About meditationSHIFT:
Short version
We've been teaching mindfulness and meditation for almost 15 years.
Our free guide has been shared on the Internet over 200,000 times, and we've published more than 100 articles on mindfulness, meditation, and related topics.
Our online course - "An owner's guide to your mind" - has helped tens of thousands of students around the world understand their compulsive mind, and how to stop the suffering it causes in their life.
Longer version
meditationSHIFT and "The T.A.D. Principle" were created by Jon. Chelsea runs the day-to-day operations (with help from a few others). We refer to Chelsea as the C.M.O. (Chief Mindfulness Officer).
Our mission is to help people around the world better understand and overcome the problems created by their compulsive minds.
You can talk to us directly via email, arrange a chat with us on Skype, and follow us on social media (people like viewing our photos - but they probably enjoy seeing the animals more than us). We write, teach, speak, and enjoy helping others.

Below you will find a detailed accounting of our history over the past 15 years, as well as information on how to connect with us.
History and evolution:
"The T.A.D. Principle" was released almost 15 years ago, right after the turn of the millennium. The acronym "T.A.D." (now referred to simply as "tad") stands for:
> thoughts
> actions
> destiny
It included the meditationSHIFT supplement, but "tad" was more of a treatise on how to shape your life by addressing your thoughts and your actions.
Over the years, however, our philosophy and practices evolved.
We realized that the self-improvement industry provided resources that treated the symptoms that came with unhappiness, rather than addressing the cause of unhappiness itself ("forced" positive thinking is the most prevalent self-help method...and, like most of the others, it simply doesn't work).
We took a different approach - our focus was on addressing the root cause, and providing a lasting solution.

By understanding your mind, the problems it creates in your life, and how to overcome them, you can find (or, more accurately, reveal) happiness, peace, and contentment. You learn to cultivate awareness, and break the cycle of blindly following the activity (thoughts, emotions, urges, et cetera) your mind produces.
meditationSHIFT represents the totality of our research, experience, writing, and teaching - from the concepts of "tad," to mindfulness and meditation...and everything in between.
Our course - "An owner's guide to your mind" - has received a lot of acclaim, and continues to evolve to this day (our most recent update was February 2016). It is more than "how-to-meditate" - it helps you understand how your mind works, and how you can use it as a tool instead of letting it control you.
In addition to the course, we offer one-on-one instruction and programs for businesses and groups.
Mindfulness, meditation, and insights for over a decade.
We have been talked about on numerous websites and media outlets. But, the people who have actually implemented what they learned from meditationSHIFT offer the best feedback on its effectiveness. Read testimonials on this site, and elsewhere around the Internet.
We write a lot, and our articles are featured here on our own site, on Medium, on Everyday-Mindfulness, and on other websites around the Internet. Find it all here - Words: an index of articles from meditationSHIFT.
