Waking Up isn’t just another meditation app—it’s a new operating system for your mind.
We help you discover the true purpose of meditation, and give you pressure-tested wisdom for living a more examined, fulfilling life. Here, you won’t find any New Age fluff or religious dogma—just powerful training and insights. The most common word our members use to describe Waking Up is “life-changing.”
Whether you’ve never meditated before or you’ve attended multiple silent retreats, Waking Up teaches you an approach to mindfulness that opens the door to a deeper understanding of yourself—and a new way of seeing the world. And we’ve brought together leading scholars and philosophers to help you explore life’s most important questions and topics, ranging from psychedelics and neuroscience to Stoicism and happiness.
In our Introductory Course, author, neuroscientist, and philosopher Sam Harris walks you step-by-step through both the theory and practice of meditation. Many members have told us they’ve gotten more benefit from the first week of the Introductory Course than months, or even years, spent with other apps. And you’ll have access to a number of meditation programs with top teachers, along with courses on effective altruism, time management, sleep, and more.

Waking Up is not just another meditation app. Whether you’re a beginning or advanced meditator, Waking Up opens the door to a deeper understanding of yourself—and to a new way of being in the world.
Waking Up features world-renowned meditation teachers, scientists, and scholars to pressure test ancient wisdom. Our goal is to invoke a radical shift in perspective using the best minds in the world to do it. This includes series and lessons on a diverse range of philosophies and practices—from mindfulness, Stoicism, Zen, walking meditations, and an “SOS” practice series that features emergency meditations for life’s crisis moments. We continue to add new conversations and sessions with luminaries such as Joseph Goldstein on the Buddhist meditation path, James Fadiman on psychedelics and the self, the incandescent poetry of David Whyte, and the compassionate wisdom of Tara Brach. We have many new series in development.
We also set out to create a visually compelling app. That’s why we collaborate with dozens of talented artists—known and unknown—from around the world, chosen because they reflect the depth, thoughtfulness, and quality of our content (think modern art meets legendary album covers).
Thank you for your practice, and enjoy the app.

Waking Up is not just another meditation app. Whether you’re a beginning or advanced meditator, Waking Up opens the door to a deeper understanding of yourself—and to a new way of being in the world. We’re excited to announce the app has been fully reimagined and redesigned.
First of all, we’ve collaborated with dozens of artists—known and unknown—from around the world. They were chosen because they reflect the depth, thoughtfulness, and quality of our content (think modern art meets legendary album covers). And we’ve created a new logo that will give us a better frame for our Daily Heads—and, as you’ll see, this will allow for some very cool collaborations with outside artists in the future.
Next, we’ve continued to feature even more meditation teachers, scientists, and scholars. They’re helping us pressure-test the ancient wisdom we’re committed to decoding and sharing. As always, our goal is to invoke a radical shift in perspective using the best minds in the world to do it. This includes more series and lessons on a diverse range of philosophies and practices—from Stoicism, Zen, walking meditations, and a brand-new “SOS” practice series that features emergency meditations for life’s crisis moments. Also, we’ve added new conversations and sessions with such luminaries as Joseph Goldstein on the Buddhist meditation path, James Fadiman on psychedelics and the self, the incandescent poetry of David Whyte, and the compassionate wisdom of Tara Brach. We have many new series in development.
Finally, we’ve refined our navigation for a cleaner and more intuitive way to explore our library. This includes descriptions of every meditation, lesson, and conversation in the app, so you can easily find what you’re looking for.

There are hundreds of meditation apps on the market, and several do a fine job of teaching the basic principles of mindfulness. But most present the practice as though it were an ancient version of an executive stress ball—whereas it’s more like the Large Hadron Collider.
The purpose of meditation isn’t merely to reduce stress or to make you feel better in the moment—it’s to make fundamental discoveries in the laboratory of your own mind.
Now you can toggle between 10 and 20 minute Daily Meditations.
