Intro to Mindfulness-Based Habit Change - InsightLA Meditation

Financial Support

Our mission is to make all of our programs accessible. Every fee-based offering has a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots available to support self-identified people of color, members of marginalized groups (queer people, transgender people, and people with disabilities) and those in financial need (those for whom the cost to attend is not financially possible).

These spots are offered on a first come, first served basis. Please pay at the highest level you can afford. In order for this support to be available, we rely on those who can afford to pay the full price to do so.

Find out if spots are available by clicking REGISTER NOW on the event you are interested in.

Refund and Event Policies

Are you yearning to break free from one or more unhelpful habits? We all have cravings or unskillful tendencies that are triggered by discomfort, anxiety or the uncertainties of everyday life.

In this online session with Robert Lurye, learn why habits are so hard to overcome, why willpower fails, and what we can do instead to change unwanted behaviors.

Mindfulness-Based Habit Change
Mindfulness-Based Habit Change (MBHC) is an evidence-based program based in part on the research of Dr. Judson Brewer. The program introduces us to the science of how habits are formed and teaches ancient strategies and practices to help us move past cravings and everyday addictions.

Learn how mindfulness can help us become more aware of the craving cycle and disenchanted with its results. Explore how curiosity and heartfeltness serve as rewarding replacements for our most unskillful habits.

Who is this class for?
This introductory session teaches the fundamental principles of Mindfulness-Based Habit Change. Expect an introduction to the habit loop and reward-based learning, a variety of short mindful awareness practices, and group discussion.

Participants interested in deepening their experience may wish to continue with the 6-week programs:
Unwinding Anxiety through Mindfulness-Based Habit Change
Mindful Eating: Mindfulness-Based Habit Change

This is an online course. Join us LIVE on Zoom from the comfort of your own home.
