DESCRIPTION

The goal of this two-week program is to provide participants the knowledge and skills necessary to apply mindfulness meditation principles and practices in their own lives and in the live of those around them.

Each class will last two hours and if necessary there will be a brief break at half time.

The classes will start with introductions and welcoming of students. Then the Director will highlight the topic for that day, followed by the recitation of the traditional mantra from the Upanishads and a short meditation.
