SUMMARY:In-Person: Free Mindful Tuneup
DESCRIPTION:In-Person: Free Mindful Tuneup \nwith David Grogan\n \nTuesday\, March 10th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET \nNew York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor \n \nMindful Tuneup is a free two-hour workshop for beginners and intermittent meditators looking to jump-start a more consistent practice. Just as a musician tunes their instrument for optimal sound\, you’ll explore how to tune your body and mind for meditation. That begins with finding a balanced posture that fosters steadiness\, clarity\, receptivity and a natural sense of awareness.  \nThrough guided practices\, you’ll learn core meditation skills—using the breath as your tuning fork\, anchoring attention when the mind drifts\, and bringing scattered thoughts into gentle alignment. Time will also be set aside during this welcoming and inclusive workshop for questions and group reflection on common meditation challenges\, as well as how to navigate busy thoughts and distractions in daily life.  \nYou’ll leave equipped with practical strategies\, fresh insights\, and lasting confidence to weave mindfulness and meditation into everyday moments\, whether you are starting fresh or seeking to deepen your practice. \nIn-Person Registration:\nPlease register below. This workshop is free\, but your dana (donations) help us sustain offerings like these. Suggested donation is $15\, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. \nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window. \n \nVolunteering \nAll of our programs rely on volunteers to support our teachers and staff with various tasks and responsibilities. Volunteering allows you to participate in our programs at no cost. To inquire about volunteering opportunities\, please fill out our inquiry form\, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
