Mindfulness Meditation Classes
Our courses are an excellent way to start or re-energize your meditation practice and live a more mindful life. If you aren’t present in your life, then you aren’t experiencing your life. You are living in your mind in the future or past. Mindful living helps with stress resilience and improves joy and happiness.
Our programs are in person and are, therefore, particularly effective in helping you learn how to meditate and live mindfully. Meditating and learning with a group of people, in person, accelerates learning and helps build a supportive mindful connection with others who have a shared interest in living mindfully. Being with likeminded people is not only a pleasure, but also is known to help in your transformation into a more mindful life.
Our Introduction to Mindfulness workshop will provide you with an opportunity to sample meditations and learn about mindfulness. You will also receive some resources to start a daily meditation practice and to start living more mindfully. Some people attend this workshop before joining the MBSR class.
Our Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course is the world-famous 8-week MBSR course that has been developed and highly researched for almost 50 years at the University of Massachusetts Medical Centre (UMass), described by the creator of the program, Jon Kabat-Zinn, in his book, “Full Catastrophe Living”, and led by our teachers who are Certified by UMass. To watch a short video of the course, go to the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center (UMass). This class is transformative. Participants report they are very satisfied and happier by the end of the course.
