Waking Up isn’t just another meditation app—it’s a new operating system for your mind, and a guide to living a better life. You’ll not only discover a deeper approach to mindfulness than you’ll find elsewhere; you’ll also learn wisdom, insights, and philosophy to help transform how you see yourself and the world around you.
 
Sam Harris, neuroscientist and best-selling author, created Waking Up to be the resource he wished he’d had when he began exploring meditation and mindfulness over 30 years ago.

Waking Up is free for anyone who can’t afford it. We never want money to be the reason why someone can’t benefit from what we’ve built.
