Meditation, Mindfulness & Buddhism Study Program
We offer a progressive, practical, and non-dogmatic exploration of meditation, mindfulness, and Buddhist philosophy. Open to all, regardless of background, beliefs, or prior experience.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Our study program is structured into six modules, each focusing on different aspects of practice. Each courses can be taken independently, though we recommend pairing them with one or more weekly guided meditation sessions to deepen learning and integration. Our intention is to help develop an integrated, progressive mental training at every level of experience, using tools from Mindfulness and Buddhism that can be incorporated into everyday life.
