The Mindfulness Institute will host a three-session Introduction to Mindfulness and Meditation course from 7 to 8:30 p.m., May 9, 16 and 23, at the Collier Public Library South Regional location, in Naples. The course supports the practice of mindfulness, helping attendees develop the skills and attention required to be fully present to life. It is intended for those new to mindfulness and meditation, as well as individuals that want to review the basics and establish a more consistent daily mindfulness and meditation practice.

Participants will learn the basics of mindful meditation, including sitting meditation, walking meditation and deep body relaxation. They will also systematically explore mindfulness of breathing, the body and physical sensations; and establish and maintain a daily meditation and mindfulness practice to help replace feelings of regret, stress and confusion with clarity, peace, joy and optimism.

Cost: $40 for all three classes, $15 reduced rate (sliding scale). Location: 8065 Lely Cultural Pkwy. For more information or to register, email [email protected] or visit FloridaMindfulness.org/mindfulnessinstitute.
