Discover your mind.
Join Sam Harris—neuroscientist, philosopher, and bestselling author—on a course that will teach you to meditate, reason more effectively, and deepen your understanding of yourself and others. Meditation is often taught as though it were an ancient version of an executive stress ball, but it’s more like the Large Hadron Collider. Waking Up users quickly understand that meditation is about more than feeling good in the moment—there are fundamental discoveries to be made in the laboratory of their own minds.
• Waking Up guides you through a 50-day introductory course, teaching a progressive series of meditation techniques.
• Waking Up also contains a growing curriculum of short talks by Sam Harris on a wide variety of topics relevant for deepening your practice.
About Sam Harris
Sam Harris is the author of five New York Times bestsellers, including Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion, and the host of the Waking Up Podcast. His writing and public lectures cover a wide range of topics—neuroscience, meditation, moral philosophy, religion, rationality—but generally focus on how a growing understanding of ourselves and the world is changing our sense of how we should live. Sam received a degree in philosophy from Stanford University and a Ph.D. in neuroscience from UCLA. He has practiced meditation for over 30 years and has studied with many Tibetan, Indian, Burmese, and Western meditation teachers, both in the United States and abroad.
