Your "scary/amazing" experience does not seem at all out of place in such a gathering.
>>I always find some person who has had some kind of spiritual or psyhcological experience which either scares me or amazes me<<
Let's face it, if your Christian stand had been Roman Catholic, you would have been able to tell the story of how one woman cured another of cancer, fifty years after having died. Not satisfied with that, she repeated the feat, on a different woman, some forty years later.
Spooky, eh?
And puts the Lauren story into perspective. Unless of course the Laurens' patient got up and walked - your brief summary didn't tell us.
So, now you have our attention, what is the point that you are leading up to?
It can't be just another "there are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy". That would be silly - we all know that already.
But thanks for the giggle, imagining you among all those earnest hippies.
Wikipedia provides a credible list:
"Exhibitors include the Hare Krishna devotees, the Aetherius Society, Christian groups, Buddhist groups, Astrologers, Tarot readers, vegetarians, vegans, Tai Chi groups, the Anthroposophical Society, Reiki and many other New Age groups."
That's scintillating company, right there.
Did you wear a suit and tie for the event?. C'mon, you can tell us...
I expect these people were there too.

"The Centre for mind, body & spirit features a wide variety of crystals, incense, essential oils, organic skin and hair products, candles, cards, jewellery and giftware."
As I have said on many occasions, I am very comfortable with the fact that there is a large group of human beings for whom simply "being here" is insufficiently interesting, and who require that little extra bit of personal reassurance to make sense of their lives.
Bless.
But it's also the case that they all seem to come with a demand that you buy some form of "giftware".
Odd.
