Slow Down And Enjoy Life

WOODBURY — Janaki Pierson, a co-founder and the executive director of Woodbury Yoga Center, will offer a free meditation program on Sunday, April 24. Ms Pierson will present “Is It Time to Slow Down, Relax, and Enjoy Life,” in which she will discuss how everyday demands from professional and personal lives can be trivial once one learns how to release those demands.

The program will begin at 6:45 pm. It will be followed by a group meditation session (free instruction will be offered) and an informal tea reception.

“This program is appropriate for those who have never meditated to come learn, as well as people who have some meditation experience, or those who regularly meditate to gain a fresh insight and/or deepen their practice,” said Ms Pierson, who added, “Enhanced decision making ability and efficiency resulting from mediation empowers the individual to make healthy choices and balance the responsibilities of life.”

Janaki Pierson has been teaching meditation for over 20 years and has been established in her own daily practice for 29 years. She teaches extensively throughout New England in medical, educational, corporate and community settings.
