Class schedule is updated every two weeks.
This is a good choice for someone who wants a webinar without much community or teacher interaction. You can work at your own pace for the duration of the 6-week course. The online course consists of recordings from six previously live classes. Participants will have access to audio materials as well as an "Ask the Mindfulness Teacher" option to have any questions related to the course or your practice answered. Class sessions begin every Monday. You must register by Sunday at 11:59 pm, PST to begin the following Monday. Any registrations after, will begin the next Monday. If Monday falls on a holiday, you will be sent class details on the following business day.
These live online classes are held in a small community format led by senior MARC teachers as well as affiliate MARC teachers you’ve come to know and love. This is a good choice for those who want to go through MAPs with a group of others, live teacher support, and is date/time specific. Class start dates and times vary, choose the times that work best for you!
The MAPs I course is an excellent introduction to mindfulness for beginners. MAPs I provides insight into the basics of mindfulness, how to develop a mindfulness meditation practice, and how mindfulness can be applied in daily life. It is also appropriate for experienced practitioners who wish to revitalize their practice.
MAPs I- for Daily Living is an excellent introduction to mindfulness for clinicians, who are welcome to take it for credit.

Many of us struggle with anxiety, depression and anger. These natural human emotions can be a source of suffering that can negatively impact quality of life. Mindfulness has been shown to promote more states of well being and happiness and has been incorporated into a variety of clinical treatments for mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. But whether or not you have a mental health concern or simply struggle with the challenges of 21st century living and the anxiety, stress, and frustration of life, this class can support you in finding more ease, balance, and happiness.
In the class we will work weekly with each emotion, exploring how to bring mindfulness to it and include other approaches to working with it. We will also learn practices that antidote difficult emotions such as equanimity or balance, compassion, and loving kindness.
This class may be particularly relevant for mental health clinicians, but is open to anyone.
Pre-requisite: Attendance in any introductory MAPs I series or equivalent mindfulness introductory class with permission from our instructor. If you have not taken a MAPs I class at MARC, please email us a brief description of your equivalent experience to [email protected] before class start date.

In this follow up class to MAPs I, we will learn how to cultivate loving kindness, compassion, equanimity, joy, gratitude, and forgiveness.

Judgments of a reactive and compulsive nature are very strong in most of our lives. They can distort our perceptions, make relationships with others difficult, and undermine our work. In this six-week course, we will examine what judgments are and how to work skillfully with them. We will use mindfulness, lovingkindness, compassion, and practices to help us identify and transform the limiting beliefs that drive many of our more chronic self-judgments and judgments of others. These tools help us to preserve the discernment often found in judgments, while working through the destructive aspects of judgments. While most of the course will involve more “inner” practices, we will also give some attention to how to work with and transform judgments that appear in our interactions and relationships.
Pre-requisite: This will be a second-level course on this subject, presuming a background in mindfulness meditation and attendance at either the earlier MAPs course on working with the judgmental mind or the July 11 daylong retreat on “Transforming the Judgmental Mind” with Donald Rothberg at Spirit Rock Center (online, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.: for registration, go to https://spirit-rock.secure.retreat.guru/program/transforming-the-judgmental-mind-dr1d21/).
