UCLA MAPS Classes
|
Mindful Awareness Practices (MAPs) are the signature educational programs of the UCLA Mindful Awareness Research Center (MARC). These six-week class series are open to the public and are offered both on the UCLA campus as well as the Buddhamouse Emporium in Claremont, CA. MAPS classes lay the foundation for participants to learn basic principles of mindfulness, to develop a personal meditation practice, to learn about the science and practice of mindfulness, and to apply the principles in daily life.
