Unified Mindfulness

Sharing information as valuable as this is what the internet was created for. You are modern day bodhisattvas: "those that do not aspire to enlightenment purely to free themselves from suffering; they do so out of compassion in order to liberate other sentient beings". I hope that you reach around the planet and that this teaching becomes general knowledge. People of all religions will find their faith revitalized if they practice these teachings. Thank you Julianna, for an excellent presentation of your knowledge and to Shinzen for the creation of such a simple but profound way to practice.

This course is a solid introduction that I recommended to a friend who is beginning meditation. Great work!

What a great resource for new or experienced meditators. I really appreciate that you've made this available for free. It's a wonderful supplement to the book, The Science of Enlightenment. I look forward to continuing to use these practices to stir my awakening. Thank you.

This is an amazing course. I've been meditating and reading/watching/listening to other various instructions for 3ish years now, and this one stands out the most. I highly recommend it. -Wes

Very clear, the teachings on equanimity and "gone" were both illuminating for me.

I've had some exposure to the Unified Mindfulness approach before, through the Brightmind app and Shinzen Young meditations and Home Practice Program. Although I'd heard the terms before, this course helped clarify and give more insight into what they mean and how to apply them. Great resource!

Clear, precise, refreshing. Was’nt sure if I needed to take the core training as I felt I had it understood in the app Brightmind. And to be honest I did have it understood but I feel this was very helpful to deepen/ clarity the techniques for me. It does not take long either depending on your time and motivation. I enjoyed the quiz after every lesson. It really made taking the course worthwhile having the quizzes and explanations for the correct answers and incorrect answers.

I would like to say a big thank you to providing this amazing free resource. It has personally helped me redefine my practice. In particular, I was really impressed by the simplicity and effectiveness of the teaching methods and content provided. The way the visuals and presentations were laid out and explained really helped the information "stick" with me. I've since been able to be much more effective and motivated to continue with regular daily practice, as well as being able integrate the techniques to my daily life "off the cushion". As a result, when the next Foundations course is open, I will apply and will be excited to learn and take my practice further - as you say, you don't really know something until you can teach it! With regards, Tom

This free course is an amazing introduction to the power of meditation. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this invaluable information.

This program does what I previously had thought was impossible: taking an extremely refined system that can be overwhelming for beginners, and crystallizing it into a simple yet profound introduction which could be a starting point for further investigation, or an entire lifelong practice in itself.

I’m excited to access Shinzen Young’s method in this way. Thank you - the stripped down, clear specificity of the technique is already helping manage the pain associated with a recent decline in my medical condition 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Excellent presentation and learning tools. I found the material clear and to the point. My first meditation using this method went very well!

The best online program in mindfulness that I have come across. A must-do for folks keen on mindfulness.
