The Art of Living Fiji is gearing up for its Say No to Drugs event from October 25th to 28th, focusing on combating substance abuse and its effects on mental health.

The program will offer mindfulness, stress management, and community support to help Fijians struggling with addiction and mental health challenges.

The event will also feature a visit from spiritual leader Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, founder of the Art of Living Foundation, whose teachings have helped millions overcome addiction.

The organization believes the initiative will bring healing and inspire positive change toward a healthier, drug-free society.

They are also working tirelessly to ensure that the message of hope, recovery, and self-empowerment resonates across the country.

The Art of Living Fiji will host a special Diwali celebration at Churchill Park in Lautoka on October 25th.

Gurudev will then meet the President Ratu Wiliame Katonivere at the State House on the 26th, followed by a cultural program at the Vodafone Arena in Suva on the 27th.

The main event will take place at the FMF Gymnasium in Suva on October 28th, with free admission.
