Jean Vitrano, Mindfulness Facilitator & Teacher

Why meditate? When we become more curious and less judgmental about ourselves and about others because we have a greater awareness of what goes on in ourselves and in the world around us. Pausing and being still allows us to see more clearly and compassion for ourselves and for others comes more readily.

For five weeks, I will give the basic instructions, lead you in a guided practice. We’ll have time for observations and questions and then we will practice again.

We are often our biggest critics. Learning to respond to our self-critic with kindness is something we can strengthen. Join me and explore the ways you can be a friend to yourself. In this workshop, we will build the tools we can use to take care of ourselves with mindfulness and loving-kindness.

Enjoy a restful morning of mindfulness and give yourself a mini-retreat to unplug and come into silence and inner stillness. The morning will largely be in silence as we practice guided, silent, and walking meditation. We'll have a period of rest in a guided body relaxation scan. There will be a Q&A period and time to share about your practice where we will use mindful listening and speaking. The day is an opportunity to deepen our practices, be together as a community, and rest in the present moment.

In these sessions, you can bring a specific question, theme, or issue to the table to explore. My process of facilitating and asking questions will assist you in finding your own awareness and insight. A typical session would start with a few minutes of meditation to allow us to arrive, drop into our bodies, and get grounded in the moment. With compassion we can tend to what arises. We can do one time sessions or a series of sessions 3 for $310.
