Mindfulness Meditation: Settling the Body, Mind, and Heart
Wild flowers
What exactly is mindfulness? In this four-week course, we will explore mindfulness as it relates to the body, the mind, and emotions. Learning to be with our direct experience is a foundational practice that can support daily life as well as other practices like yoga, dance, and journeys in altered states. This simple practice cultivates awareness and deepens our capacity to be present.

Whether you are new to meditation, want to get back to practicing, or are an experienced practitioner who would like to revisit the foundations, this course will meet you where you’re at. All are welcome! Meditating in community is palpable and supportive in developing a personal practice.

You are welcome to join at any point over the four weeks. Register for the entire course or each week.

This offering is for those interested in learning meditation or deepening your practice one-on-one. During our time together we may sit for a short meditation and then discuss anything you may want to work through or learn before doing a longer sit. The time is flexible and I’ll gauge what practice could be most supportive to you. The primary practices I offer are body scans, RAIN, lovingkindness, and self-compassion. To schedule time use link below.
