Dr. Ali, of Wise Heart Mindfulness, is an authorized affiliated MAPs teacher with UCLA’s Mindful Awareness Research Center (MARC) at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Behavior.
Wise Heart Mindfulness offers UCLA MARC’s, MAPs I virtual classes. MAPs are secular, evidence-based mindfulness practices rooted in neuroscience and psychology. Mindfulness is a powerful means to be present in your life.
"I delight in seeing students and clients cultivate their innate human capacity to connect with the experience of calm, ease, well-being, and emotional self-regulation. Mindfulness is a direct first-person investigation into the architecture of our own inner landscape. The more gently we come to awareness and accept and befriend this inner landscape, the more kindness, compassion, equanimity and emotional intelligence we manifest into the worlds we inhabit.” – Dr. Ali |
