Classes & Events
UCLA's Mindful Awareness Research Center offers classes, daylong events, workshops, a weekly podcast, free guided meditations, and free virtual drop-in meditations.
Drop-In Meditations
Every Monday and Thursday at 12:30pm, MARC holds free, drop-in, 30-minute guided meditation sessions.
You can join live or listen to the recorded meditations by downloading the UCLA Mindful App, streaming*, or downloading these podcasts from our site.
Mindful Awareness Practices
Mindful Awareness Practices are the signature evidence-based educational programs of MARC. These class series are open to the public and to all UCLA staff, faculty, and students.
Daylong Retreats
MARC programs numerous daylong retreats throughout the year. Some daylongs are designed for beginners, and some are designed to help deepen an already existing mindfulness practice with exercises such as eating, walking, and sitting meditations.
