Jhana in days, not decades
We're featured in
Jhanas are an escalating pleasure loop, the intensity of which is comparable — depending on whom you ask — to an orgasm, an MDMA-induced cuddle puddle, or the thrill of new love.
Nadia Asparouhova
Mindfulness is one thing. Jhāna meditation is stranger, stronger, and going mainstream.
Oshan Jarow
It strikes me that jhanas could be something of a cheat code for life, one that’s long gone unnoticed in our culture.
Claudia Canavan
The mainstreaming of the jhanas may represent the next frontier of the mindfulness movement...as with falling in love, ordinary speech doesn’t seem to do them justice.
Naina Bajekal
Jhana bliss...is not like the little uptick in well-being that comes with mindfulness meditation. It is not like a runner’s high. 'This stuff is really powerful,' says the director of the Meditation Research Program at Harvard Medical School... tears of joy will sometimes stream down a meditator’s face.

Altered states alter traits
One week of training and the reactivity that used to run you stops showing up the same way. It becomes easier to be the person you aspire to be.
Our teaching philosophy
Meditation can change your life quickly
Meditation is more than stress reduction. It can bring you life-changing altered states that improve the rest of your life. Modern research shows that this is real, and it’s not just for monks. Streamlined teaching makes it possible in hours, not years.
Experimentation, not dogma
Skilled meditators don't follow instructions blindly, they're scientists of their own experience. The Jhourney Method teaches you to innovate for yourself, and is inspired by tradition, neuroscience, and learning science.
Come for altered states, stay for personal growth
Bliss-on-demand is great. What’s even better is the way inner regulation reduces the gap between intention and action. We see alumni living with less fear, more altruism, less stress, more love, less indecision, more effectiveness.
Attend a meditation retreat
Our retreat intensives blend the best of traditional meditation retreats and high-touch classroom experiences. Learn, meditate, get feedback.
what people say
It's not really about the intensity. It's about the journey.
Probably one of the nicest things that's ever happened to me, like up there with beautiful events like marriage.
David Phelan
Songwriter for Zayn, Sia, and BLACKPINK
Absolutely amazing. A secret nobody is talking about, and I’ve never felt anything like it. I’m so grateful; I’m a better and happier person.

To know there’s this infinite resource within me that’s accessible without external conditions…it’s just crazy. You can’t unsee that.
Zach Lauzon
Google software engineer
This experience was the best thing that’s happened to me this year. I had no idea how enjoyable meditation could be.

Why would I have a second piece of chocolate cake when I know I can beat that by 100x in 10 minutes with my eyes closed?
Nick Cammarata
AI Safety Researcher & former founder
The jhanas may be the single most important thing on the planet right now. You may think it’s superintelligence or longevity. That’s nothing without wellbeing.
Shamil Chandaria
Oxford neuroscientist, ex-DeepMind

The jhanas are meditative states that bring extraordinary pleasure, like the opposite of a panic attack. Learning to cultivate openhearted joy on tap makes it easier to be the person you aspire to be.
