SUMMARY:Beginner’s Guide to Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Start Meditating and Transform Your Life\nSession Options:\n1:30 – 4:30 pm Saturday, July 11, 2026, or\n1:30 – 4:30 pm Saturday, October 24, 2026\nVenue: 255 H St, Fremont, CA 94536\nMost of us are overstimulated and overscheduled, which leads to mental, emotional, and physical stress. Stress accumulates as a direct result of our out-of-balance lifestyle. Research shows that more than 80% of all doctor visits are due to stress-related complaints, such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic pain, allergies, inability to focus, fatigue, and high-blood pressure. Does this sound familiar? If so, this is the class for you. If you want to improve the quality of your life, have harmonious relationships with people around you and establish a calming and peaceful life, this class is for you too! Just about anyone can benefit from meditation practice, regardless of age, spiritual tradition or physique.\nBeginner’s Guide to Meditation covers the fundamentals of sitting meditation with practice sessions, including proper bodily posture (while sitting on the cushion or chair), relaxation, and basic methods of meditation. We will discuss the proper environment, equipment, self-massage and important concepts related to the process of meditation. In addition, you will learn to observe your thoughts and emotions and apply the concepts/methods of meditation to your daily life. Your mental blocks, resistances, struggles and hang-ups will be addressed by meditation. This is a practical guide to self-discovery and fulfillment.\nPlease wear comfortable and loose clothing to keep your body warm and relaxed.\nThis event is free. Suggested donation: $25.00.\nWe warmly invite you to register for one of the two sessions. Workshop group size is limited to ensure personal attention to individual participants. To conserve and reduce waste, please bring your own water bottle. Thank you!\nRegister for July 11- DDMBASF Center/Fremont ( https://www.ddmbasf.net/allevents/RegistrationHome.asp?eventID=1014&lang=en )\nRegister for October 24- DDMBASF Center/Fremont ( https://www.ddmbasf.net/allevents/RegistrationHome.asp?eventID=1015&lang=en )\n
