2024 Seasons


For 2024, we are excited to have a variety of mindfulness growth topics to align with the seasons - winter, spring, summer and fall. Join us and be part of the Mindful Friends community.  We meet up over Zoom every Sunday at 7 a.m. Pacific Time. See below for more information on what's in store.


Origin Story: Mindful Friends Sunday Meetup

We started off as MBSR cohorts who wanted to continue to meet up with our fellow Mindful Friends. We created a safe space to continue our exploration of mindfulness practices, ideas, and more. Along the way, MBSR one-day silent meditation class friends and friends of friends have also joined our community. We look forward to connecting with you!

You are all invited! We looking forward to connecting with you at an upcoming Mindful Friends Sunday meetup. As Piero has reminded us, "Our practice is not selfish. We do not practice for ourselves alone. Our practice benefits the entire world." 



Grateful for Inaugural MF

Thank you for being part of the community. Our inaugural Mindful Friends Sunday Meetup took place on January 8, 2023. Throughout the year, we had a monthly topic with weekly sessions focused in that area. We have covered a variety of topics including openness and balance, love and self-compassion, forgiveness, mind-body connection, emotions, cultivating joy, and more. We look forward to practice, sit and grow with you in the Seasons-themed 2024.
