“Mindfulness Meditation for Everyday Life”
Sunday, February 1st
4:30-6:30p ET
In Person at Krigsman Yoga, Hingham, MA
Learn the foundational principles of mindfulness meditation and how to weave presence and awareness into the rhythms of everyday life.
This session includes guided meditation, clear and simple instruction, and space for open discussion. We’ll explore how to set an intention, find a posture that works for your unique body, and build a practice routine that feels supportive rather than overwhelming.
We’ll also look at how mindfulness helps regulate the nervous system, steady the mind, and strengthen connection with ourselves and others—from both Buddhist and psychological perspectives.
Whether you’re brand new to meditation or returning after some time away, this is a welcoming space to begin (or begin again).
