Meditation courses that pair daily practice with philosophy and science.

Waking Up is a subscription-based meditation app built around guided practice, contemplative theory, and conversations with teachers from multiple traditions. Its catalog covers mindfulness, nonduality, Zen, Stoicism, sleep, stress, life transitions, and related topics, with a structured introductory course for newcomers.

Why it stands out

  • Combines practice sessions with explanatory material on philosophy, psychology, and contemplative traditions.
  • Features well-known teachers and interdisciplinary voices rather than relying on a single meditation style.
  • Organizes content by both life situations and traditions, making it easier to explore beyond a basic course.
  • Includes a member community for deeper discussion and in-person or online connection.

Good to know

  • Access is subscription-based after the 7-day trial.
  • The approach leans into philosophy, spirituality, and consciousness studies, which may be more than users seeking only quick stress relief want.
  • The community forum is limited to members.
  • It is a wellness and meditation resource, not a substitute for clinical mental health care.
