To Register

Prior to each 8-week session, a free hour and a half orientation workshop is offered.  Attendance at this workshop is not required but is strongly encouraged.  The orientation is an opportunity to meet the facilitators, ask questions, and get a taste of mindfulness practice in a group setting.  In order to join a class, a brief phone interview is required.  This allows you to have a confidential conversation with a facilitator to find out more about how mindfulness can best meet your individual needs.  You may call either facilitator to schedule a time to talk.

To sign up for the orientation session, to set up a phone interview, or for questions or more information, please contact one of the facilitators:
