UCLA Mindful Classes

UCLA Mindful classes are evidence-based educational programs. Our class series are open to the public and to all UCLA staff, faculty, and student and are available in-person, live-online or a pre-recorded format.

Our classes lay the foundation to understand basic principles of mindfulness, develop a personal meditation practice, and to apply the principles in their daily life on an ongoing basis. Each class is a combination of lecture, practice, and group feedback and discussion.
