Guided Meditation is a beginner-friendly meditation experience offered in a supportive, trauma-sensitive environment.
Whether you are completely new to meditation or looking to deepen an existing practice, the class introduces accessible techniques for attention, breath awareness, relaxation, mindfulness, and self-observation.
The goal is not to force the mind to become quiet. Instead, participants practice noticing thoughts, sensations, and distractions and gently returning attention to the present moment.
Use the breath as a simple anchor for attention, awareness, and presence.
Practice noticing thoughts, sensations, and experiences with curiosity and less judgment.
Explore guided techniques that create space to slow down, settle, and reset.
Practice noticing when attention wanders and gently returning to a chosen point of focus.
Each session combines guided practice, education, and time to reflect on what you are learning.
About 5 minutes of gentle movement and stretching to help prepare the body and attention.
About 20–25 minutes of guided meditation, typically seated in a chair or on the floor.
About 10–15 minutes for questions, discussion, reflection, and problem-solving.
Guided Meditation is designed to help you build skills that can extend beyond the class itself.
Sessions may include educational handouts, practical tips, and strategies for developing a realistic home meditation practice and navigating common challenges.
Regular participation can help build familiarity and confidence, but you are welcome to attend as your schedule allows.
No previous meditation experience is required.
Learn the basics with clear guidance and plenty of space for questions.
Reconnect with meditation after time away or add structure to an existing practice.
Practice working with distraction rather than expecting your thoughts to disappear.
Develop practical tools for awareness, reflection, and a more intentional pause in daily life.
Guided Meditation is offered as a secular wellness practice. No religious belief, spiritual background, or prior meditation experience is required.
The class is taught with a trauma-sensitive approach that emphasizes choice, personal agency, and different ways to participate.
Participants may adjust their position, keep their eyes open, take a break, or choose not to participate in a particular practice if that better supports their comfort.
