WOODBURY â A free meditation program, âGetting to Know Your Self: Allowing Compassion through Self Awareness and Study,â will be hosted by Woodbury Yoga Center on Sunday, July 17. The program will begin at 6:45 pm.

All are welcome to join Vincent DâAlessio, a WYC teacher and board member, for discussing the paths of self-study and awareness and how a meditation practice supports and assists anyoneâs journey.

Mr DâAlessio was certified as a yoga instructor in 1994 by Sivananda and has continued his yoga training in various disciplines including Ashtanga yoga with Richard Freeman, Anusara yoga with Tod Norian, body-mind-connection with Donah Farhi, Viniyoga with Grary Kraftsow, and Restorative yoga with Judith Lassiter.Â He will soon be certified at the 500-hour level through The Yoga Alliance from his current Advanced Teacher Training at Kripalu.

He began teaching at WYC in 1995 and has also taught classes for the Southbury Seniors Program, National Multiple Sclerosis Foundation and Brookfield YMCA.

The free program is open to the public; free instruction in meditation will also be provided.

Following the presentation there will be a silent group meditation and an informal tea reception.

You assumption that there have been no offers to purchase property to protect it from development of 117 luxury cluster homes is simply wrong. And so is the developer's refusal to even come to the table.

Bits And Pieces

You do realize that the town has been trying, and failing, to develop this property for more than 20 years, becuase of the multitude of environmental harm that development would cause, wasting $250k of taxpayer money in the process, don't you? Thankfully, sometimes, realities and needs come before street names. The sewage treatment plant was a need - thats not 'commerce'. Well, the aquifer under 6 Commerce, and the Class1 trout habitat next to it are needs too. If you still are stuck on the street name getting the last word, you should probably ask the State why they designated 34 acres there as open space, when they granted it to us. And if you're still hung up on it after that, let's just change the name of the access road to #6 & #8 to something more fitting....like Conservation Drive....so you can be more at ease.

Selectmen Request Economic Development Requirement For 6 Commerce Be Droppe

Since when is Economic Development narowly defined as tax revenue? You (and the leadership of the EDC) need to broaden your collective understanding of what drives local economies if you want to be successful in helping to grown the local economy. Here's a hint: Positive Cashflow. The town is no different than any business. Top line tax revenue means nothing if it doesn't exceed the costs that come with. That's why converting the last few remaining open spaces to residential housing is a losing proposition economically. CVHAS brings 10's of thousands of people to Newtown annually, who spend money at our restaurants, watering holes and other local businesses, without a signficant increase in, or dependence on, town services. Non-profits are fantastic for local economies, be they private schools, zoo's, museums, land trusts, theaters, or yes, animal sanctuaries.
