Up to now, most programs have taught mindfulness meditation in a face-to-face setting, usually at economic cost. This approach limits the number of people who can take advantage of this training.

     This six-week course is designed to make this practice available to many people who find it impractical or impossible to attend regularly scheduled courses outside of their home. This online course would take less time than required for most people just to commute to and from formal classes outside of one’s home. All one needs is twenty to forty minutes a day for the formal practice and to be mindful during other routine activities.

     One can use a friend's computer or a public computer (in which case one may need to use a voice/cassette recorder to record the audio instructions from the computer's speaker, and print out the written instruction to read later).
