People who meditate claim it helps them pull creative ideas, inspiring works of art and brilliant solutions to everyday problems – seemingly out of thin air.

Richard Bach, the author of the iconic book Jonathan Livingston Seagull, used meditation for the inspiration to finish his masterpiece.

A DEEPER CONNECTION WITH THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU

Meditation strengthens your connection with the people around you, and helps you empathize with them. Need to resolve an argument with your partner? Connect with your troubled teenager? Negotiate with a boss or co-worker? Try meditating first.

A MAGNETIC ATTRACTION TO WEALTH & SUCCESS

Companies like Apple, Google and even Mindvalley ourselves have known this for years: sitting down to meditate every day can do wonders for your bottom line.

A DEEPER SENSE OF SELF–AWARENESS & A CONNECTION TO YOUR UNIQUE PURPOSE

When you meditate, you gain a deeper understanding of what this purpose is, and what you must do to achieve it. No more feeling lost, stuck or unfulfilled. Meditation is thus an essential part of your spiritual growth.
