Mindfulness and studies confirming its benefits are everywhere these days. But making it a foundation for good living requires an understanding of the practice - its roots, purpose, and methods.
In my teaching I emphasize supporting students in establishing a practice that is steady and ongoing, which can in turn transform our way of being, and serve as a foundation for us to do good and necessary work in the world.

(This workshop will also benefit any dedicated yoga asana practitioner.) In addition to didactic teaching, guided meditation, and Q&A, each class will include a yoga/mindfulness practice to demonstrate techniques for layering body-based and mindfulness methods.
