We started meditationSHIFT in 2003. Our instruction is built on one core principle:
There's what's happening, and there are the stories our minds tell us about what's happening.
Most of us go through life caught up in those stories, and it results in the struggles we deal with every day:
People come to us to find relief, and to improve their mental well-being. If you're here for the same reasons, our 15-day self-study course can help.
Terry Cosgrove, Austin, Texas:
- stress
- endless worry
- extreme emotions
- a lack of focus
- an inability to break bad habits
- feelings of anxiety and depression
- a negative self-image
- sleep problems
- tension headaches
- chronic pain, especially in the neck, shoulders, and back
- and more (a lot more!)

No apps, no guided meditations, no cartoons, and no confusion - just a laser-sharp focus on proper instruction and how to apply it to your life. meditationSHIFT teaches you to be self-sufficient, and helps you realize the benefits of meditation and mindfulness (something other programs usually fall short of).
