About Event

Rewire stress. Strengthen attention. Create habits that actually stick. In this four-week course, we explore mindfulness not as a trend or a quick fix — but as a trainable skill grounded in neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience.

NOTE! Signing up for this event means committing to 4 sessions!

Habits don’t change because we “try harder.”

They change when we understand how stress, emotion, and attention shape behavior — and when we learn how to work with them skillfully.

Each 60-minute session includes:

  • A guided meditation practice

  • Accessible neuroscience and psychology

  • Reflection and discussion

  • Practical tools for daily life

More information is available here.

This course may be supportive if you:

  • Feel stuck in habits that don’t align with your values

  • Struggle with stress-driven behaviors

  • Want a science-grounded approach to mindfulness

  • Prefer practical tools over abstract philosophy

  • Are curious about how attention and the nervous system shape
    behavior

No prior meditation experience required.

This class will be taught by Robin Baltrushes, a physician who serves as Chief of Health Education and Lifestyle Medicine for Kaiser Permanents in the East Bay. This class is part of her training at the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.
