With benefits that can last a lifetime:

How the course works

Throughout the program you work systematically with the challenges and demands of your everyday life. Your instructor, Dr. Yowon Choi, supports you carefully, in a safe and deeply engaging learning environment that allows participants to seek, explore and inquire.

During the course, you learn through:

• Guided mindfulness meditation practices, such as breathing meditation, open awareness and the body scan
• Mindful yoga and stretching
• Group dialogue and discussions
• Home practice with audio recordings and a workbook

You attend a group class of 2½ hours once a week for 8 weeks, plus one all-day class: 27 hours of direct instruction in total. Home practice takes 45–60 minutes a day.
