Here’s what we’ve learned over all the years we’ve been teaching meditation:

• The number one reason people struggle to meditate? They don’t think they’re doing it right.
• The number one reason people don’t meditate? They don’t have the time.

We get it. We’ve been there too. So we teach this class in a way that

• Gives you the confidence to know you’re meditating correctly.
• Shows you how you can be a meditator, even if you think you don’t have the time.

We teach by doing. You will learn step by step, incrementally over 6 weeks, the basics of meditation that are common to all meditation traditions. Along the way you will be introduced to four main types of meditation: Mindfulness, Breath, Guided Visualization, and Mantra. By the end of the series, you will know a meditation routine that fits best with your lifestyle and personality.
