and an offering of organic cocktails.

Is that organic enough for ya?

The food and drink should power you through the exhibits and demonstrations. A few are the community ring, energy healing, extraordinary vessels experience, meditation chamber, total performance golf, acupuncture facial rejuvenation and more.

Acufest goes down Sunday, October 4th from 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. at the Conference Center of The Americas on the grounds of the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables.

Tickets are $25 in advance, $35 at the door, and kids 12 and under get in free. Visit http://www.acufest.com for more info.
