This isn't another app to practise alone
If you already know how to meditate and you keep stopping, that is the problem this solves. Not more technique. A time, and people who notice.
It's a real, living community that meets each morning. There's something about knowing others are sitting with you — gently keeping you company, and keeping you turning up — that a solitary timer on a screen never quite manages. You don't have to be disciplined. You just have to show up, and let the rhythm carry you.
Wherever you are in the world
The live sit is at 7:30am UK, and that is the heart of it. Come when you can.
And when you cannot, the day's meditation is waiting in your app. A lunch break in New York, an evening in Sydney, a quiet five minutes in between. Members join from all over the world and make it work.
No commute, no studio, no camera. Just somewhere to be at the same time each morning, and a recording for the mornings you miss.
Rooted in ACT — the science of a freer mind
Most meditation apps stop at "relax." We go further. The Club is built around Acceptance & Commitment Training (ACT) — a gentle, evidence-based approach to three things: being present, opening up to whatever you're feeling, and doing what truly matters to you.
Practised over time, this builds what researchers call psychological flexibility — and the evidence is striking: it improves stress, mood, focus, relationships and resilience. In other words, it quietly improves almost everything else.
And it's far from fringe. ACT is used within the NHS, reflected in World Health Organization stress guidance, and drawn on by leading organisations and elite athletes — right up to Olympic medallists.
Begin with a single breath
You don't need willpower, or an hour you don't have. The Club is built on the latest science of behaviour change: start impossibly small — just one conscious breath — and let the habit grow gradually, naturally, from there.
Tiny, repeatable, kind. That's how a practice actually lasts. Every session is beautifully produced, with optional captions, so you can simply press play and arrive.
A different practice each day — something for everyone
No two mornings are the same, so there's always something that fits how you feel:
- Mondays — Mindfulness or nondual meditation
- Tuesdays — Breathing-exercise meditation
- Wednesdays — Reflection on a piece of wisdom
- Thursdays — Acceptance & Commitment–based meditation
- Fridays — Story-based meditation
- Saturdays — A longer guided sit: self-compassion, body scan, loving kindness
- Sundays — Thirty minutes of silence together, with a soft bell every five minutes
And beyond the daily live sit, a whole library to browse any time — gathered by theme, from a 7-sit Start here for beginners through to Taoist Wisdom and Nondual Awareness.
For everyone — wherever you're starting
Whether you've never meditated in your life or you've practised for decades, you'll feel at home. I guide every session gently, so beginners are never lost — and there's enough depth to keep experienced meditators nourished.
And if what you've really been missing is a live, daily community to connect with — people turning toward stillness together, every single day — this is exactly that.

"Most of us don't need more information about meditation. We need company, and a time to actually do it. That's what the Club is — a daily appointment with your own stillness, kept together."Shamash Alidina

Frequently asked questions
I'm not in the UK — can I still join?
Absolutely — members join from all over the world. Come live at 7:30am UK if it suits, or simply play each day's meditation whenever works for you, in your own time zone.
I'm a complete beginner — is that okay?
Completely. Most members started exactly there. I guide every session step by step — you just follow along.
What if I can't make the live session?
Then you play it later, and 200+ past sessions are there too. But the mornings you do make it are the ones that build the habit, so come when you can.
Do I have to be on camera?
Never. Cameras stay off — come in your pyjamas, with bed hair, and truly relax.
Can I cancel?
Any time, in a couple of clicks. There's no long-term commitment.
What if money's tight?
Mindfulness should be available to everyone. We offer scholarships of 50–80% off — just get in touch and ask.
