On paper, everything works.
In real life, you’re exhausted.
Your thoughts race. Your nervous system feels constantly “on.” And the voice in your head keeps asking why this feels harder than it should.
Here’s the truth: nothing is wrong with you.
You haven’t been taught how to pause, reset, and respond differently. This 6-week mindfulness and self-compassion journey exists to change that. Gently, practically, and without pressure to be perfect.
“I’ve been meditating for many years but am less familiar with mindfulness practices. I found a much deeper level of awareness with Lauren’s teachings and guidance. You always came prepared with incredible info, inspo, wonderful quotes, stories, and most of all an authentic and honest approach.”

Meet Your Guide—Lauren Abrams.
Hi, I’m Lauren, mindfulness teacher, podcast host of 52 Weeks of Hope, and a passionate advocate for helping you pause, breathe, and remember who you are.
Here’s what you need to know about me:
I’ve walked through burnout and come out the other side with practical tools, deep self-compassion, and the joy of being fully present. I created this course to share that transformation with you.
I’m trained by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach (two of the most respected mindfulness teachers in the world), and I bring my background as a lawyer to make these ancient practices accessible, practical, and real.
But here’s the most important thing:
I believe you happened on here for a reason. You don’t have to do it perfectly. You just have to begin
Come as you are. No pressure. No perfection.
Just presence, practice, and a community of real humans showing up for themselves.
It’s easy. (You just sit!) I’d love to have you.
-
Perfect. That means you’re human.
Mindfulness isn’t about stopping your thoughts. That’s impossible and honestly kind of a setup for failure. It’s about changing your relationship with them.
In this course, I’ll show you how to work with your busy mind instead of fighting it. You’ll learn that a wandering mind isn’t a sign you’re “bad at meditation,” it’s actually part of the practice.
-
I get it. You’re already maxed out.
That’s exactly why this course is designed for real life, not a monastery.
Each Wednesday session is just one hour. And the daily practices I’ll teach you take as little as 2-5 minutes. You can do them while waiting for your coffee to brew, sitting in your car before work, or lying in bed at night.
This isn’t about adding more to your plate. It’s about finding space within the chaos.
And honestly? If you’re this burned out, you can’t afford NOT to pause.
-
Each week, we’ll meet live online for:
Guided meditation practice (so you don’t have to figure it out alone)
Teaching on that week’s theme (grounded in real mindfulness tradition but totally accessible)
Group connection and Q&A (because community matters and you’re not the only one struggling)
Practical tools you can use immediately in your daily life
You’ll leave each session feeling calmer, clearer, and more connected to yourself.
And if you miss a session? No problem. Recordings will be available.
-
This is the question that matters most, so let me be straight with you:
This course won’t magically make your life less busy. Your to-do list will still be long. Your inbox will still be full.
But here’s what WILL change:
You’ll stop running on autopilot and start responding to life instead of just reacting
You’ll notice the warning signs of burnout before you hit the wall
You’ll have actual tools to calm your nervous system in under 2 minutes
You’ll start treating yourself with compassion instead of harsh criticism
You’ll remember what it feels like to be present in your own life
Bottom line: This isn’t busywork. This is the pause that helps you show up better for everything else.
-
Absolutely not.
In fact, beginners often get the most out of this course because you don’t have years of “I’m doing it wrong” stories built up.
If you’ve never meditated before, you’re in the right place.
If you’ve tried and “failed” before, you’re in the right place.
If you’ve been meditating for years but feel stuck, you’re in the right place.
Come as you are.
-
Good. Healthy skepticism means you’re thinking critically.
Look, I’m not asking you to believe in anything mystical or woo-woo. This isn’t about crystals and incense (though if that’s your thing, great).
This is about neuroscience-backed practices that help regulate your nervous system, reduce cortisol, and literally change your brain’s response to stress.
Self-compassion isn’t soft. It’s strategic.
Studies show that people who practice self-compassion have lower anxiety, less depression, greater resilience, and better follow-through on their goals.
Translation: Being kind to yourself actually works better than beating yourself up. Science says so.
FAQ’s
“Thank you so much, Lauren. I felt truly safe and supported. Love your depth, plus your sense of humor. I found it very easy to get into the meditations you lead (and it’s usually very difficult for me to get into meditation) Great job!!”

Still Not Sure?
I get it. You’re busy. You’re skeptical. You’ve tried things before that didn’t work.
But here’s my promise to you:
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about practice. This isn’t about adding more. It’s about finding space. This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about coming home to yourself.
Six weeks from now, you could be:
• Sleeping better
• Reacting less and responding more
• Actually enjoying moments with your family instead of just surviving them
• Feeling like yourself again
Or you could be exactly where you are now. The choice is yours.
But if you’re ready for something to change—truly ready—I’m here to guide you.
Course starts October 28th
Still on the fence?
Here’s what makes this different from other meditation courses:
You don’t need to sit cross-legged on a cushion for an hour. We’re practicing mindfulness for real life.
I’m not going to make you “think positive” or pretend everything is fine. We work with reality as it is.
This is a GROUP journey. You’ll be connected with other high-achieving professionals who get it - the pressure, the exhaustion, the constant juggling.
It’s only 6 weeks. Not a years-long commitment. Just six Wednesdays to see what shifts.
I’ve been where you are. Burned out, overwhelmed, wondering if this is just how life is now. It’s not. There’s another way.
Remember: You don’t have to do this perfectly. You just have to begin. Hit the button. Reserve your spot. Your future self will thank you.
