Join us in community to practice mindfulness meditation, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal, largely guided, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters our ability to handle stress, poor mood, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment, non-judgemental awareness – noticing where your focus and attention is and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way. Mindfulness meditation practice opens the possibility to pause, gain perspective, discern what is actually present and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing, complex, and challenging world, mindfulness can provide grounding and a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human. As one form of contemplative practice, mindfulness meditation can support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action in the world.  

Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you.
