Many medical centers and clinics in Northern California offer MBSR (mindfulness-based stress reduction) classes. They can be fairly expensive but it sounds like the health benefits outweigh the upfront cost. There are lots of less expensive meditation classes or no-charge gatherings in Northern California as well.
Happy meditating,
