Waking Up: Meditation & Wisdom

One of the main things that made me pursue this app, is the app support itself. They are the kindest people I’ve come across. They will do anything to make sure that you get access to this app. I really can’t tell you how much I value that. You already make the world a better place.

This app is absolutely transformational. By small baby steps implementing major shifts in how you think, percieve and live in general. Absolutely love it! 5/5, 10/10, 100/100

Super grateful for this app. It has unlimited value in it, and everybody looking to expand their consciousness and awareness should try it!

Everyone has to find their own way to a meditation practice or something equivalent. This is it for me. Other apps didn’t work as well, although I made some good first strides into meditations, but the Waking Up app really lands differently. There’s practical advice and everything is so understandable and easily explained. Regarding meditation, I’ve finally learned how to ‘recognize’ my thoughts, which had never happened before with different programs. It’s always something new, you never feel like you’re in a repetitive loop in the lessons, it keeps adding and adding to your knowledge. I truly recommend this app, full 100%! Thank you to my colleague who showed me the app! Also, the customer support is so efficient and forthcoming! Five huge stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This app is great for beginners and also for long time meditators 🙏🏻

This is the best meditation app so far (I have tried several). This app has an additional value not only how to concentrate & meditate, but how be stronger than your thoughts. I enjoy it very very much.

This is the best one yet.

I find waking up to be the greatest app I have ever used and a truly life-changing experience. I struggled my entire life with a lot of stress, anxiety, and depression, and also was completely subsumed in many pursuits that didn’t really make me happy, but I didn’t have the awareness to see the mechanics of my own mind. Waking Up changed all of that for me by giving me the tools to observe my own experience. My entire sense of what life is about has changed for the better, and I’ve now recognized that the quality of my own mind is the basis of real contentment and well-being. I am immensely grateful to have had the chance to learn these truths and be able to apply them in my life, I would say that there has never been anything more important that I have ever experienced. thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart for doing this work and helping people like me completely transform our lives for the better.

I have tried a few different meditation apps, and I enjoy waking up the most. It has a way of really teaching you the fundamentals — not in a super time intensive way, but through practice. I felt like this meaty substance was missing from other apps and sessions in those apps. One practical thing I’ve found in this app, and not others, is the direction of attention towards a given thought when the mind wonders. Paying attention to that thought and watching it unspool. My practice with this app has helped me to become a more even keeled and present person. I highly recommend it.

Easily the most important app on my device. The meditations are simple and concise yet varied and deep enough to keep your proficiency on awareness up to speed. That alone makes it worth it, but there is also content on “theory” and “life” separated into easily digestible segments. These end up being just as essential to your spiritual and mental well-being as meditation practices are. The only drawback to all of this (and probably an unfair critique) is that it is all “audio”. Specifically, the “theory” and “life” segments. That obviously makes it difficult to take notes and revisit important facts and arguments that you’d like to commit to memory. But, most of this content is written by the guest speakers who wrote book(s) on the content they’re sharing anyways on the app (e.g. Matthew Walker, Cal Newport, etc). Even if this remains an audio only app for the next decade or two, it’s still the most important one on my device.
