______
As an older adult (age 85) with a background in psychology, I had dabbled for years in meditation. When Janaki was presented to me as an excellent meditation teacher, I attended her classes and am delighted to say that I am experiencing a deeper level of calm emanating from my meditation. Janaki's ability to simplify "the very complex,” is working for me and I am appreciative of the gift of finally "getting it.” Thank you for transferring to me something that words are frequently unable to convey. I am enjoying a welcome feeling of comfort during a year of innumerable personal challenges. Thank you.
—Paula Flynn, Psy.D.
