Avon Library Offers Serenity Via Virtual Program Thursday

AVON, CT — A lot of us could use some inner peace these days, and a special program courtesy of the Avon Free Public Library later this week can help.

That's because the library is presenting a virtual event called "Meditation for Balance and Inner Contentment" on Thursday, Feb. 6, at 7 p.m.

"People all over the world are tuning into meditation to help them lead a more peaceful and healthy lifestyle," wrote the library in an announcement.

"Scientific studies have proven that the practice of meditation provides a deep relaxation to the body that helps reduce stress and tension."

Hosting the free program will be Bruce Faithwick, who is a business consultant in the software industry and, also, a meditation expert.

"He currently provides workshops and training to groups in the California area where he connects meditation and self-development to important aspects of our lives," wrote the library.

Faithwick has been meditating for over 40 years.
