Join the Mindful Life Program Foundations Course, beginning January 16, 2025, at Here & Now in Gunnison, Colorado. Our 8 week Mindfulness Foundations Course is a lively and engaging 20 hour course that combines the practice of meditation and the practical application of mindfulness in daily life. Develop practical skills to live with intention and attention, and cultivate inner peace, wellness, and genuine happiness.
Attention – Developing attention skills through meditation training.
Wisdom – Understanding one’s biases, labeling, projection, and pre-judgment. Increasing emotional intelligence and learning to respond rather than react.
Values – Living a meaningful life. Developing healthy habits and responses that are in alignment with one’s personal values.
Open heart – Developing healthy relationships and connections. Cultivating skills of compassion, loving-kindness, empathic joy and equanimity.

- Three-month membership to the Mindful Life Community w/ app access
- Access to meditation library and additional resources

It is best if you can attend all sessions in person, but if you need to miss one or two sessions, Jessica can zoom you in or record the lecture part of the class and email a link to you. People sometimes get sick during a course and these options are available for those times as well. It is better to get the benefits of the course than to not sign up because you know you will be gone for one or two sessions!
The classes are held in our home/office space at 115 S. Colorado Street. We provide cushions, chairs, a bathroom, snacks, and water at each class. We have two cats, so please let us know if this is a problem for you. We can keep them out of the room and run an air purifier if needed. If you are severely allergic and would still like to take the course – contact us for options.
