What we’re about
The Unified Mindfulness (UM) system offers tailor-made meditation techniques for practice in the midst of daily life to build Concentration, Clarity, and Equanimity (CC&E aka mindfulness). The techniques taught in the class can help access restful, energizing, and positive mental states for improved clarity and well-being. The program comprises introduction to each meditation technique, guided meditations, and Q&As.
Weekly 1-hour classes start again on April 28, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. in person at Gaithersburg Library (18330 Montgomery Village Ave, Gaithersburg, MD 20879). Attendance is free, and drop-ins are welcome.
